I’m currently in hospital with my third pregnancy as it looks like my baby girl could be born very early. We have chosen a first name and had been planning to use a family name as a middle name but now I’d like something a bit more meaningful/auspicious for her middle name... I’m thinking maybe Hope or Grace or something that means ‘brave/healthy’. Any ideas...?

Helpful comments only please... this is a difficult time and I’m just looking for some inspiration, not judgement! I won’t share the first name as I don’t want views to taint it and meaning is more important than ‘flow’...

Thanks in advance for your help

Hope is lovely
I knew a lovely young woman called Mercy.
Helen means Light
Faith
I hope all goes well for you and your wee one. I’ve experienced similar and it is agonising wanting the time to pass yet being afraid of what the future may bring. Little girls are generally stronger than boys so she has her gender in her favour. Xx
