Middle name help! Pregnant after TTC 8 years

We just found out we’re pregnant. We’ve been TTC for 8 years so we are super excited. We have first names we have chosen for each gender.

We are thinking Rio for a boy and Jade for a girl.

For Rio, we think Wyatt might be the middle name. We have no idea about Jade’s middle name.

Our last name starts and ends with A so preferably no middle names starting or ending with A. I’m open to the style, however since they are both nature type names (River in Spanish, gemstone) I would rather them not sound like description names. IE., Jade Meadow, Rio Wolf, etc.

Give me your favorite middle names for Rio and Jade!

Those are just some of my opinions! For Jade I would go with a longer middle name because Jade’s sort of short. I would do the same thing with Rio. Wyatt is actually quite nice! Family names might be something to consider as well! My favorite is Brielle and Arielle for Jade!

Ok so here’s another question for you guys! Someone on another app suggested [name_u]Jade[/name_u] [name_f]Persephone[/name_f]. Honestly, [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] has always been my guilty pleasure name but I’m worried it’s not usable. Part of me feels like the middle name isn’t said as often so it wouldn’t be as difficult as using it for the first name, but my other thought is people are going to give me a hard time over it.

Greek mythology is one of my favorite things and honestly, [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] is my favorite. She’s also thought to be related to the Virgo constellation which this baby will possibly be a Virgo (I know this can change so it will either be Virgo or Leo) but my dad, grandpa (who just passed last year) and my favorite and only nephew are Virgos as well so it’s sentimental in that aspect.

Is [name_u]Jade[/name_u] [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] actually usable in real life?
