Good first name for middle name Ellen

syoungs

We want to name the baby after my husband's grandmother, her name is Mary Ellen, but don't want the first name to be Mary.  Any suggestions of something that flows nicely?  thanks!

I think a one- or three-syllable name would be best, so most of these are.

I honestly can't think of anything right now! But I love Ellen as a first name, is there a reason you aren't doing that?

thank you for all the suggestions...there are some really good ones!  The reason we aren't using Ellen as a first name is because our daughter now is named Lily and we figured we would call an Ellen, Ellie and that's just too confusing and tongue twisting!
