Need a middle name for Audrey

beautiflaw · April 2011

I am having the worst trouble picking a middle name. We have decided on the first name Audrey but I can't decide on a middle name I like. Our last name is Duncan.

We're not really into the Hope, Grace, Faith blah dee blah, but we don't want names that don't mean anything, or names of cities or foods or things like that. We do like unisex names and names that are less common. We don't like crazy spellings.

Names that out (not that we don't like them, but we know people with these names) are Robin, Ruby, Rachel, Jane, Anne, Alicia, Stephanie, Karla, Elizabeth, Olivia, Alice, Lauryn, Amber, Natalie, Jessica, Megan, Lynn, Kensley, Kaylie, Kylie, Casey, Crystal, Trinity, and Michelle.

I know I'm being picky but I mean, its the name my kid will be stuck with for life.

Here are the names I do like. I really like them but none of them seems like "the one" to me right now.

Audrey Sophia - sophia's in the top 10 right now and we don't want to do a common name

Audrey Camille

Audrey Victoria - hubs thinks victoria is too stuffy but he doesn't hate it

Audrey Scarlet

Audrey Greer - not sure if this one flows

Audrey Gwyneth or Audrey Gwendolyn

Audrey Tallulah - my mom would probably hate this one but I like it

Audrey Georgina

The first thing that popped into my head was Audrey Noelle. Of your list I like Audrey Camille. With Audrey having a "hard" sound I like a softer sounding middle for balance.

Yes- I'm uptight about names. Embarrassed

I love Noelle too, in fact that was one of my first picks. But unfortunately I remembered that we had a dog named Noelle... and she tried to kill me. Not a good memory. Great suggestion though. Thank you!

I'm sorry I'm too mesmerized by your over abundance of siggy badges to focus on your question...wow.

I believe in naming children after something you love, how about Audrey Badge?

I think middle names are perfect for honoring family or someone you love. That being said our daughter's name will be Audrey Lynn. MIL and SIL's both have the mn Lynn.

A couple of other mn we considered were: Anna, Luann, Leanne, Stella

My sister really wanted us to use Audrey Ella.

DH likes to refer to her as Audrey 2 in reference to the man eating plant on "Little shop of horrors"
