Middle name for Thea

Girl Names
1

I’m not currently pregnant, but DH and I plan on trying to conceive in [name_u]December[/name_u]. I’ve recently fallen in love with [name_f]Thea[/name_f], but am stumped on middle names.
Some checkboxes that [name_f]Thea[/name_f] fits:
LOTS of meaning- the first three letters are my father, father-in-law, and grandfathers first initial!
My dad and great grandma have names that end in THY, so I love the connection of [name_f]Thea[/name_f], [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f], and [name_m]Timothy[/name_m].
[name_f]Theia[/name_f] was an amazing figure in Greek mythology

I like [name_f]Jane[/name_f] as a middle (my moms middle is [name_u]Jean[/name_u] and I just can’t get behind how country it sounds), but I worry two 1-syllable names is a little clipped.

I like vintage literary names, and generally find myself falling in the familiar but not incredibly popular camp. I love surname names, but also feel [name_f]Thea[/name_f] might be balanced a bit with a more feminine flowy middle?

Any suggestions would be appreciated and help to quell/fuel my baby fever :slight_smile:

[name_f]Thea[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds fine to me. [name_f]Thea[/name_f] is two syllables, surely? “Thee-uh”.

[name_f]Thea[/name_f] is gorgeous and maybe you would like [name_f]Thea[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] (or it can also be spelled [name_f]Jenevieve[/name_f]). I think either spelling could honour your Mom.

[name_f]Thea[/name_f] is two syllables so I think [name_f]Thea[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] works well. [name_f]Thea[/name_f] is such a lovely name and one I’ve thought about for my own daughter, who’s due any day now! Another option similar to [name_u]Jean[/name_u] and [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is [name_f]Thea[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]? That would be my favourite of these sorts of middles.
