I like jasper and Jacoby for a boy or lily (best), all of the girls are good except not keen on Jupiter, meadow and rayne

I think Svetlana Juniper or Svetlana Violet is too much of a mouthful. A one- or two-syllable middle name would work better.

Multiple DS has one of those middle names (can you guess which?) - it came into my head the night he was born and I couldn't shake it off!

Jasper for the boy, Sky for the girl. Svetlana meaning star, you have to have your little star in the sky, haven't you?

NOT Mae. It's the current go-to middle name as far as I can work out.

I think it's nice to honour or remember someone with the second name, but of your names:

Jupiter - excellent for a middle name

Faye
Meadow

or can I suggest Joy?

Aberdeen - We'd like a one syllable middle name for Svetlana but there doesn't seem to be much choice - ones we like anyway.

MsJupiter - I think I can guess Wink

Guggle - I do like Sky and DH loves Jasper.

Newt - I'm not keen on Mae but DH likes it.

We've honored too many people with our DC names. ds2 has DH's full name, ds3's middle name is after DH's Grandfather's name, dd1 is named after my mum's middle name, and ds4's middle name is after my Grandfather.

We'd like something different. For the boy at least. The family girl names we have (which have sentimental meanings) are:
Jessica - My mum's name.
Elizabeth - My Grandmother's.
Eleanor - My stillborn sister.
