We are pretty set on naming our baby girl Joley Bucci, but cant seem to figure out a middle name.
Joley came from my late grandparents, Joe & Shirley.
Here are the options so far:
Joley Isabel Bucci
Joley Eliana Bucci
Joley Rose Bucci
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
Re: Help name our baby girl!
Didn't you just say that you came up with it by combining Joe and Shirley? The fact that it looks like an anglicized version of a French word is a coincidence.
I agree w/ pp that Josephine Shirley would be a great name. Joley sounds juvenile to me and I would be annoyed by people asking, "like Angelina Jolie?" all the time.

I like Isabel the best.
FWIW, I went to school with a girl named Joley so it's not a made up name in my opinion, just an uncommon one.
Joley Rose from your list.
I have a friend who named her daughter "Jolie" and I think it's beautiful. Out of your options, I love "Joley Isabel" the best, with "Joley Rose" coming in second.
Good luck!!
i like the name in theory, but i prefer either of the more traditional spellings: jolie or joely.
will you prefer to pronounce it JOE-lee (like joely fisher or joely richards) or zsho-LEE (like angelina jolie)?
as for your middle names, i think rose flows the best.
I like the name and think Rose flows best!
