Help with a middle name for Evelyn.

My grandmother, mother and me share the middle name Jo. I want to honor them, but I'm not a fan of my short middle name. We are not telling anyone the names we pick until after the baby arrives, so I really appreciate the input. Any suggestions for other Jo names is also appreciated.

    Love the name Jolene.

    My DD is Josephine, so I will throw that out there, but I don't think it flows well with Evelyn.  There's also Joelle.

    I actually like Evelyn Jo more than the poll options. What about Joy, Joyce, or Joan?

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Evelyn Josette!!  All 3 are good mns for Evelyn (it was tied at 11 each when I voted,) but Evelyn Josette is smashing!

    Love Josette! NOT a fan of Jolene. To me, Jolene has a totally different feel. Instead of being light and European-ish and pretty, the name Jolene to me is much more heavy and country-ish.

    My mom and sis have Jo as mn. My sister's 3 cousins in her grade have Jo, Joanne, and Joelle as their mns.

    I also vote Josephine.  However, I really like Jo for a mn.  DD is Victoria Jo.  I call her Jo Jo for a nn.

    I like Jolie. Jolene would be my second pick but the N sound on both names doesn't balance as well as Jolie IMO
