Dh and I like both as first names but can't decide on middle names to go with them! Inspiration needed.

I agree with the person who suggested Louise and Marie. I think these go really well with both Emma and Claire

Do you not want two names with the same number of syllables though? Emma and Clara for example?

My name is Claire and I have a 3 syllable middle name, it flows well, especially when mum is cross with me Grin

Claire Elizabeth

Emma and Claire are both quite simple, no-frills names, so I would go for something more - what shall I say - as middle names. Adventurous? Glamorous? Unusual? Daring? Grin None of which mean any disrespect to two lovely names! It would be a shame to fall back on the usual suspects.

Lots of good suggestions here. I might be tempted to look to the heavens as they are Gemini Grin and choose star or constellation names.

I'm an Emma. It was very popular whilst I was at school- what was good though is that the other Emma's were always Emma Louise! I'm an Emma Grace Elizabeth and I love it! Grin
