Middle names to go with Ava

And yes I do know its really popular at the moment, but its the only girls name that DH and I agree on (don't get me started on boys names....)

I quite like Ava Elizabeth and I think a longer mn works with Ava but I am wondering if there are other names that would go too. Need inspiration! Surname starts with G.

I know an Ava Lily (but I think I would use a more unusual middle name)

Ava Primrose?

Ava Elizabeth is lovely too :)

I have an Ava Rose :)
Ava Elizabeth was also on our shortlist.
We certainly havent come across that many Avas, ours is 12 months and I know of a couple but havent met a single one!

Rose, Penelope, Naomi, Joy, Elizabeth, Ruby, Raeanne, Louise/Louisa, Suzanna, Hope, Eleanor, Jocelyn....I think they all go nicely :)

Ava Louise.

I actually think a middle name ending in 'a' runs together beautifully, as long as it's a longer, 3-syllable type name.

Just avoid the usual, default middle names - May/Mae, Rose, Grace and Lily.

Also think you should avoid - Rose, Mae and Lily!

Ava Elizabeth is beautiful.

Some fab suggestions here, thank you.

Love Ava Charlotte and Ava Alexandra. Unfortunately, DS2's MN is Alexander so I don't think we can use that one. Sophia is on my short list too.

I think Grace, Lily and Louise are all pretty common MN's (Louise was the MN of my generation) and I would rather avoid if possible. I do like Ava Rose though.

perpetually I'm glad you haven't come across lots of Avas. Hopefully it won't be as common as I thought.

My niece is called Eva Elizabeth, pronounced Ava

I have an Ava Bly but she was very nearly Ava Elizabeth.

Also really like Ava Lucia.

I have an Ava Elizabeth and I still love her name as much as I did the day we picked it. We chose Ava knowing it was popular but so far we haven't met another where I live either (DD is 2.6)
