Middle name for Hero

[BoldandBright]

Expecting a baby girl and we’ve decided on first name Hero. Our other children have unusual but not unheard of names with more traditional middle names but struggling to find a name that flows nicely with Hero. Our first mn pick was Emilia but gone off it a little now, any suggestions?
Our last name is rare but not ‘weird’ or able to be turned into a joke, and begins with an S.
thanks 😊

I'm surprised at the Hero hate when unusual names usually get the thumbs up on here.

Just had a Google and Myleene Klass' dd is Hero Harper.

I think that a name with more than 2 syllables sounds best eg Madeline, Saskia

Ine

I like Hero Helena with the emphasis on the second syllable of Helena (hel AYE na). Or Hero Theresa. That's nice too and no-ones called Theresa any more.

Hero Tabitha
Hero Adeline
Hero Evette
Hero Vivienne
Hero Penelope

At least she’ll have her own emoji!

Hero Veronica?

I think it sounds better with something longer with a few consonants.

[Prettypaisleyslippers]

Cadbury’s?

sorry to joke but your child is going to have a lifetime of this unless she has a decent back story. Is a she a hero? Is there a back story? If not then save her from this now, call her Grace

[Galadriel90]

I love it. I love the play Much Ado about Nothing though!

What about Amelia for a middle name?

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Hero Beatrice actually sounds quite nice, but I don't think you could get away with that!

[TeenDivided]

Hero is one of the main females in Much Ado About Nothing (not the Emma Thompson character, the other one, quiet and unassuming, pretends to be dead).

Before l read the full post, l thought it was a boy's name... and a pretentious one.

Or you just don't know any Shakespeare.

Why are dome people on mumsnet so judgemental?

[countrypunk]

People coming on here to call the name Hero vile/disgusting when the OP has asked an entirely separate question: you're dicks.

[Iwanderedlonelyasagoat]

No middle name suggestions but also just to say that I love it, and it just makes think Shakespeare. Also love Viola, Portia, Hermia. It's definitely a girl's name! Round where I live noone would bat an eyelid, and a lot of people would get the reference.

[Velvetbee]

Love it, really beautiful.
Longer middle names seem best,
Claudia, Vivienne, Cecily, Violette..

Worship?

Thank you for some of the lovely comments and suggestions ❤️ Definitely got a few to consider & and those of you that think you are amateur commediennes please don’t give up your day job! I’m aware it’s a divisive name but I didn’t ask for any input beyond a mn pairing for it.

[Talapia]

Hero Victoria
Hero Rosalie
Hero Rosalind
Hero Rosina
Hero Hermia
Hero Helena (again prefer Hel ay na ).
Hero Adriana

She will look like her name. All kids do. It's not like your calling her Scrottette or anything made up.

[countrypunk]

Hero Rosalind is lovely.

Some more ideas:

Hero Beatrice (think a PP suggested this one too, I love it)
Hero Charlotte
Hero Evelyn
Hero Ayla
Hero Eleanor
Hero Emily
Hero Hazel
Hero Aurora
Hero Lillian
Hero Delilah
Hero Adeline

[halfsiesonapotnoodle]

Tamsin, Emerald, Louisa, Zoe, Saffron? Really dislike Emilia with its ugly 'mealy' sound in the middle.

[BentleyRhythmAce]

Hero Matilda sounds quite cool.

[toomuchlaundry]

Would you like to be called Hero?

[YukoandHiro]

Hero IS a girl's name, it's shakesperean.

Some of you really didn't need to comment here.

How about Eliza or Beatrice?

[paradyning]

Hero Beatrice - to keep the Much ado theme

Emilia is lovely

Hero is horrendous
