I think [name]Maple[/name] is a lovely name but I can’t decide which middle name goes well with it. I like animal, birds and nature names amongst others.
Here are a few ideas:
Sparrow, Everley, Lark, Dove, Minnie, Brinn
*I came across Menorah as a middle name when looking at Minnie so any opinions on Maple Menorah?!
[name]Maple[/name] [name]Delilah[/name] and [name]Maple[/name] [name]Everley[/name] are my favorites from your list!
[name]Maple[/name] [name]Teale[/name] (I’ve met 2 girls with this name, prn [name]Tea[/name]-lee)
[name]Maple[/name] [name]Aurora[/name]
[name]Maple[/name] [name]Callista[/name]
Thank you everyone! There are some great ideas that you’ve suggested and definitely given me a lot to think about! [name]Aurora[/name] and [name]Skye[/name] are beautiful and [name]Felicity[/name] is a name I’ve never thought of before.
Thanks kyliejeanx3. I do like those names too. I’ve never heard of Teale but I like it!
I love [name_f]Maple[/name_f]!!! It’s on my short list and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] and [name_u]Winter[/name_u] are my top middle name choices right now. [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] (it doesn’t sound right with the rest of my name so I couldn’t use it) and [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would also be beautiful!
*What about [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Eira[/name_f] (“ay-ra”, Welsh name that means “snow”)? [name_f]Do[/name_f] they run together too much? Or [name]Maple[/name] [name]Eirlys[/name] (“AYR-liss” Welsh - “snowdrop”)?
Hmm…
My thoughts on the combinations:
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] - I think this is just too over-the-top, [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] in my eyes isn’t attractive, as a name [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] feels very weak and timid, combined with [name_f]Maple[/name_f] the combination feels so strange. I really dislike it.
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_m]Everley[/name_m] - [name_f]Maple[/name_f] sounds lovely with [name_m]Everley[/name_m] I just think this combination sounds so delightful together. [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_m]Everley[/name_m] has a very natural flow and just looks lovely. I also like [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] which feels so retro.
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] - [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is a lovely name, she has a very sweet sound but I think combined with [name_f]Maple[/name_f] the name doesn’t work.
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u] - [name_u]Dove[/name_u] just feels so strange with [name_f]Maple[/name_f]. In all honesty I think [name_f]Maple[/name_f] needs a more traditional stronger name, not a name that is rarely used, [name_u]Dove[/name_u] just feels ridiculous.
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] - [name_m]Ah[/name_m] this has a great flow, [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] has the spark and seriousness that [name_f]Maple[/name_f] needs. [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] sounds beautiful together! [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] combination.
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_u]Brinn[/name_u] - [name_u]Brinn[/name_u] is too short for [name_f]Maple[/name_f].
Thanks for all of the suggestions! [name_f]Eira[/name_f] is a cute name but doesn’t flow very well for me. [name_u]Everly[/name_u], [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] and [name_u]Winter[/name_u] seem to be popular with you berries which helps me a lot.
*The reason I thought of [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] was because I want her to soar high and aim high like a bird but to remain grounded like the maple tree. Without saying this I can see why people may not like it. More of a sentiment thing.
Thank you! I also had an idea of [name_f]Maple[/name_f] Menorah (found it when looking at [name_f]Minnie[/name_f] as a nn) and think that it sounds good together. Any opinions?!
