Middle name for Felicity...please give me your suggestions!

sundaesprinkles · September 2012

I'm having the hardest time finding a middle name that goes with Felicity. Our last name is two syllables and starts with B, so I don't want to use any names that start with F or B. I'm thinking it needs to be a one or two syllable name since Felicity is so long.

A few days ago in a poll I posted Felicity Kate and someone else mentioned that this combo made Kate sound harsh, which honestly I agree with. So I think it needs a name that is "elongated" sounding if that makes sense. For example, Elise is a elongated name whereas Kate is short sounding. But it can't be Elise because it runs together with the end of Felicity. (I pronounce Elise as "E-lease".) I've thought of Felicity Danielle, but I have bad associations with Danielle and I don't really want to use it. I've also thought of Felicity Ava but I'm not sure if that really goes together well. Anyone have any other ideas?

I personally like a 1-syllable MN if you have a 4syl FN and a 2syl LN.

Felicity Jane B...

Felicity Rose B....

Felicity Mae B...

Thanks for replying but I'd like to use something more interesting than those. Those are "filler" names for me.

Interesting 1 syllable names...Maeve, Wren, June, Tess, Pearl, Brooke, Claire, Lark?

My cousin's name is Felicity Kyra. Works well for her, may or may not be your style though.

I immediately thought Elizabeth.

I like the PP suggestion of Marie, but also, have you considered Michelle? It has the same flow as Danielle, but wouldn't have the negative associations that name carries for you.

Claire is okay....I love Brooke, but I'm still considering that as a possible first name so it's hard for me to put it in the middle name spot. Plus I'd rather avoid a B middle name since our last name starts with B. The rest are NMS.

I'm not sure if that's pronounced like Keira or if the Ky part is like Kylie. Keira is another top first name pick for us, so I don't want to use it as a middle name.

Maybe I just need to settle on a first name first. But it's hard for me to pick unless I have first/middle combos.

Michelle is even worse for me. I've known a lot of Michelle's and only one of them isn't crazy! I'd rather use Danielle than Michelle. I'm sorry, I don't mean to be difficult!

We had Felicity picked out as a girl's name if DS was a girl and planned to do Felicity Nicole (Nicole is my sister's name). We've decided to use Clara Nicole for DD, but if we have another daughter at some point, would consider Felicity again and most likely would use Ann as the MN (which is my MN). I like to try to use names with family connections for middle names so they don't have that "filler" feel.

No problem. I'm not particularly fond of Michelle either. I'm just trying to think of something with a similar rhythm and not coming up with much!
