Thoughts on a middle name

To go with Finola? Doesn’t have to have Irish links. Surname three syllables starting with S.

Finola Wren

Thank you; I wouldn’t choose a middle name beginning with A as they would run together: Finoleranne
Grace is nice
I don’t understand the popularity of Wren!

You don't have any family names you like?

Thinking about initials, you might want to avoid one beginning with F.

Finola Charis
Finola Jocelyn
Finola Eve or Evelyn

Finola Aisling/Saoirse/Beth/Zoe/Kate

Knitterbabe · 15/03/2021 14:26

I love Aisling, but it would be a mouthful with the surname.
Maeve would work.
Thank you.

Lovely name. Maybe something international-ish for variety ?

Finola Pearl
Finola Marianne
Finola Cecily
Or any of the classics - Margaret, Elizabeth, Katharine

I don’t get Wren either - sounds like Ren - random.

Although Robin is nice - Finola Robin?

Since both the first name and surname have 3 syllables, I'd be tempted to go for only 1 or 2 for the middle for flow (and not ending in A or starting with F or S). Maeve (or Meabh) would be lovely, or:

Neve (or Niamh)

Tess
Esme
Caitlin
Eve (or Aoibh)
Jane
Roisin
Mairead

I think a one syllable middle name that doesn't start with a vowel would work best.
