With a 3 syllable first and a longer last name, I’d steer clear of long middles like [name]Genevieve[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Georgiana[/name], and [name]Eugenie[/name] (though I do like them). I think [name]Charlotte[/name] and [name]Annette[/name] are ok, but much prefer [name]Claire[/name], [name]Helen[/name], and original [name]Tirtza[/name]. Congrats!

I think [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name] or [name]Charlotte[/name] would be really cute. Good luck with the baby!!!

I love the ideas of [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Claire[/name], and [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name]. :slight_smile:

I voted [name]Claire[/name] because:

  1. The length of [name]Abigail[/name] and your last name
  2. [name]Abby[/name] [name]Claire[/name] is really cute :slight_smile:

[name]Abigail[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name] or [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Claire[/name] would be lovely choices with a long surname.

I like [name]Tirtza[/name] simply bc it has meaning for your DH’s family! And since it sounds like you picked the fn, I think I’d give him the mn. Otherwise I also like [name]Helen[/name]. I’m tiring of [name]Claire[/name] as a mn, and it also has the same ai sound in it as [name]Abigail[/name], to my ears.

I voted before I read your post.

[name]Abby[/name] [name]Claire[/name] sounds best. [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Claire[/name], on the other hand, does not sound very good!

But [name]Abigail[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] and [name]Abby[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] both sound nice. So that’s my new vote.
