**Sister for Sophia Adele**

Hello everyone! My husband and I are adopting a baby girl. We are SO thrilled and blessed and can’t wait for her to arrive. Our first daughter is [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Adele[/name]. [name]Sophia[/name] is a name we both loved because of the meaning. We have never met another [name]Sophia[/name] (shocking with it being #1) but popularity doesn’t bother us at all. We choose [name]Adele[/name] as her middle name which is after my grandmother who I am very close to. We love [name]Sophia[/name]'s name…soft and sweet, has a history to it and a great meaning. For our new baby girl we are hoping for something similar. My husband loves [name]Isabella[/name] (he has wanted to use it for years) with the middle name [name]Rose[/name] after my mother. I love the name…it is gorgeous…but it feels “filler” to me even though it isn’t. We have thought of a different “rose” name…[name]Rosalie[/name], [name]Rosemary[/name]…but we both like the simplicity of [name]Rose[/name] better. Since we both love [name]Isabella[/name] I am looking for a different middle name with the same family meaning as [name]Adele[/name]. I really want to use [name]Vivienne[/name] as the middle in honor of my mother. [name]Vivian[/name] was her name but her favorite name was [name]Rose[/name]. She always said she hoped that we would use [name]Rose[/name] if we had a daughter someday. Unfortunately, my sweet mom when to [name]Heaven[/name] a few years ago so it is very important to honor her. So…do we choose [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] or [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Vivienne[/name]/[name]Vivian[/name]??? Really, I love them both, both have so much meaning, both beautiful to us… Ugh, so hard! Thanks so much for your thoughts! Cheers!
ps…[name]Vivian[/name] is also a family name…that is why we are considering the spelling [name]Vivienne[/name]. She would be the only one in our family spelt that way…if that even matters! :slight_smile:

I think [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is just great with [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Adele[/name].

Does she have a birth name? If so I’d advise to use it in some manner.

I would choose [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name]! That way you honor everyone plus have an incredibly beautiful name. If you are absolutely set on [name]Isabella[/name], then I would go with [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name].

I love [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name], I don’t think it’s a filler if there’s meaning behind it.

If [name]Rose[/name] has some family significance, I would not define it as a “filler” middle name. [name]Isabella[/name] is a “natural” fit with a sister named [name]Sophia[/name]. The other “[name]Rose[/name]” names are kind of long so I think [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] would be lovely.

I too would chose [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name]. Otherwise both your [name]Isabella[/name] combos are beautiful.

[name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is a gorgeous name! [name]Rose[/name] can be a filler name but I have always felt it was the perfect middle name for [name]Isabella[/name].

I agree with pp, [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is beautiful and would honor everyone while fitting perfectly with [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Adele[/name]. However if you want to use [name]Isabella[/name] definitely go with [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Rose[/name] it flows nicely and complements [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Adele[/name]

[name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is gorgeous. Much more than other [name]Rose[/name] names. [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name] would be gorgeous as well. I agree that if a name has meaning it isn’t a filler mn, even though it may be that for others. Our first is [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Rose[/name] and [name]Rose[/name] was my husband’s grandmother’s name.

[name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name], I like that your mom wanted you to use [name]Rose[/name]… Great story to tell her someday!

I agree, [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is beautiful. I also love the sound of [name]Rose[/name] [name]Isabella[/name] or [name]Rose[/name] [name]Isabelle[/name]. [name]Even[/name] though [name]Rose[/name] has meaning for you, it DOES sound like filler. But, it is so unexpected and lovely as a first name.

Good luck and congratulations!

I agree. I love that your mother loved [name]Rose[/name] so much. Great gesture for your mother. I like the simplicity of [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name]. [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Vivienne[/name] is a lot of name, but it too would be beautiful and meaningful. Still I think if you could ask your mother she’d tell you to pick [name]Rose[/name]. That’s what I would go with.

[name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name], [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Rose[/name], and [name]Isabella[/name] [name]Vivienne[/name] are all beautiful.

[name]Isabella[/name] [name]Rose[/name] is stunning!
