Middle name - Juliet/Jules?

[YellowGoldie]

We are due baby number two in a couple months. We don’t know what we’re having but boys name is secured, and a few options for girls first names - Harriet or Alice looking likely. We would like to choose a middle name that honors grandma -(Julie) but not a fan of Julie/Julia. I like Juliet but is it a bit much with Harriet? Would Jules work better? Or does anyone have any other Julie-based middle name options? Thanks!!

Julianne, perhaps?

It's a middle name. It will rarely or almost never be used. If you want to honour the name of grandma then use Julie or Julia. Both lovely names imo.

@SkaneTos I'm not so sure on Julianne. I like Juliana though, do you think that could work?
@SparkyBlue I understand that it’s a middle name. I frequently say my son’s middle name which I love so I want to make sure I feel the same way about this one. Plus, we have one grandma Julie and one Julia so would rather pick a different name that nods to both.

Harriet Julia or Alice Juliet.

Not Jules, it is either a nickname or a French boy's name.

Yes, Juliana would be nice.

Harriet Juliana is lovely!

Harriet Juliana is really nice. If you decide to use Harriet, Juliana is the middle name to choose, imo.

I love Alice Juliet.

Giulietta?

Not Julianne please. All the Julies I know apart from 1 are Julie Anne.

Juliana is too long and ugly.

Juliana is lovely. Or Julianna.

I think Juliet is lovely, however if it’s a middle name and you’re set on honouring your relative I’d just go with Julie, even if you’re not keen. You’ll rarely use it and the older Julie will be delighted. I don’t think using Juliet/julianna/julienne or anything other than her actual name is ‘honouring’ her to be honest; her name is Julie, the other names are not that. You may as well use any old name as use those.

Juliana is a lovely name!
