Middle Name Opinions & Suggestions Needed

My fiance and I had decided back around week 12 that Charlotte was going to be our LO's name. He "just knew" it was going to be a girl and Charlotte's Web just happened to be on TV and we realized we both LOVED the book growing up. As luck would have it, he was right about LO being a girl. But now we can't figure out a middle name. We've found a few, but are only luke warm to them. We even downloaded a couple apps on the iPad for names and have gone through hundreds of names. I accept the fact that we're being too picky. And I know we have plenty of time to find the "perfect" name. I just figured a few third party opinions would help. So, here are the few we keep coming back to:
Charlotte Ann/Anne - We like how it sounds. But it's my mother's middle name...and we're not exactly fans of the idea of giving LO a name associated with her crazy grandmother. 
Charlotte Marie - We really liked it until we found out it meant "bitter" but we haven't been able to let it go.
Charlotte Leigh - Liked it, then realized the "L" sound back-to-back in the full name was a little too much.
Charlotte Joann - So she could be CJ for a nickname...but then he was afraid she'd get made fun of for sounding like a little country bumpkin.
Charlotte Olivia - His idea...because of the initials...they would be COK...did I mention my fiance is just an oversized middle school boy at heart? At least it's endearing.

Opinions and suggestions are strongly encouraged! And I've seen what a lot of you post so I know there will be good ones, funny ones, and probably a perfect one in there somewhere :-D

ladyamanuet - I like Jean. Makes me think of Jean Grey from X-Men.
candacemg1 - Lynn is my middle name. I fully support your decision to use it down the line

My mom wanted to name me Brandi Joelynn. She wanted to call me BJ for short.
My dad nixed that so fast! He didn't want my initials to be BJ!
My mom didn't understand, she just really liked the name, until my dad explained it.
I thank my dad. I would have hated it.
My middle name is Lynn.

My middle name is Leigh and I love it, but I agree with you on the double L sound.

I vote Jo! I'm biased as it's my mn!
And Charlotte Anne

My grandmom was Charlotte Virginia, but that sounds old to me.
Grace is pretty, and I like Rose too.
