Middle Name For Harlow

[Rachelhaydenberk1]

Please help me decide!!

Harlow Olivia
Harlow Livea
Harlow Livienne
Harlow Ameline
Harlow Amelie
Harlow Amelia
Harlow Avianna

I love Olivia with Harlow but it's so popular and trendy that I'm kinda like blah on it.

Livea is a legit name that has been around even before Olivia. I like this spelling because Livia looks like you're butchering Olivia but Livea kind of looks unique.

I love Livienne but some people say it looks made up. I dont know the history. I just heard it and liked it. But I worry it's too rhymey with other middle names I may want to use for future children. Is that crazy? Does it matter if middle names rhyme or sound similar?

Other considerations are honor names like Ameline. I dont like Amelia as a first name but as a middle name with Harlow it sounds kinda good. So does Amelie.

I love Avianna but does it sound good in the middle spot?

I clearly need help deciding!! Thank you for the help!

I think Harlow Amelia. A syllable on from Amelie and it goes up more at the end. Sounds more cheerful.

Don't be daft @azulmariposa

What about Harlow Barlow, for Jean Harlow and Gary Barlow?

I'm teasing, I actually like the name Harlow!

@EstrellaDamn I'm not daft. I wouldn't give a child a silly name, surnames as first names are stupid.

Give her a definitively female middle name. Then everyone won't make the usual assumption of "surname used as a first name means a boy."

@azulmariposa that is your opinion entirely, but it makes you come across as a judgemental dickhead.

My friend (UK not USA) has a daughter called Harlow. It's been fine at school, no comments about her name and suits her perfectly.
I love it.

I like Harlow Olivia too.

I live near Glasgow so the reference to the town isn't something that is known about here.
I know a Harlow, she's 3 and one of the loveliest children I've met.

Again, I have no clue what you're talking about when you list towns out!!

I usually dont like surnames as first names either. TBH though I've only ever heard Harlow as a first name with exception to Jean Harlow (pretty sure that isn't even her real name anyhow). I find it very feminine. You wouldn't name a boy that here.

Ok I really need middle name help. I might just cave and do Olivia. One less name to argue about!!

I am interested in L name suggestions though. Or names with Ls or Os.

Another option I liked was Harlow Violetta.

The first thing that sprung to mind was America so if you’re in the US then sure

What about Lydia

I dont hate Lydia. It's okay. It doesnt pop out as a name I totally love but it's not bad - thank you!

Yes I understand the town thing. Let's move past if at all possible Haha. I'm American!!

Come on OP, even in the US ‘the T is silent as in Harlow’.

It’s awful.

They're very very common in Scotland @azulmariposa so I guess it's just that you're quite ignorant, really.

There is criticism here in the US too. It's not universally liked - I get it. This town critique is new but it's better than the harlot debate. That word doesnt bother me though. I've never heard it used. Nobody walks around saying "that girl stole my man. What a harlot!" I just dont think it comes up!!

Is your surname haydenberk? Because Harlow Haydenberk is just cruel.

I wouldn’t name a kid after someone who died in their mid 20s even if I liked the name.

Harlow Harper
Harlow Rose

From your list I dislike Harlow Amelia the least (that was on the list wasn't it?)

Ha! To whoever said Culbokie. Jemimaville?

I also thought Barlow. And Carr. And harlot.

More seriously, Lydia is a good suggestion.

I love the name Harlow! 😍 Legit one of my baby names that I'm thinking of I've thought of it for so many years!

Harlow Olivia sounds great!

@Summerhouse that’s not how you pronounce Myfannwy.
It’s muh-VAN-oi.

OP, fair play to you. You have the patience of a saint.

For what it's worth, I like Harlow. Who cares if it is also a place name. It's been used enough times that I am 100 percent sure she isn't going to hear "You mean like the town in Essex?" every time she introduces herself.

This place sometimes!!

To answer your original question, I like Livia. I don't think it matters it looks like Olivia with the O chopped off, although I would understand that concern as a first name. I think as a middle name that doesn't matter.

Thank you to those who like Harlow and are helping me. Or even if you dont if you'll look past your own taste!! Again, American and no one would associate with any town!!

I am liking Harlow Livia. What about Harlow Violetta?
