🐚 Which middle name works best?

Potential Names

[name_f][/name_f]

Two name combos are set in this sibset of 2 girls and 1 boy, but one I’m debating. [name_f][/name_f] Please help with constructive criticism and opinions. [name_f][/name_f] Names are honor names, but the best way to apply those honors eludes me on this third name.

[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f][/name_f]Αlᴀnɪ[name_f][/name_f]

The first name may change in the future, but is not an honor name. [name_f][/name_f] For now, please do not criticize my choice here as it does hold significance for me.

[name_f][/name_f][name_f][/name_f]1st Middle Name[name_f][/name_f]

The first middle name will honor Mɪchᴀɛl Lɛwɪs[name_f][/name_f].

[name_f][/name_f]

I’ve considered [name_f]Milou[/name_f] and [name_f]Lumi[/name_f], but I’m looking for more possibilities. Using parts of both names isn’t necessary, but I would like to keep the name short and only 1-2 syllables.

[name_f][/name_f][name_f][/name_f]2nd Middle Name[name_f][/name_f]

The second middle name will honor Mᴀrcɛllᴀ Mᴀrthᴀ[name_f][/name_f].

[name_f][/name_f]

I set on using [name_f]Mar[/name_f], [name_m]Mars[/name_m], [name_f]Marce[/name_f], [name_m]Marcel[/name_m], [name_f]Marcella[/name_f] or [name_f]Marcelle[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] top choices are [name_f]Mar[/name_f] and [name_m]Mars[/name_m], but I’m interested in other possibilities (yet again). Again, I want to keep it short and 1-2 syllables.

[name_f][/name_f]

Note 1: Personally I like 1 syllable for this one, but I hesitate to run with it for some reason despite being dead set on using it in the past.

[name_f][/name_f]

Note 2: In the past I was set on using [name_f]Mattea[/name_f] in place of [name_f]Martha[/name_f], but I love the name for other reasons now. [name_f][/name_f] I’ve also come to love [name_f]Marcella[/name_f] and it’s variants since then, so I would like to use one if possible.

I love Milou as a way to honour ML I think she’s so sweet and unexpected.

Other ideas to honour ML

Melia
Magdalena
Millicent
Manuela
Mallory
Milani

So I choose a M name with a strong L sound to honour them. Hopefully some of these work.

I think Mars is fab! Something like Αlᴀnɪ Melia Mars would be fun or Αlᴀnɪ Mallory Mars.

My first idea to honour MM was Mara I think Mara would be very sweet. Alternatively names that feature a double M could work.

Clemmie
Maximiliana
Emma
Emmeline
Summer

Maybe Αlᴀnɪ Magdalena Emma?

Hope this helps

Thank you all for the help! I’m looking through each name and sitting here considering each name, letting them marinate in my combos to see how much I like them if I name children on my own. I’m putting them all on my list for the possibility of naming children with a significant other (see what each of us can agree on).

Also, thank you for the sentiment you have expressed towards some of my ideas… it has definitely helped me see some of these ideas through fresh eyes.

I appreciate the assistance and the ideas that had escaped me previously!
