My DH and I are settled on the first name for our baby girl - Rose, but we are unsure about the middle one.
Which one do you like more?

Rose Amelia Hartley
Rose Mirabel Hartley

Suggestions are welcome, thank you in advanceSmile

Mirabel.

Love the name Rose

I personally wouldn't worry at all about how the full name "flows" as middle names are so rarely used. I'd pick a name you like just incase she decides to use it as her main name, 2 members of my family "go" by their middle name not their first name

Rose Martha
Rose Margot
Rose Jemima
Rose Mabel
Rose Edith
Rose Margaret
Rose Delilah

Amelia flows better

I love Mirabel with Rose. Amelia isn't my style to begin with, but I also find that Rose sort of blends into it somehow; it's overall too soft and vowel-y. Mirabel offers a bit of contrast, and the repeated "r" sound is pleasant to my ears.

Mirabel

DramaAlpaca · 12/05/2020 12:31

Mirabel

@Grace771 I prefer Mirabel but think Amelia flows better, but as other people have said as a middle name that doesn’t really matter. My autocorrect just changed Mirabel to Mirabeau as I was typing, another possibility? Also Clarabel, Mariette, Ophelia as one that sounds close to Amelia but is a little more unusual.

Tillygetsit · 12/05/2020 23:21

Mirabel is more unexpected. I like it.

NoSauce · 12/05/2020 23:58

Not Amelia, I don’t like the mealy sound. Mirabel is nice.
