Marvellous middle names needed!

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

I cannot for the life of me whittle down this short list,I think it's because I need good middle names for them.
Surname is double barrelled (3 syllables in total)

We were considering using a family mn (Mabel or Nicholas) but the combos aren't grabbing us at the moment...so,inspiration needed on middle names for these first names!

First name list,Girls:

Etta
Ida
Vita
Merryn
Sylvie
Romy
Mabel

First name list,Boys:

Idris
Rafe
Kit
Otis

Rufus

Jude

DD2 has the middle name Joy which is beautiful and under used I think, but I also think that it goes with most names so will not be any help if you do like it in whittling down the list!

Sorry

I'd quite like a longish middle name,
Or one with a bit of 'impact' like Hero or Hera...or...umm...Juno...but not those I don't think.

Miranda

Octavia

Fabienne

Delphine

Athene

Claude

Xavier

Conrad

Gabriel

Laurence

Ooh,nice list Basking love Delphine,Claude and Xavier...how do you pronounce Athene?

I think it is Atheene. Beautiful name. Which first names are you leaning more towards?

Also thought of

Callisto and Constantine

I'm not sure,I lean towards one,and then re read the list and fall for the others again,none are sticking out,it's driving me a bit nuts
DP likes them all and is happy for me to choose one,so...I'm stuck!

Athene is beautiful

Love Etta

Etta Romilly Mabel flows well.

Rufus Nicholas James sounds good too.

It is so hard. Don't torture yourself, wait until you meet her or him. You have a lovely list.

Just came on to say I love your girls names (havent looked at the boys yet), so MNs Iwould go for woukd be

Etta Constance
Ida Valentina
Vita Teresa
Merryn Sophia
Sylvie Annabel
Romy Jude
Mabel Elizabeth

I like both of those combos Ruprekt not overly keen on James though...

Boys names Iove Otis, Kit and Jude so would suggest
Otis Theodore
Kit Nathaniel
Jude Lawrence

Thank you Basking I have ages to agonise yet.
The other DC's names just jumped out quite early on..DD (4) has some issues with change and is desperate to know the baby's name,so am I,to be honest

I'm liking Demelza...

Etta was the top of the list for ages,but someone on another thread commented,saying it was lovely but not if our surname was Carrot,and now I can't get the 'Ate-a' connotations out of my head.

Greta might replace it...

Rufus Nicolas Miles

Rufus Nicholas Maxwell.

Hmm....not grabbing me...needs something more,umm punchy?!
that's not quite the word I'm looking for...

Ida Valentina is so pretty...DP isn't keen though

Rufus Nicholas Rex

Rufus Nicholas Milo
