Middle name for Camilla?

Don't know if baby due in 8 weeks is boy or girl. Think we are set on Frederick for a boy and Camilla for a girl. Would Camilla Catherine work? This would be using Catherine after a family member. Not sure if this works so we are open to prettier middle name suggestions. Thanks

Camilla Kate?

Rose?

ps2304 · 10/01/2017 16:13

Rose is one of my favourites but EVERYONE I know who has had a girl has used it as a middle name!

I think it works perfectly fine! Both pretty names.
You don't often use the first and middle names together anyway.

I think Camilla Catherine Rose would work well.

Thank you everyone, I will read all suggestions to my husband tonight!

Personally I quite like a soft start to the name after Camilla and nothing that ends in an "a" or a "y" or "ie" sound, such as
Camilla Estelle,
Camilla Grace,
Camilla Fleur,
Camilla Skye.
I quite like Camilla Catherine too, especially if she would be Milly as a nn - whatever you and your husband like!

Actually not Camilla Skye as sounds like vanilla sky! Blush sorry.

Roseann, Grace, Elizabeth. Alice, Kate, Louise, Sophie

I think it's pretty, but the fact they are two royal names did jump out at me immediately. Camilla is lovely and underused, don't go soft at the middle name and use the standard Rose/Grace!!

Jane ? Alice?

I was also going to suggest Catherine and Rose! But like you I'm not entirely sure Catherine works and Rose is very popular.

I actually quite like:

Camilla Jane
Camilla Elizabeth

Camilla Iris Catherine.

Camilla is such a great name!

I vote for Camilla Vivienne

Having said that, I tend to think a middle name should be either connected to your family or have a meaning that's special to you rather than just sound good. For that reason I think Catherine is a lovely choice. That is just my personal preference.
