To ask for a middle name for Arabella at the eleventh hour?

[ArabellaWhat]

Bad form I know, to post this on AIBU. However our baby is almost at the age limit for having her name registered and we've not given any thought to a middle name. My brain isn't working and she will want milk shortly so if any of you can suggest a name so we can get this form filled out I will be grateful

Louise?

May

Rose?

Grace?

Don't bother with a middle name, they aren't compulsory, or choose a grandparent.

Arabella Marie?

Jane

Doreen

not a Harry potter fan here nooooo

I love the name Arabella

its is so lovely it does not need another name to compliment it

My name is as lovely and I do not have a middle name

Beatrice

(If ours is a girl her middle name is going to be Joy after a grandparent)

Thanks for the suggestions! My DH (who hates Arabella - the name, not the baby) would like an unfussy name like those above so I'll run these past him. I'd have liked Eleanor or Evelyn but I'm conceding defeat.

OYSTERBABE you are right and I don't have a middle name but for fairness as her siblings have middle names I'm going to allocate one to her too :)

I'd say either a single syllable or 3 syllabled name. A Classic, but not one beginning with a vowel. Jane, Rose, Margaret, Madeline?

Rose
Ann
Fay.

How many syllables in the surname, and does it begin with a vowel or consonant?

These things matter.

Ava or Marilyn - both fimstars. But think of a woman you admire (RL ie grandparent? Or just someone in the public eye) its nice to have a name your mum loved

Is there a name that crops up more than once in the wider family (either as a first or middle name)? Or perhaps the name of the most senior/elderly female relative?

Jean
Joy
Beth

Ivy
Elsie
Araminta (why the hell not!)
Elizabeth (Our own dear queen...)
Leia (topical)

Jane

I like joy as well.

Alexandra

Jennifer

Elizabeth

Diane

Edwina

Emily. It's my daughters middle name, her first name is similar sounding to Arabella and has the same number of syllables. Emily was actually our choice as her first name but a friend beat us to it and we felt we couldn't use it.

Love Arabella too, it was also on my list.

Bella jane sounds lovely
