Etta- middle name needed

Sooo I love the name Etta and really really love Rose for a middle name or pearl... but recently realised that it sounds like Ate a Rose or Ate a pearl 😂😂😂 which is not ideal. Any suggestions lovely people? Xx

I love the Etta Rosanna suggestion.

Or Etta Greta for fun. ;-)

How about Henrietta, nn Etta? So that when she's saying the full name it's Henrietta Rose (surname) rather than Etta Rose (surname)?

Etta Leigh
Etta Hope
Etta Claire
Etta Ruth
Etta June
Etta Paige (does this sound like 'ate a page?' )
Etta Faith

I do like Etta Rose and Etta Grace, though. I know they are normally seen as' filler' middle names, but they work so well with Etta!

Etta Jane is too close to Etta James (which is probably why it’s springing to mind so readily)
Etta Rose is lovely. I don’t think people will jump to Ate A Rose. I have an Etta Lily and have never had that issue.

Etta Rae?

If you are a Jilly Cooper fan then Etta Valentine would be good!!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 07/01/2021 20:27

@Polkadot123 we were going to go Etta May if we have A girl, I love the name so much, but have decided it will now be middle name if this little one is a girl! Absolutely love it x

@Crikeyblimey

My great aunt was Etta. Love the name. Her sister was Kitty 💕. Both born early 1900’s.

My first thought was Etta Jane but maybe Jane isn’t quite right (yet).

I like Etta Jane

But TBH I think of Etta as a nn for Elizabeth (Or Henrietta), and would give her a full name on the birth certificate

Edenember · 08/01/2021 02:00

I second Mae and Jeane and add Lou.

scrivette · 08/01/2021 02:14

Joy was the first name that came to mind when I saw Etta.

I really like Henrietta Rose.
