[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries! DH and I have decided on [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] for our second daughter - the first one is called [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]. But right now, we are stuck on middle names. Here our current list:
As the mother of a [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] myself, of course that’s my favorite! But with sister [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], I think I prefer [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f]. Botanical middles are a sweet connection. ([name_f]Acacia[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], and [name_f]Rose[/name_f] would also work in that regard, but [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] has more of the wow factor that [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] has.)
All so pretty! [name_f]Rose[/name_f] sounds so lovely but it’s a bit common. I would stick with the botanical middle. I like them all but I think I prefer [name_f]Ivy[/name_f].
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] and [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] are both so beautiful! [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] gets a slight boost from me for being a bontanical name like big sis.
My favorite is [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], followed by [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f].
