Going to register DD next week but still have not decided on a middle name - any ideas please? Her first name is Orla, Surname beginning with G.

Thought of Marie but then her initials would be OMG (oh my god!). Also prob nonames beginning with G as then it would be OGG (that neanderthal mummy they dug up)....

All the names I seem to like also end in -a and sound strange when put after Orla.

Do you think another 4 letter name would sound better, or a longer one? All suggestions gladly received! TIA!!

I have an Orla! Good choice.Grin
She has no middle name by choice but I nearly chose Orla Maria.
Also like Orla Clementine, Orla Siobhan and Orla Colette.

Orla Maeve sounds nice, but you would have the same OMG problem.

Although TBH by the time she is old enough to care OMG probably won't be used any more.

Orla Sian is nice too.
