Middle name for Evelyn

[raininginbaltimore]

Ok, so after much thought (and many thread on here!) we might have decided on Evelyn. There are other possibilities, but in those cases Evelyn would be a middle name.

So if I get my way we go for Evelyn, any good suggestions for middle names?

How about Rose?

Rose
Ruth
May

am thinking a one syllable name for some reason, seems to flow...

I like Rose

others

Elizabeth
Jayne
Louisa

My daughter is Evelyn Alice and I think it's beautiful!

Definately Rose.

Yeah, I was thinking one syllable as well, maybe because Evelyn is pretty long (but pretty!!! I really like it) so something short in the middle, although I suppose maybe it depends on what you like with your last name? Perhaps Grace (but I like Rose like raining said as well). Although I'm a sucker for something a bit seasonal, like for example if she was born in May then May would work (obv I know you're not due in May). Woooo! Exciting!

It does, of course, depend on your preferred pronunciation - duh is Irish so a short eh at the beginning works for us. If you are going to use an ee sound then single syllable names would work better.

I love Evelyn Rose. Just need to work on dh.

Joy?

It would be eh-ve-lyn, as opposed to long ee-ve-lyn.

My grandmother was Evelyn Rose. I have always thought it was a lovely name. I wanted DD to be Evelyn Alice, but couldn't convince DH.

Alice is actually one of my our other names!

Rose for sure.
