Middle name for Fallon?

Just brainstorming a load of name. Fallon is on the list if we have a girl but struggling to think of a middle name that flows with it 🤔

Any suggestions?

Fallon Marie sprang to mind!

All the fall-on jokes don’t really work, it’s rhymes with gallon doesn’t it??

Yes, Fallon rhyming with Gallon!

I get the joke comments if you're reading it as Fall on (two separate words), but they don't work with the way the name is pronounced lol

Please reconsider your choice of name. Think of your child.

Is it from the Nora roberts series?

Maybe!

We don't know it from anywhere, we just like the name!

I'm old enough to remember Dynasty and always thought Fallon was a lovely name. I would pick something classic and pretty - Rose, Elizabeth, Victoria? Is there a family name you could use?

Thankyou, I have never seen it!

OP- you assume that people and other children meeting your child will know how to pronounce it though! That is a BIG assumption! There WILL be people pronounce it 'fallen' or 'fall-on' and have to be corrected. I say this as someone with a 4 letter name, not that uncommon, who has had to spell it out and correct people my whole life!

Any family names you could use? If I'm correct, Fallon is only 2 syllables, so you could have a 3 syllable middle name which might flow, whereas a single syllable like Ann, Rose etc sounds too short.

It was actually spelled KRYSTLE.
Which makes it a hundred times worse.

Fallon for a girl? Sorry but that just sounds odd. Awful name anyway. But you could just about get away with it for a boy.

It’s certainly very 80s Dynasty/Dallas perms, lip gloss and shoulder pads - but maybe it’s one of those American names like Tiffany and Amber that’s due a revival.

Surprised nobody has suggested a female play on jimmy…
Ive not heard it as a first name before, but when I did I assumed it was male.

Not a fan.
What about Fennel, or Mirren

Might be a name to avoid if your surname is something like Mycock

It's a surname

Really struggling to tell which of these name suggestions and jokes and which are serious 😅 almost gave a serious reply to ‘Fallon Alan’ before realising it could be a joke.

Didn't Fallon get abducted by aliens at one point? Or did I dream that....

Seriously, it's not really my taste, but if it's a definite choice, I'd pair it with a longer middle name.

Fallon Elizabeth
Fallon Amelia
Fallon Louisa
Fallon Victoria
Etc

It’s a lovely name, I’m in my 50s and remember Dynasty well but no one will think of that OP. And I’ve no idea why so many posters are pretending they don’t know how to pronounce it?🤷‍♀️ it’s not that uncommon!
Go for it OP!

I'm perplexed that some people may struggle to pronounce it?
It's not that unusual, surely!?

@trieditbuyedit , Michael Fallon was Secretary of State for Defence about 8 yrs ago. Other than that, I can only think of Fallon in Dynasty and Fallon in a radio soap. The Fall part looks like it might rhyme with Ball, but it sounds like Fal.
