Expecting in [name_f]May[/name_f] 2017 and having trouble picking a middle name for a girl. We already decided on a girl’s first name, which is [name_f]Emily[/name_f], however having difficulty deciding on a middle name. Would like a way to honor both my mother ([name_f]Elaine[/name_f]) and mother-in-law ([name_f]Eileen[/name_f]) names in the middle name although I don’t want another E initial.
Has to go with our last name, which is [name_m]Jackson[/name_m].
If anyone could give any suggestions that would be a great help.
[name_f]Elaine[/name_f] and [name_f]Eileen[/name_f] have the same meaning. [name_u]Bright[/name_u] shining light/one The other non E names I found with that meaning (or very similar) are:
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Lainie[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] (my favorite)
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Aileen[/name_f] (too close to [name_f]Eileen[/name_f]?)
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Ilka[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Meissa[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] (my other favorite)
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Yelena[/name_f]
