Middle names for Lila?

Girl Names

I love the name [name_f]Lila[/name_f] – particularly, how multicultural it is: coming from a mixed background, it’s the only name I’ve found that represents both cultures. The problem is, I can’t come up with a combination that I’m fully sold on. So far, I’ve thought of:

• [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] (too many L’s? Also, I love the name [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], but I dislike the [name_m]Romeo[/name_m] & [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] connotation.)
• [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] (again, too many L’s? Also, does this sound a bit pretentious?)
• [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] (not sure how well this flows, but I like the tribute to [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] Bergman)

That’s all I have…what do you all think of these? [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any other suggestions?

[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is really pretty. I don’t think it sounds pretentious, just very pretty. [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] is lovely too and I think it flows nicely

A couple of suggestions:
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]

[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] doesn’t have too many Ls imo.
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] is ok. What about [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]?
I don’t care for [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] in the middle spot. Maybe: [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f], or [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Francine[/name_f].

I like both [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] in the middle. While I love [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f], I don’t like it with [name_f]Lila[/name_f].

I don’t think your options have too many L’s but I do understand your concerns about negative connotations and the slightly pretentious sound of [name_f]Delphine[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]!! [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] doesn’t flow right imo. [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is ok but I’m not really fond of it however this would probably mostly be having different styles.
