Middle name help
As always I'm struggling to find a middle name that sounds good. I'm writing a story where my female character's name is Lennox, which I know is a boy's name. Anyways, I can't find the right middle name to pair it with that flows nicely. I'd like a more feminine sounding name to go against the masculine Lennox. So far I have been toying with Lennox Anne and Lennox Eve but neither one of them are really doing it for me. Any ideas?http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/139762

Lennox Dolores. Any female would feel miserable with a name like Lennox!

Well, I wouldn't subject a real girl to Lennox! It's a story I'm writing where names like that are pretty common. Harry Potter has soured me to Dolores and I think it sounds so frumpy! Since Lennox is such a masculine name, I was trying to find a light, airy kind of name to pretty it up a bit. I think I might go with Fleur. But thank you!

I like Lennox Anne because it reminds me of Mary Lennox and Anne of Green Gables.
Lennox Eve seems to have too many "unusual" letters in it (x and z). When those letters show up a lot they make the name seem almost "sci fi". But it's obvious from the names themselves that they're not supposed to feel that way. Lennox Rose
Lennox Elaine
Lennox Jane
Lennox Violet
Lennox Eleanor
Lennox Isabel
Lennox Isabella
Lennox Isolde
Lennox Helen
Lennox Catherine

Well the story I'm writing is a little fanasty but Eve doesn't flow as well I don't think. Eleanor is great, one of my favorite names! Thanks for the suggestions!

Lennox June is nice, I like that a lot! I also really like Lennox Eloise! I was considering Lennox Elise, but Eloise is much nicer!

No to Lennox Annehttp://www.annielennox.com
Especially as she was once rumored to be male

I like Lennox Nora. She'll likely go by Nox and I like Nox Nora. Thanks!

I immediately thought Lennox Amandine. Not sure why, as I've never entertained Amandine before. But I can't get it out of my head, so there you go.

Oh Amandine is nice. I think it's a bit of a mouthful but I like it! Thanks!
