Middle name for Alice

We recently found out we are having a girl after five boys! The name we've had chosen for years has been Alice Catherine. Recently dh's oldest sister jokingly suggested that we name the baby after her and I'm completely happy to honor her in some way. Her name is Julia but has mostly gone by Julie. I'm not sure I like the flow of Alice Catherine Julia, but I do like Alice Catherine Juliet. So skip the idea all together or add on Julia or Juliet. Thanks.

    I think there names is too much. Are you really set on Catherine? Just seems outdated to me- Alice Juliet or Alice Julia are nice. 
  • I agree with @lissvarna. Two middle names is a bit much and makes filling out official documents later in life quite complicated. I like Alice Juliet.

  • Wow, I'm surprised by the poll results! Two middle names is perfectly fine, but I do also think Alice Julia is pretty if you want to stick to one!

     Thanks! We are set on Catherine as it's a family name with a lot of significance to me. My second son has two middles names so I'm not worried about that. We do just use the first name initial to fill out documents if needed. I guess I was just wondering if it sounded alright and if Juliet which I prefer over Julia in sound was still a way of honoring her. We have time to decide I suppose though!

    ETA- We have a one syllable last name if that makes a difference.
