A middle name for Cleo?

Our surname is 2 syllables beginning with H. Here are our ideas so far:

because we like the meaning:
Cleo Faith
Cleo Grace
Cleo Joy

after family members:
Cleo Emma
Cleo Audrey

just because we like the name:
Cleo Eliza

Any thoughts? Or other suggestions?

Will she be Cleopatra, nickname Cleo? In which case I like
Cleopatra Faith
Cleopatra Joy

But if she will be just Cleo then a longer middle name will sound nice
Cleo Elizabeth
Cleo Penelope

I think OP would have said Cleopatra if she was going to call her Cleopatra Grin

Not that it's much help, but I think all the middle names you mentioned sound good with Cleo. Probably wouldn't choose Grace just because it's a very popular middle name at the moment.

Go with the one that feels right for you.

Rather random but my first thought was Cleo Catherine! I agree a longer name would sound better. TBH I'm not sure any of your list sounds right to me. Very unhelpful post, sorry! Grin

Cleo Gisele?

DessieLou · 20/10/2012 12:25

Oooh Giselle, thats good!

We have a Cleo and her middle name is Elena. Cleo is a Greek name so you might want to go along those lines.

What IS Cleo short for?

othersideofchannel · 20/10/2012 21:48

Because just Cleo reminds me of the Renault Clio....Blush

serin · 20/10/2012 22:33

Francesca
Elizabeth

shoobidoo · 20/10/2012 22:58

I'd think Cleopatra.

ellesabe · 21/10/2012 19:48

Cleo can be short for Cleopatra but we are just sticking with Cleo which is also a name in its own right. It means 'glory'.

Thanks for all the suggestions :)
