Middle names for Nell?

Not expecting, just excited about names :slight_smile:

Lately I am loving the name [name_f]Nell[/name_f] for a girl. I’m toying with the idea of using [name_f]Nell[/name_f] as a nickname for a longer name ([name_f]Ellen[/name_f], [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]) but my husband and I love the name [name_f]Nell[/name_f] the most when it’s on its own.

I’m having a really hard time coming up with good middle names though! I feel like [name_f]Nell[/name_f] needs a girly, flowery, long-ish middle to balance out its short spunkiness. I’ve only thought of two that I like: [name_f]Nell[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] and [name_f]Nell[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]. Neither seem perfect though. I would prefer to avoid names that start with a vowel, to keep it from sounding like “[name_f]Nella[/name_f]” or “[name_u]Nelly[/name_u]”, etc.

So how about it? What middle name would you give to [name_f]Nell[/name_f]?

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the name [name_f]Nell[/name_f]- its so short and simple yet I imagine a very sophisticated woman to wear this name.
I would stick to a longer, girly middle name as you said as [name_f]Nell[/name_f] is short and and quite tomboy. I love [name_f]Nell[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] but here are some middle name suggestions!!!

[name_f]Josephina[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Camellia[/name_f]
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Liliana[/name_f]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

I like [name_f]Nell[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
