Hey all! We are pregnant and crossing our fingers for a baby girl! We will find out soon 
as a first name, we have chosen [name_f]Freya[/name_f] and as a middle name, I’d like to name her after my husband. He name is [name_u]Bradley[/name_u] [name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_u]Ryan[/name_u]. All 3 names I am not a fan of. Can you think of any alternatives that are still a tribute to him? Our second son has my middle name, and our first son has his grandfather’s name. Boy names would be helpful, too. I like [name_u]James[/name_u] as a first thank you all!
Maybe a feminine form of [name_u]Michael[/name_u], like [name_f]Michaela[/name_f] or [name_f]Michelle[/name_f]? I think [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Michaela[/name_f]'s a bit rhymey, but still pretty, but [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] flows well. My only ideas for honoring [name_u]Bradley[/name_u] are either [name_u]Hadley[/name_u] (a unisex name that rhymes with [name_u]Bradley[/name_u]) or [name_f]Bryony[/name_f] (which starts and ends in the same sounds?)–I think both [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_u]Hadley[/name_u] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Bryony[/name_f] are both sweet. I think [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Rianna[/name_f] or [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] would also work for [name_u]Ryan[/name_u].
Good luck!

I like the idea of using [name_f]Leah[/name_f].
I had noted it as sort of a riff off of [name_u]Bradley[/name_u], but I just noticed it’s also the last 4 letters of [name_u]Michael[/name_u], backwards.
[name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Mieke[/name_f] sounds really nice to me!
[name_f]Mieke[/name_f] is -according to nameberry- pronounced MEEK-uh
