Middle name for Olivia?

Just had baby girl after 3 boys, and it took us a week to come up with Olivia (even though it is top of the top 100 list!), but we are struggling for middle names. Last name one syllable, beginning with 'S'.

Please let me have your ideas! Thank you!

Olivia Christine

This was the name of my first, most beloved, Cabbage Patch Kid, sadly lost by my sister 23 years ago and yes, I still hold it against her...

Not Rose, May/Mae or Grace.... this is what virtually everybody is called!!

I second twosofar. I know that the MWs give out those names as compulsory mns these days, but you can buck the trend, honest. If you want one syllable how about Clare, Kate, Pearl, Anne, Jane, Merle, Joy (although that last one getting a bit too popular).

If you love Matilda you should go for it, I personally prefer it.

With Olivia I would go for a more unusual middle name.

Genevieve
Ottilie
Pearl

mine has a long name starting with A 5 syllables, not mentioned here
last name also one syllable starting with L
I like the way it sounds

I was born Olivia with a single syllable S surname! My middle name is Caroline if that helps.
