I want a family name for a middle name... but I don't like any of them!

[MommyMika]

My husband and I thought it would be really nice to have a family members name as a middle name... but the problem is we don't like ANY of them! (No offence to anyone if they like these names... they just don't suit our taste or our first name choices)

Our options are...

Harry
Harvey
Larry
Kenneth

Louise
Ethel
Ursela
Annie
Fransis

How about variations of those names?

Examples:

Annabelle
Louisa
Eloise
Kennedy

Kenny
Harrison
Henry

That is such a great idea!

Louise is a big one we wanted to name the baby after, and I like Louisa and Eloise much better!!

Any other suggestions??

I wanted a family name for DS's middle name, so I used my mums maiden name as his middle name. Worked out well and kindof honoured the whole family instead of just one person.

Ohh Francesca is pretty, as fairygem suggested!

Definitely use a variation! My middle name is Elaine, after my grandmother, who was Ellen. I liked that my name honoured hers but I also liked that it was my 'own' name as well, iykwim

Our LO is called Eloïse and we get so many positive comments, about it being pretty but unusual.
