Need a beautiful German middle name

missmelissa · June 6, 2013, 9:57am

I posted yesterday about this, just refreshing a little.

I am of English and Portuguese origin. My hubby is English, [name]German[/name] and American [name]Indian[/name]. Interesting baby mix huh? Anyway, off my list from yesterday the three names from my heritage that I like most are [name]INES[/name], [name]NINA[/name], [name]BIANCA[/name] and [name]CATARINA[/name]. However, I am having a very difficult time finding a [name]German[/name] name to use as a middle. The only one I have considered is [name]ANNELIESE[/name]. It’s a very old fashioned [name]German[/name] name and [name]ANNE[/name] honors my mother. I just don’t really like the flow of it with any of the names I like. What do you all think?

Please make suggestions on some other [name]German[/name] girls names that would work well as middles for each one of the names I suggested. Our last name is [name]Farmer[/name]-unfortunately I don’t have a say on her last name lol.

[name]INES[/name] ____ [name]FARMER[/name]
[name]NINA[/name] ____ [name]FARMER[/name]
[name]BIANCA[/name] ____ [name]FARMER[/name]
[name]CATARINA[/name] ____ [name]FARMER[/name]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the help

I like [name]Anneliese[/name], but it may be troublesome because your 1st names end in A.

My favorite [name]German[/name] girl names are:
[name]Liesel[/name]
[name]Heidi[/name]
[name]Adele[/name]

[name]How[/name] about [name]Sabine[/name]? Or [name]Elke[/name] - although that’s not as good with your chosen forenames!)

I second [name]Bianca[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name]. But I also think [name]Bianca[/name] [name]Anneliese[/name] is nice. (I don’t like [name]Nina[/name] [name]Anneliese[/name], because both [name]Nina[/name] and [name]Anneliese[/name] mean [name]Ann[/name]). [name]Ines[/name] [name]Anneliese[/name] is great too. [name]Bianca[/name] is such a lovely name, though. As is [name]Anneliese[/name]. I think that’s what I’d pick.
