I’m trying to make a list – mostly for writing purposes – of names that have the same appeal as the so called “default” middle names (eg [name]Rose[/name], [name]Lynn[/name], [name]Marie[/name], etc) with none of the predictability. There isn’t much on my list of favourite names that qualifies, apart from things like [name]Wren[/name], [name]Della[/name], [name]Ruth[/name], etc. So I thought I’d ask for contributions.
Basically, they should be names that could so easily become default middle names, if they caught on; names that flow well with a lot of common first names, look pretty, etc, etc.
