in Baby Names

Hello,

Trying to get our girl list narrowed down to 3 or 4 name combinations. Brother’s name is William and our last name is longish (3 syllables) and starts with an A.

First name options: Greta, Penelope, Charlotte, Daphne, Adeline  

Middle name options: Katherine, Rae, Anne, Mary (all family names). Also like Grace, Jane, Lauren, Lane, Brooke, and Leigh.

We definitely like Greta Lauren, Penelope Anne/Jane/Katherine, Charlotte Rae, Daphne Grace, and Adeline Mary/Grace.

What else would work well?  What are your favorite combinations?    

Many thanks!

    I have a Charlotte Ann, so I am partial to that.

    My favourites from your list are Charlotte, Greta, and Daphne. I feel like any of the one syllable middle names options would work well with those three names.

    Charlotte born at 28w3d due to severe IUGR on 12.24.2012 Merry Christmas!

    Does the last name of Anderson rule out Anne as a middle name? Love Anne as a middle name, but what about the 2 together? No way or no biggie?

    In this case I would drop the middle name Anne.

    I love Greta! It was a top contender for DD.

    Love Greta Lauren, or Greta Jane.

    My DDs name is Daphne and I still am totally in love w the name. We get compliments all the time because its so unique, yet everyone knows the name. Everyone always remembers her because of her name. I almost hate sharing this because I want her name to remain so uncommon, but it's a great game. IMO :) GL

    I like katherine as a middle.
