Aaaaaaaaannndd we’re back! A little sooner than expected, but thrilled nonetheless. We’ve got two boys (with very Scottish first names) and this will definitely be our last kiddo. We will probably be super stumped for boys names, but we’ve got two clear front-runners for girls: [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] and [name_f]Sabine[/name_f]. I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the combo [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] but am not yet fully sold on [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] with her spelling confusion and Irish heritage questions. But I am also struggling to find a middle name combo that I love for [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] as much as the combo [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f].
Our two boys have family name middles, so I’ve tried pretty much every family name in the middle slot with only a tentative maybe on [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Anneliese[/name_f]. Both boys’ middles are loosely connected to animals too, so that might be a direction to keep exploring. I’ve tried favorite Shakespearean heroines but nothing jumped out. My husband is Catholic but didn’t really have any favorite saints to consider. We haven’t really incorporated much of the kids Irish, Italian, Dutch, or [name_m]German[/name_m] heritage yet, so those might be other angles.
Help Nameberries! We’re still really early days, so this isn’t urgent, but I’d love more options to mull over! What sounds beautiful, and could be meaningful, with [name_f]Sabine[/name_f]??

[name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] would work really beautifully if pronunced vi-OH-la, but my usual preference the [name_f]VI[/name_f]-oh-la pronounciation. 
Apparently three-syllable names with the accent in the second syllable sound good to my ear.
I’m surprised at how much I like [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Sabina[/name_f].

[name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Eilidh[/name_f] came to mind, as did:

I love [name_f]Sabine[/name_f]!! It’s been one of my favorites for a long time. [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] is adorable. I’ve always loved [name_f]Eda[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f].
[name_f]Adela[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f]
[name_f]Ruthie[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f]

I find [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Audra[/name_f] and [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Astra[/name_f] intriguing, and [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Leonie[/name_f] would actually be perfect because it’s both animal and has a family connection. We really like [name_f]Oona[/name_f] as a name but I wasn’t sure of the flow of [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Oona[/name_f]/[name_f]Una[/name_f], so I’m glad to see it suggested!
Thanks everyone!
What do people think of [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Beatriz[/name_f]?
Any more suggestions??
@babies123456 Both [name_f]Eda[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] and [name_f]Adela[/name_f] [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] are lovely!
@eternalfaith [name_f]Sabine[/name_f] [name_f]Kerensa[/name_f] is pretty. I like the Welsh connection!
