Thoughts on names...

PSUBean22

So our 4 year old named this baby: Isabella.  However, DH and I cannot agree on a middle name.  Which do you prefer:

Haven

Elise

Evangeline

Harper

Helene

 Any others??  We are SO open to suggestions!

I think it is really awesome that you let your other child name this one. I don't think I would have ever thought about doing that down the line, but I could see how important that would make the other child feel. Props to you for that! 

Depending on how many syllables your last name is, I feel like a middle name with just one syllable comes off the tongue a lot better than a longer middle name. I first thought of Joy. But Mae, Lynne, and Hope. If you were to choose one of the ones you have listed, I think I prefer Haven!

Thank you so much!  My oldest just came up with it when we asked what we should name her.  Then I cried and DH loved the name, so it has stuck and the kids will not hear of anything else!

Some things are just meant to be! And you will always have a perfect story to tell her once she's grown up. Her and her sibling will always have a special bond, even before she's here!

I love Elise:

My favorite on that list is Elise.  Since Isabella is a longer syllable name I think shorter syllable names sound the best!

Isabella Elise is very pretty!

A good friend named her baby Isabella Grace, I liked that one too. Great choices!

It isn't final but Isabella is high on our list with a middle name of Marie.

I love Harper!

Isabella Harper! I think Elise is kind of a mouthful when paired together...
My stepmom let me name my baby sister when I was 11, that is so cool that you let her do that.

I like Isabella Elise and Isabella Helene the best.

I vote for Elise because that's what my DD's middle name is going to be!  Hannah Elise

My personal preference would be Harper for the middle name just because I like how it sounds with Isabella.

I like harper, but I also like Grace because Isabella Grace rolls off the tongue. And when I found out I was having a boy I let my 4 yr old niece help pick out the name and she choose Oliver and for the middle name I went with the letter J and Lewis. Because my mom's dads name was J. Bradley and my dad's father's middle name was Louis but I like the E instead of louis.
