My husband and I are having are at a standstill over middle names for our baby girl. We both love the first name Ella, but her middle name has been much harder to agree on. Our last name begins with J and has syllables. Thanks in advance!
Anything is better than Ella Grace. It is SUCH a popular combination and before opening this post I had a feeling it'd be on there. I know a few Ella Graces.
I feel like the combo Ella Kate is very popular. I know at least 5 kids with this exact name. I chose Ella Brooke (FWIW, I really like Ella, but it's bad with my last name!)
Ella Kate sounds a lot like "allocate" to me. Maybe it's because I used it a million times a day when I worked, so not everyone would have that pop into their heads.
just realized that I said our last name has "syllables". of course it does! it has two syllables ; ) thanks for the feedback. I agree with Ella Grace being way to popular!
Re: middle name for Ella (clicky poll)
Ella Kate sounds less trendy/filler mn than the others.
I also really like Ella Katherine.
