Middle names for Amelia?

Hi,

We've settled on Amelia as a first name. I know it's popular which might put a lot of people off, but we haven't found anything else that we prefer.

We're stuck on a middle name, with little one due in 3 weeks. Current options are:

Amelia Rose
Amelia Alice

We have quite a long surname (9 letters) which is nature sounding, and like pretty feminine names.

Which middle name do people prefer, or does anyone have any other suggestions?

I’m born in the early 90s and Louise and Ann seemed to be the only middles names anybody had (me included)

I know countless Sophie Louise, Rebecca Anne, Chloe Louise, Amy Louise, Jessica Louise and so on. I think this new generations equivalent is definitely Isla/Amelia Rose, Ava/Isabella Mae type names. Felt new and fresh initially but now bland and dull and everywhere.

I definitely prefer Alice as the middle name or maybe as others have suggested a different flower one.

I prefer Amelia Elizabeth from your update much more than either of the two in your OP.

rose is one of the most popular middle names of the last decade and I think Alice is just too many As with Amelia
