Names to go with Jolene?

Girl Names
1

Hello! I am a LONG time lurker around nameberry, but a first time poster on the forums, as my husband and I just found out we’re expecting! :smile:

If it’s a girl, we’re fairly confident that her middle name will be [name_f]Jolene[/name_f], which holds a lot of meaning for us because it unites our two families. (Our moms’ middle names are [name_u]Jo[/name_u] and [name_f]Eileen[/name_f], and our maternal grandmothers’ names are [name_f]Alena[/name_f] and [name_f]Joanne[/name_f].) We’re prepared for the inevitable [name_f]Dolly[/name_f] [name_m]Parton[/name_m] references, but we’d also like to pair it with a strong, relatively classic first name to balance it out and give it less of a “country” feel overall. DH has a very common first name and I have a very rare first name; ideally, we’d like something in between. Right now we’re leaning towards [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]/Cecelia. Any other ideas??
