It's me again! legal name change

Name Advice
1

I am still stuck on a middle name. [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], while classic, needs a different middle name! I would rather avoid one syllable middle names that don’t have a long A in them. I am able to financially change my name in court now, and I want to finally settle on a new legal name. [name_f]Emma[/name_f] ______Taylor H (one syllable and has a prominent l.) Due to my first name choice and one syllable first name, I have had issues with deciding on a first middle. [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] will be my new maiden name.

Any suggestions are welcome, but any [name_f]Ann[/name_f] or [name_f]Anna[/name_f] names or any names that start with J.

While, I do adore the classics, most of them sound too plain to me. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] will be saved for a future daughter, and [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] is the closest to a classic name that I can remotely see myself using. I am feeling both excited and overwelmed on choosing a middle name. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I have discussed future baby names and we had an easier time with that than I do with choosing my middle name.

I like [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], but I can also see why you wouldn’t like to use it. Some alternatives:

[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] - are the double letters bothersome?
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] - a rarer classic
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_u]Florence[/name_u]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Madeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_u]Blythe[/name_u]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] these helped!
