We have a very common last name (Smith) and are having trouble coming down with a middle name for Adeline. Any suggestions? We also like Abigail Riley but with Abigail being so overused, we are looking for other options.
TTC #1 since 10/09:
Dx:unexplained anovulation
Cycle #1 8-9/10:Femara + TI = BFN
Cycle #2 10/10:Femara + TI = BFP 10/19 - blighted ovum 11/3
Rest for 11/10 and 12/10
Cycle #3 1/11 BFP 1/29! Beta #1 = 175, Beta #2 = 498!!
First u/s 2/14 showed heartbeat of 100bpm! EDD of 10/8/11
Adrian Cooper born 9/10/11 @ 36 weeks
Trying for #2 10/12
BFP 11/1/12 - due about 7/12/13!
First u/s 11/16 showed heartbeat
Second u/s 11/27 showed heartbeat of 150bpm! EDD of 7/12/13
Help us narrow down our ever expanding name list!
Adeline and Abigail are our top two girl choices as well, and I have also considered Riley. I guess we have pretty similar styles! I haven't thought of a MN for Adeline yet either, though I do like Cate, Rose, Jean/Jane (family names) or other short names.
Re: Middle name for Adeline?
I think Riley would work with Adeline too.
Some other ideas:
Faye
Brooke
Claire
Joy
Katherine
Hailey
Corinne
Honestly, most names seem to work; you just have to avoid names that end in -lyn. Here is a totally random list:
Adeline Matilda
Adeline Clarisse
Adeline Elizabeth
Adeline Claire
Adeline Rose
Adeline Morgan
Adeline Peyton
Adeline Penelope
Adeline
I don't like anything too long for a MN- I think it takes away from the flow of the first name (which I love btw!)
Adeline Renee
Adeline Grace
Just be careful of the middle initial (No Sarah or Samantha! lol)
