Finally settled on the name Ella , I appreciate it’s popular along with all the other E names at the moment but it is literally the only name my husband and I can agree we both like.

Our first child has a middle name so we’d like to give new baby one too however we have no family names or anything that stands out. Not sure I’m loving any of the below combinations would like opinions?

So far we’ve come up with -
Ella Madeliene
Ella Sophia
Ella Grace (probably too popular?)

Also a bit out there -
Ella Sloane
Ella James

Anything but Rose/May/Grace. Done to death.

Very difficult to comment productively without the surname

otherwise it’s just Ella vamess 🥴

I love Ella Penelope, though do you have a parent/grandparent name or variation that might fit the bill?

I think Ella goes well with the middle names ending in A.

I really don’t like the name Sophia but Ella Sophia goes best out of your suggestions, maybe a different name ending in A.

Ella Rae
Ella Dawn
Ella Kate
Ella Beth

If you haven’t double barrelled your kids surname then maybe use which ever of your surnames isn’t the surname as the middle name.
Or perhaps a mothers maiden name if you’d like them to remember some family history in the future.

We recently lost our beautiful Ella. She was 21 and loved her name!

She was Ella Charlotte.

I probably would’ve had Ella Grace but our surname is too similar to Grace.

Sorry for your loss.
