[name_f]IMO[/name_f], [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] has the prettiest flow.

I like [name_f]Maria[/name_f], I think it’s very pretty and more distinctive than [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and [name_f]Marie[/name_f] in the middle spot.

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] sounds great and has the most significance - I say you have a winner!

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] is my least favorite of the three options, but if you like [name_f]Mary[/name_f] the best then you should use it! I voted for [name_f]Marie[/name_f], but now I’m thinking [name_f]Maria[/name_f] might’ve been a better choice. [name_m]How[/name_m] many syllables are in your last name? That might tell you whether you should go with a two-syllabled or three-syllabled middle name.

Last name has 2 syllables. I actually think it’s the 3-3 pattern of Josephine Maria that’s giving me a pause. I’m not sure if it actually sounds off or if it’s just feels awkward because it’s longer than combos we normally use.

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] definitely is my favorite! For some reason, I was thinking [name_f]Maria[/name_f]/[name_f]Mariana[/name_f]/[name_f]Marina[/name_f] but found it unrealistic, for some reason? So I was thinking, “Oh, [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] would be nice.” Before I opened the thread. But [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] is darling! Definitely my favorite. As a bearer of the MN [name_f]Marie[/name_f], I am definitely against it, lol! I’ve never liked it, and still don’t, and I think there are so many other beautiful forms of [name_f]Mary[/name_f] out there. I would love to see [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] or [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f], or even [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Mariana[/name_f] or [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Marina[/name_f].

Good luck!

Any of them would be great

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] fits best, although I like it the least of the three names. [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] is a second for me. [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] just doesn’t flow as nicely to my ear.
