I’m hopefully going to be adopting a baby girl soon and her birth mom has requested that her middle name be [name_f]Bella[/name_f]. I’m happy to honor this request but it is making choosing a first name tricky as most of my previous favorites end in “a” sounds! So, help me find something I love!
I like longer, Classic names. [name_m]French[/name_m], Cajun, or Southern preferred. Having a cute nickname option is a must! Last name is one syllable similar to [name_m]Holt[/name_m]. I’ll list some of my favorites but feel free to add more!
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] nn [name_f]Millie[/name_f]
[name_f]Elouise[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] nn [name_u]Lou[/name_u]
[name_f]Camille[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] nn [name_f]Millie[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nola[/name_f] or [name_f]Maggie[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] is so sweet and musical! And with the nickname [name_f]Millie[/name_f]… <3. I really like Magnolia Bella and Matilda Bella, too, but my vote definitely goes to Amelia.
Louisa Bella nn Lou, Lou-Lou, Lucy, Lola
Susanna Bella nn Susie, Anna, Annie
Olivia Bella nn Livia, Livie, Liv, Olive
Verona Bella nn Vee, Vinny, Rona

Hope this helps 
You don’t think having both end in “a” sounds too rhyming? I have always loved [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]…”
No, not at all! [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] and [name_f]Bella[/name_f] don’t share enough sounds to sound rhymey to my ear, and [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] being three syllables helps too. 
[name_f]Bella[/name_f] is a hard one to work with! But lovely!
I like the suggestion [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f]. Nn’s can be [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Emme[/name_f], and even [name_f]Millie[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_u]Penny[/name_u], [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] (my fav), [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_u]Nelly[/name_u]
[name_f]Romilly[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_f]Milly[/name_f]
Avonlea [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - Avvy, [name_f]Vonnie[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_f]Evie[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_f]Evie[/name_f]
[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_f]Addie[/name_f], [name_f]Della[/name_f], [name_u]Adley[/name_u]
I think it’s okay to have a first name that ends with a! I love your list [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Elouise[/name_f] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] in particular. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the nicknames [name_f]Millie[/name_f] and [name_u]Lou[/name_u] too. Congratulations by the way!
Another vote for [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f]. I love it!
