Middle Name Poll: Isela or Katherine

ZPinUpDoll

Hi ladies! Hope everyone is doing well! Anywhoo, I would like to kno which middle name (in your opinion) would go with Emma. I honestly love Emma Isela but because my husband can't pronounce it he doesn't think it sounds good so Katherine is his one and Only suggestion. I am Mexican. He is white/Caucasian whatever you wanna call it. But if anyone of you have another suggestion on a middle name feel free!! Oh and our last name is Shaw thanks everyone!

I should add that Isela is my mothers middle name. She means the world to me. We are very close.

I had to look up Isela to see if it was a legit name (a Mexican Actress - Isela Vega - popped up on a google search).  I thought you had misspelled Isla. What about Catalina? I think that's the Spanish form of Katherine.

I picked Emma Isela because I think Isela gives Emma a bit of flavour. I also like that it would incorporate your heritage, which I think is important since she would have your husband's last name. Since it's the middle name, I don't think spelling and pronunciation is a big deal. So unless Katherine holds a great deal of meaning to you guys, I'd go with Isela or another name from your background.
