Rose is so beautiful, I love it as a first and as a middle name. It depends on the combo. Hannah Rose or Ella Rose are boring and overdone, but Philippa Rose or Lucia Rose (any name that is not super common paired with it) are nice.

Honestly, many of the names you use in your combos are filler middle names, in my opinion. I love May, but it is definitely a filler middle name. So are Brooke, Elizabeth, Jade and Skye. Jade is actually really common as a middle name for the newer generations.

I find these really common:

I don't know if filler is the right word for the boys middle names. I feel that these are incredibly common but that they are still often named after their fathers or family members. For girls this happens too but I feel that for girls they are more likely just to be chosen for their sound.
