Suggestions for a middle name for Annelies

Preggi with #3 here, due in 2 days! [name_u]Baby[/name_u] is a surprise and DH & I are still coming to an agreement on another baby girl name, we have 2 girls already so this is getting tricky!

Desperately need some help to find a middle name for Annelies otherwise he will insist on going with another name that I don’t 100% like.

We have a long surname so looking for something short and sweet (preferably one or two syllables), our theme so far for the kids have been Dutch or Gaelic/Irish names but at this stage I’m starting to consider anything… any suggestions?

Honestly I think you should reevaluate your choice. When I see/hear Annelies I think of 1) Anal, & 2) [name_f]Anne[/name_f] Lies.

That said, maybe a shorter J name or something would pair best as a middle? [name_f]Jana[/name_f], [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Juno[/name_f], [name_f]Junia[/name_f], [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Jeanette[/name_f]?

Thanks for those suggestions. I think you may be pronouncing it wrong - it sounds nothing like anal or anne lies.

Okay maybe its more what I think of when I see it written.

I do know how to pronounce it.
