Girl Names
1

We are considering the name [name]Tuesday[/name] for our little girl due in [name]April[/name]. We need help finding a good middle name. We like:
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] Smallman (worried about overused [name]Rose[/name] but we like the way it sounds)
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Paige[/name] Smallman
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] Smallman
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name] Smallman (meaningful b/c my grandmothers name was [name]Rachel[/name] and we were very close)
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Layne[/name] Smallman
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Lake[/name] Smallman ([name]Lake[/name] is a family name)

What are your opinions? Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I like [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name]

You aren’t the first to vote for [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] Smallman…thanks for your input!

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] is my favorite. Also:
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Dahlia[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rosalie[/name]

I agree that [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] sounds nice, but [name]Rose[/name] is the [name]Ann[/name] or [name]Maire[/name] of years ago. Seems like all little girls lately have the mn [name]Rose[/name]!
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] is great!
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Paige[/name] is ok. [name]Paige[/name] is more unique mn than [name]Rose[/name] or [name]Claire[/name], but the flow isn’t as good.
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name] is nice especially if it has special meaning to you.
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Layne[/name] is nice but niether name is very feminine to me.
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Lake[/name] is a little odd to me for some reason.

I like [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Paige[/name] and [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name], especcially if it has a special meaning to you. I think it would be really cute if you hiphentated [name]Rae[/name] with one of the other names.
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Paige[/name]-[name]Rae[/name]?
Or you don`t have to hiphenate it and just use two middles. Good luck!!!

I like [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] & [name]Lake[/name] … also:

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Michelle[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Willow[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Caris[/name]

I have always loved the name [name]Tuesday[/name] (and [name]Wednesday[/name], Friday and [name]Sunday[/name]!)

I think all of your combos are sweet, but I would hands down vote for [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name] because of it’s connection to your grandmother alone. I also like [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rachel[/name]… or did your grandmother have a middle name/ maiden name that might be an option?

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is beautiful but it reminds me very much of [name]Sunday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] ([name]Nicole[/name] Kidman and [name]Keith[/name] [name]Urban[/name]'s little girl). Since day names are so unusual, I could see a fair amount of people making that connection.

Because [name]Tuesday[/name] is a word and your last name, Smallman, is comprised of two words, I’d personally avoid a word name in the middle (ie: [name]Rose[/name] or [name]Lake[/name]).

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] Smallman (worried about overused [name]Rose[/name] but we like the way it sounds): I’d personally avoid a word name in the middle. I do think that [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rose[/name] sounds pretty, but it reminds me of [name]Nicole[/name] Kidman’s baby, [name]Sunday[/name] [name]Rose[/name], and with [name]Rose[/name] Smallman, the Ss run together when I say it out loud. You may also like [name]Tuesday[/name] Rosabel.

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Paige[/name] Smallman: [name]Even[/name] though it’s spelled [name]Paige[/name] and not [name]Page[/name], I think of a page in [name]Tuesday[/name]'s paper. I think a name without a long A sound ([name]Day[/name] and the Pay sound rhyme) would sound great!

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] Smallman: I love it!! :slight_smile:

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name] Smallman (meaningful b/c my grandmothers name was [name]Rachel[/name] and we were very close): [name]Even[/name] though it has a long A sound, I think its meaning to you is way more important. :slight_smile:

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Layne[/name] Smallman: I like some of the other names more…

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Lake[/name] Smallman ([name]Lake[/name] is a family name): I like the sound of [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] more, and I love names that aren’t words with [name]Tuesday[/name] and your last name.

I thought I read that you were looking for a Spanish middle name, but maybe that was on a different thread. Most of them didn’t work with [name]Tuesday[/name] to me, but I think that [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Maria[/name] Smallman is really pretty.

In addition to [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Maria[/name], some other combos with longer middles that you may like:

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] (popular, though)

I also really love the idea of [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name], because even though [name]Elizabeth[/name] is a safe middle, I think it words really well with the more offbeat [name]Tuesday[/name]. Plus, her initials would spell TES, and she could always use “[name]Tess[/name]” as a nickame.

[name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] is my favorite on your list, but I love the meaning behind [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Rae[/name]. I think that [name]Tuesday[/name] is adorable, and I’d love to meet a little [name]Tuesday[/name]!

Good luck! :slight_smile:

You brought up some really great points…my husband and I are sitting here reading you email and very very happy to have your suggestions. I never even thought of [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Maria[/name] Smallman. [name]Maria[/name] is my hispanic grandmothers name, so that is a good one! We are leaning toward [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name] but [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is also a great combo. Thanks so much for your input :slight_smile:

[name]Hi[/name]! You’re welcome! I love [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Maria[/name] Smallman! I’ve always thought [name]Maria[/name] was a gorgeous name. :slight_smile: I was thinking of [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Emilia[/name], too, until I realized that pronounced in Spanish, it has a long A at the beginning. :frowning:

I really, really love [name]Tuesday[/name] [name]Claire[/name], too!

Whatever you choose, I hope it’s something you love! :slight_smile:

Take care!
