Middle name ideas

Hi all! We have decided upon the name Alexandra for our DC1 but are really struggling to think of a good middle name for it that we both like and sounds good. We are aware that middle names aren’t essential to get perfect but that still doesn’t help us!

Some ideas we have:
Alexandra Elise (how would you pronounce?)
Alexandra Edie
Alexandra Grace
Alexandra Vivienne
Alexandra Genevieve

Our surname is two syllables starting with a B.

Any thoughts much appreciated on either our names or any you have to offer!

GrinGrinGrin thank you everyone for all your ideas, including lyn for ensuring I don’t forget that ambivalence exists! We’re gonna make a list of our favourites and compare to see what the shortlist will be!! Definitely some names we hadn’t come up with, so it’s good to get out of our headspace Smile

I don't suppose in the cold light of day that anyone particularly cares if we all had to swear on oath, Lyn but Why did you open the thread just to tell her you're not contributing. You do know posting isn't compulsory, right.

Vivienne and Genevieve are too long with Alexandra. Grace goes nicely

Maude.

Grace is the obvious one one your list. The others seem clumsy in comparison.

Alexandra Joy is nice.

Alexandra Joy sounds like a sex toy.
