Nora needs a middle name!

Should our little bug turn out to be a girl, we are pretty settled on [name_f]Nora[/name_f]. But with our short hard sounding last name of C00k, we need something longer in the middle. Most other names I like also are 2 syllables and end in A and are too repetitive.
[name_f]Linnea[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
etc.
Looking for suggestions for a longer name that isn’t too frilly and doesn’t end in a. Go!

[name_m]How[/name_m] about

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]

I’ve always loved [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], but [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is too filler for me to actually use.

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] C o o k does sound very pretty, though!

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_u]Hadley[/name_u] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] C o o k

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Lillian[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Miriam[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] C o o k
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] C o o k

My First thought was [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] Cₒₒk; [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think it’s too plain?
I don’t think you necessarily need a long name, just a middle name that doesn’t end in “a”
Also, maybe you’d like:
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Violette[/name_f] Cₒₒk
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] Cₒₒk

I really like pp suggestion of [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]!

I’m a fan of [name_u]Jean[/name_u]. It’s as strong as [name_m]Both[/name_m] [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and cook, without having to worry about lengthiness.

[name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]! [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Madelyn[/name_f] also came to mind. And just because I’m so into this name lately, I’ll throw [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_u]Meredith[/name_u] out there :slight_smile:

Ooh, I like the suggestion of [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] C00k.
My own first thought was [name_f]Mirabelle[/name_f]. I like the repetition of the ‘ra’.
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Melody[/name_f] is another one I really like.

Thanks for all the suggestions ladies…but I must have spent to much time lurking on this site. Nothing really knocking my socks off.

Names like [name_f]Jane[/name_f] and [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] I find boring.
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Jaqueline[/name_f], [name_f]CLementine[/name_f] etc. too over the top.
[name_f]Madelyn[/name_f], [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] etc far too dated for my style.

Suggestions that are headed in the right direction:
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] - so-so
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] - wish I liked it more
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f]

Any more help out there? Not in love with anything yet :frowning:
