We don’t know what we’re having, but we’re naming the baby [name]Quinn[/name] no matter what. (It’s my maiden name.) But we’re having a hard time coming up with a middle name for baby Q.
Can you help? We need both boy and girl middle name suggestions and nothing too common like [name]Marie[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]James[/name], [name]Michael[/name] etc . . . Thanks!
Middle names for one-sylabble first names are the hardest I think.
I do like:
[name]Quinn[/name] [name]Catherine[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]
and for boys
[name]Quinn[/name] [name]Christopher[/name]
but am not sure if these are too common for you.
[name]LOVE[/name] the name [name]Quinn[/name] though!
[name]Hi[/name]! I love [name]Quinn[/name]! [name]How[/name] cool that it’s your maiden name. For a female [name]Quinn[/name], I’d personally just avoid common royal middle names, because to me, something like [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] sounds like “[name]Queen[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name].”
Great suggestions so far! Keep them coming! I can’t wait to go over this list with my husband tonight.
[name]Jill[/name], I agree with you about the [name]Quinn[/name]/[name]Queen[/name] thing. I love the name [name]Adelaide[/name], but all I keep hearing is [name]Queen[/name] [name]Adelaide[/name] instead of [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Adelaide[/name].
I love, love [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Rafferty[/name]. Thanks!
Talk about putting the cart before the horse, but what sibling names do you see with [name]Quinn[/name]? Thanks!
I really like the flow of [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] or [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]. Are there any family names, or your own family names that might work in the middle name position?
You’ve got some great middle name suggestions, so I’ll think of some future siblings:
Boys:
[name]Rafferty[/name] (not if you use for baby Q’s middle of course, but I think they make nice brothers)
[name]Roarke[/name]
[name]Ross[/name]
[name]Donovan[/name]
[name]Brennan[/name]
[name]Teague[/name]
If I were you why not look back into your family trees alittle bit? You might find some more names you can use? Like my grandma’s maiden name was [name]Ryan[/name] so we are going to use that. If you have a cool name you can use it either way.
We have lots of Irishy names on my side
[name]Ryan[/name]
[name]Reilly[/name]
[name]Spencer[/name]
[name]Connor[/name]
[name]Finley[/name]
([name]Ryan[/name] won cause it’s the most "normal"by hubby)
