Middle name for Ariana

10 replies

My DW is expecting our 2nd child

We're looking at Ariana for a girls name and dexter for a boy.

But we are struggling for a middle name for Ariana. As dd has middle name of Mae so we can't have that one even though I think we can if use it with
a different spelling

Any advice welcome

Why would you use May/Mae again? There are hundreds of names out there!

What are the females in your families called? Why not honour a grandmother? I do think middle names should have meaning beyond just liking the name.

One syllable I reckon

Grace
Faith
Beth
Kate
Jane
Pearl
Hope

I think it probably ought to be a one syllable middle name. Like Mae. Have you any family names you could use?
Ariana Rose
Ariana Fay/Faye
Ariana Jane
Ariana Blanche
Any of these work for you? You could use Mae again. I know sisters who share a middle name.

I was going to say Ariana Rose :)

Similar to my full first name.

LondonNinja · 12/11/2013 19:53

Jane
Rose
Beth

BoohPear · 12/11/2013 20:02

I thought of Ariana Marie when I saw the name.

My friend has a daughter with a similar name and her middle name is Blue

Kind of depends on your surname as well
