Baby Names

middle name for Hope

My husband and I love the name Hope for a girl, since we met at a church that had Hope in the name. The problem is all of the middle names for Hope seem backwards...We really like Hope Gabrielle and Hope Emeryson. This a name for a second child Emmary Kate being the first. Suggestions please?? we dont like names that are too weird or old fashioned like Angeline

Re: middle name for Hope

  • I'd go with Hope Gabrielle only because the other MN sounds too close to your other daughter's FN.
  • I do really like

    Hope Madeline

    Hope Caroline

    Hope Gabriella

    Hope Katherine

    Hope Annabelle seems to come up a lot, but I'm from Arkansas and dont want to look to Redneck. Southern is ok, Redneck is not ok!

  • Funny that you say you don't like names like Angeline, because Hope Evangeline is on our long list and that's what I would have suggested.

    Did you mean to type Emerson, or would you really name her Hope Emeryson?  I'd definitely go with Hope Gabrielle either way.  Like PP mentioned, Emerson/Emeryson is way too close to Emmary.

  • Hope Gabrielle. Your other name sounds too much like your first daughters name.

    Hope Gabrielle is a gorgeous name. I also really like Hope Madeline.

    It's odd to me that you would equate Annabelle with redneck rather than "Southern." I lived in Arkansas for almost two years, and worked at a hospital that attracted a lot of...well, "redneck" Medicaid patients. To me, "redneck" is more along the lines of Braelyn, Brynlee, and other made up or misspelled names. Not something classic and antebellum like Annabelle.

  • Hope Gabrielle is really pretty.

    I also have no issues with Hope Annabelle. Annabelle isn't at all redneck.

    I have a Hope Angela if you need more suggestions.

  • I like your suggestions, in part because they are 3 syllables, which I think are a good balance for a one syllable first name (see my baby's name...).

    Maybe Natalie, Allison, or Abigail?

  • How about Hope Ann?
  • I don't think of Annabelle as redneck at all; I think it's classic and beautiful.

    I do like Hope Gabrielle.
