Middle name for Freya, and which spelling

Hi, I am looking for any suggestions for middle names for a little one called Freya. I would also love to know what spelling people prefer of the first name, do you prefer Freja or Freya?
All thoughts welcome :)

Freya if you don't live in a Scandinavian country.

My DH is Norwegian and we considered Freya, but even we would've spelt it Freya because we don't live in Scandinavia and no one here would've spelt or pronounced Freja/Freyja correctly.

O think in the UK Freya is better as there won't be so many questions on pronunciation.

Freya Marie?
DH suggested Freya Bruinhilda (he weird)
Freya Louise?
Freya May?

Freya Hope (mine is nearly 17 😀)

That's interesting to here, I live in Scotland and although the y spelling is more common both are recognised and pronounceable

I like the spelling Freja or Freyja - don't think anyone would mispronounce it freyJa to be honest

Ohyesiam · 05/06/2017 22:35

We went for Freyja

HollyJollyDillydolly · 05/06/2017 22:38

I have a Freya, Her middle name has already been mentioned but it was very nearly Rose. We went for the W nature name instead.

Freya Marie comes to mind first of all. Although if you aren't using a middle name to honour a relative or something with meaning I don't think it's necessary to have a middle one! x

Louise has a nice ring to it.

I really love the Freyja spelling and think it opens up the possibility of more Nordic middle names, e.g.

Freyja Sofia
Freyja Kaisla
Freyja Aili
Freyja Tuuli
Freyja Minna
Freyja Nora
Freyja Tove
Freyja Elisabeth
Freyja Hilde
Freyja Elke

If I'd had a girl she would have been Freya Rhiannon.
