[Opinions] Middle names for Grace
Thanks everyone who gave opinions on the Emily vs. Grace thing. I think Grace sounds better, giving it thought. Can anyone think of good middle names that go with Grace? I'm not to sure about "Grace Emily"...
It's sweet, pretty-but-simple names I'm looking for, like Grace, Emily and Amelia.btw, I'm not pregnant, just curious. ^^

I named my daughter GraceI named my daughter Grace Maighread, Grace after my Grandmother and Maighread for her Scottish heritage and my mother-in-law, Margaret who is called Maggie.She was going to be Emily Grace and I realized how popular Emily is/was. I considered Emilia Grace but settled for the unusual (in our city, at least..) Maighread. We call our little one Gracie but figure she has the opportunity to be conservative Grace, or unusual Maighread.x C

My fav. is Grace Alexandra (we'll be using it if we ever have a girl), but here are some others I also like:
Grace Isabella
Grace Victoria
Grace Elizabeth
Grace Katherine
Grace Caroline
With a short fn, the mn should definitely be on the longer side.

I think Grace makes a better middle name; it compliments nearly any fist name. I think it's harder to pair Grace up with a middle name, to make it flow. Nonetheless, I suggest:Grace Patricia
Grace Elizabeth
Grace Francesca
Grace Jeanine
Grace Vivianna

Thank you, those are great.I really like Grace Celeste, but I think it's a bit short. Does Grace Celesta sound odd? Yes, I've just realised it rhymes with molester. ;)Grace Isabelle is nice too - I would spell it Grace Isobel, though. That doesn't look as nice, but I can't stand to spell it any other way, don't ask me why.The other I like is Grace Annabelle, though, again, I would bring it down to Grace Annabel.What do you think of Grace Vivienne? (with stress on the "enne")

There is also Celestria, which is a mediaeval name.I like Isabelle/Isabel/Isobel equally it's just Isabelle is the one I'm used to spelling, it's habit.Same with Annabelle/Annabel.I like Grace Vivienne. There is also Grace Viviana.More (I'm on a roll here):
Grace Annora
Grace Ingrid
Grace Euphemia
Grace Ilaria
Grace Elodia
Grace Fiona
Grace Ileana
Grace Juliana
Grace Martha
Grace Melodia
Grace Penelope
Grace Virginia
Grace Mirabelle

Your lists are giving me more and more ideas. :)
Like, WDYTO:
Grace Juliet or Grace Elora? I like Grace Elodia, too. And Grace Viviana.Grace Celestria...quite nice...You're on the same thread as me...old-fashioned, sweet, simple-but-pretty kind of names are the ones I want. I'll go specify that in my first post.Grace Sabina?
Grace Eloise?The funny thing about "Isabelle" is that everyone on another forum I visit kept going on about it, and it didn't really appeal to me. I knew that recently I *had* liked the name Isabelle, so I couldn't work out why I suddenly disliked it so much. Then I saw it spelt "Isobel", and I suddenly liked it again. I'm extremely fussy about that, I suppose. ^^

I like Grace Juliet.Not too sure on Elora, there is something I don't like about Sabina that I can't quite put my finger on and Eloise I'm not sure about.I shall raid my favourites list once more:

Grace Audrey
Grace Bridget / Brigid / Brigit
Grace Caoimhe
Grace Catriona
Grace Edonea

My friend Grace's mn is Amelia, and I think that's a really pretty combo: Grace Amelia.

That would be perfect...only problem is, the older sister is called Amelia. ^^

Woops, sorry.

Doesn't that make it easier? You'd be using a combo you like & honouring a family member, what more could you want? My sister is Alexandra, thats one of the main reason we're using Grace Alexandra besides how much we love it.
