Looking for a cool middle to go with a two-syllable first (last name peterson). Nothing too common (so no [name]Anne[/name], [name]Grace[/name], [name]Rose[/name] etc). We love Swedish/Scandinavian names but short ones are hard to come by. ANY suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks in advance : )
Some that come to mind: [name]Mame[/name], [name]Lael[/name], [name]France[/name] & [name]Merle[/name]. Not too Swedish/Scandinavian but all 1 syllable,
[name]Wren[/name]
[name]Skye[/name]
[name]Ash[/name]
[name]Brooke[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Noor[/name]
[name]Dove[/name]
[name]Elle[/name]
[name]Faye[/name]
[name]Greer[/name]
[name]Mae[/name]
[name]Lane[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Wynn[/name]
Britt and Liv are the only one syllable Scandinavian names I can think of.
Some unique, one syllable names ( I can’t think of any swedish/scandinavian ones…):

Here are all the one-syllable girl names from my list - they are all over the place in terms of style, but I hope something helps!
[name]Belle[/name]
[name]Clove[/name]
[name]Crane[/name]
[name]Day[/name]
[name]Doe[/name]
[name]Elm[/name]
[name]Fern[/name]

Peach
[name]Pine[/name]
[name]Ruth[/name]
[name]Quince[/name]
[name]Sage[/name]
[name]True[/name]
[name]West[/name]
All the names I thought of already listed though I do love Eve, Sage, Mae, True and Paz. How about Neve pronounced like the sound of Nev as in Rev?
[name]Wren[/name] was my first idea. I like a lot of the other names that were suggested–[name]Liv[/name], [name]True[/name], [name]Lux[/name], [name]Belle[/name], [name]Quinn[/name], [name]Lark[/name], [name]Eve[/name], [name]Bay[/name], [name]Fleur[/name], [name]Snow[/name], [name]Elle[/name], [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Rue[/name].
I’m not sure these were listed yet, but I think these would be cool:
[name]Viv[/name]
[name]Shay[/name]
[name]Reese[/name]
[name]Paige[/name]
[name]Sage[/name]
[name]Maeve[/name]
[name]Jules[/name]
[name]Greer[/name]/[name]Grier[/name]
[name]Faye[/name]
[name]Blair[/name]
[name]Bea[/name]
[name]Blue[/name]
[name]Rae[/name]
Good luck!
luz, bette, ray, nelle or cole?
[name]Liv[/name] seems perfect to me too - there’s not much else I don’t think. If you are open to short 2-syllable names there are a lot more. There is [name]Rut[/name] (prn root), the Scandi take on [name]Ruth[/name], but that seems highly problematic.
