We are expecting DD1 in Oct. First name is decided, but OH is insistent I don't tell anyone before she arrives, not even on MN, call it an obsessive thing! But suffice to say it is very average and ends in an 'a'. We now want quite an unusual middle name, but are really struggling. Every other day we come up with something and think we've cracked it and in 24 hrs have changed our minds - argh! These are our most recent ideas to give you some sense of where we're at:

Isis
Hebe
Kerezen (we prefer Kerenza but it doesn't work with first name ending in 'a')

Others we quite like but are slightly less unusual include Pearl, Cecily and Astrid.

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Can I suggest Ilona. It was my aunts name in Hungary. I love it. But it doesn't go with our surname.
Knew a LG who was an Isis. I like the name.

I don't like Hebe. My daughters nick and for some odd reason is Geebee so that would be really bad. Heebee Geebee. Not good.

Nickname not nick and

What about Verena? Nice name.

Undine or Ondine

I like Hepzibah, Ursula, Zenobiah and Hera but I see you've got a first name ending in 'a';
Clemence
Vivienne
