need help with middle names please.. being very difficult this time round normally very easy but oh well, appreciate any ideas 😍
already have a DS -> Rian Sean and a DD -> Mia Skye
for DC#3 have thought of Emma Layke or Amy Layke for a girl and for boy we love the first name Jace but can't decide on a middle name I like the name Liam but kind of think it doesn't flow properly can't explain...any ideas would be welcome 😊

Jace is awful. Why not Jason, shortened to Jace? At least that is a real name.

Ec2808 · 02/10/2025 14:40

@LooseCanyon because I prefer Jace and yes it is a real name 😉

I like Mia and Amy but I would spell the middle as Lake instead of Layke unless Layke is a family name or has other special significance to you. If you mean to echo the y in Skye with another one syllable middle name, Layke doesn't work but some that might are Bay, Blythe, Bryn/Brynn/Brynne, Fay/Faye, Joy, Joyce, Kay/Kaye, Lys, May, or Nyx.

Oh my god you should use the name Rumi if it's a girl! I really hope you've seen the film or this will be lost on you 🤣

Rian is Ree-an.

I agree that both Emma and Amy are too close to Mia (Amy is basically Mia backwards). Zoe as previously suggested would be lovely, or how Lara?

Have you thought about Jax for a boy?

Mia Skye, Rian Sean and ..

Emma Layne
Emma Lake
Amy Lois
Zoe Kate

I feel like both Emma and Amy are too samey with Mia

If it’s one of those though then I would say Emma!

You might like:

If you really like Jace for a boy what about:

Jace Blair
Jace Axel
Jace Ryder
Jace Dean
Jace Finley

also PP suggestion of Jax is a good one with your current DC names!
