Final pairing for Isla

holocene

After months of discussing, we've finally arrived at Isla.

Which middle name do you think fits best?

Factors to consider that may sway your decision...
1 syllable last name (Irish).
Siblings are Samu.el Grey & Ari Ja.mes.

I like Josephine in the middle with the shorter first and last name. Both are excellent options though!

I think both are cute! I voted Maeve because I like the way three shorter names look instead of a longer middle name "Josephine" I also like that your boys have shorter middle names so it kinda matches a little.

Haha @bbiutmcph - I just realized we like the exact opposite for short and long names!

I feel like the longer Josephine works better with short first and last names, but I really like Isla Maeve together as a name, so I would probably lean that way. I can't vote, I'm really torn.

I love Isla Maeve

Isla Maeve sounds better to me, and pairs nicely with your boys' short names.

I like both!  How many syllables in your last name?  If it's one syllable then I would probably go with Josephine, if it's longer than either works.

Thanks, everyone. I appreciate the feedback.

I'm in agreement that Isla Maeve sounds most similar and best with my son's names, but that Isla Josephine sounds better with our one syllable last name.
