15 day old Phoebe without a middle name

[justhayley]

Hiya,
My baby girl is now 15 days old and we've named her Phoebe. However we can not get a middle name that both of us love.

DP wanted Emilia which I originally agreed to then woke up the following day all hormonal and In tears about it. It's a lovely name but for some reason just doesn't seem to be my phoebes name.

I quite like Isabella but am not 100% if it's the very best out there?

I like really girly flower vintage and sometimes granny names. I love things like Daisy and Betty but they don't really work with Phoebe, and DP has vetoed both

Apart from Emilia he likes Megan and that's all- Megan is def not an option although again I think it's a lovely name.

My brains not working right now so I'm leaving it up to you ladies.

Please name my baby

Phoebe Doris
Phoebe Willow
Phoebe Blossom
Phoebe Camille
Phoebe Veronica
Phoebe Iris

I think one syllable, starting with a consonant, works well eg

Dawn
May
Maeve
Maud
Grace
Rose

But then also Violet for some reason!

Does she need a middle name? Why?

Phoebe Marie is pretty, depends on your surname though

What's your last name?

Phoebe Beaux
Phoebe Rose
Phoebe Belle
Phoebe Mae
Phoebe Rae
Phoebe Esme/Esmae
Phoebe Isla
Phoebe Cara
Phoebe Cora

Love Phoebe by the way, feel like it need to be something short so it rolls off the tounge?

Louise
Rose
Rae

Congratulations on your DD

I've a Phoebe Nicola. Very personal reasons but they sound good together I think.

Congrats and on choosing an awesome name.

My Phoebe is Phoebe Lorna

Phoebe Jane

Congrats and lovely name

Congratulations! And don't stress about the middle name. They are hardly ever used in day to day life. Most people don't know about them/forget them. Can you find something with a personal meaning, either to you and your DP, or to your wider families? Or something that gives - as it were - an admirable quality to your newborn? Something like Hope or Joy, for example? Or something to express your feelings, such as Miranda, which means 'to be marvelled at'?

Phoebe violet, but it's not a necessity is it??

Phoebe Summer?
Phoebe Jean?
Phoebe Isabella is beautiful by the way. I'd go with that.

Congratulations, some great suggestions here but I agree don't stress too much about middle names. None of my 3 have a middle name, took us enough time to pick their first names

What are your names and mothers'/ grandmothers' names?
I think a single syllable name works best.

Jane
Elizabeth
Alexandra

Phoebe Violet
Phoebe Delphine
Phoebe Ruth
Phoebe Eloise

Phoebe Isabella sounds lovely
Phoebe Rose
Phoebe Elizabeth
Phoebe Eloise
Phoebe Anna
Phoebe Margaret / Margot

Phoebe Anne (means Grace)
Phoebe Elizabeth
Phoebe Jean

Elizabeth

Mine is Phoebe Elisabeth Joan

Phoebe Beatrice
Phoebe Ruth
Phoebe Lila
Phoebe Elizabeth

Eleanore

I would pick a family name. Granmothers, Great Grandmothers?

Failing that, something personal - Summer? A flower that was in bloom when she was born?

I think of first names as their own name, and middle names as a way of providing a background or root.

Phoebe Alice?

I know a phoebe Elise. But people sometimes misread it as Elsie -which doesn't "flow" as well.
