Which middle name idea should go in between Genevieve and Jane?

I like the idea of both Genevieve and Jane but the flow just doesn't seem quite right to me.. what if there was a third name in between them to complete the flow? My sister-in-law likes Genevieve Elicia Jane *prenounced Elise-See-ah* for instance, thoughts on that or other ideas? Please and thank you and have a good day :)

Maybe this is a littel obvious, but how about:

Genevieve Suzanna Jane / Genevieve Susannah Jane
Genevieve Suellen Jane / Genevieve Sue-Ellen Jane
Genevieve Sanna Jane / Genevieve Suzie Jane

Others:

Genevieve Olivia Jane
Genevieve Zenovia Jane
Genevieve Laverna Jane
Genevieve Lavinia Jane
Genevieve Zinnia Jane
Genevieve Eliza Jane

Elicia flows well, but looks a little odd to me. It's like combining Alicia and Elysia.
Genevieve Elysia Jane would be great too :)

I’m not a big fan of Elicia tbh — where I’m from it’s pronounced exactly like Alicia and would be frequently misspelled.

Some options I like:

Genevieve Allison Jane
Genevieve Alicia Jane (this cuts down on the misspelling problem)
Genevieve Eleanor Jane
Genevieve Ursula Jane
Genevieve Kathleen Jane
Genevieve Heloïse Jane
Genevieve Anaïs Jane

Oh it's not a misspelling, it's prenounced ē-lease-see-ah, not Alicia. :)
How would you suggest the spelling be then?
I love Ursula btw, especially as a middle but unfortunately in times past hubby gave it a hard no for Little Mermaid reason lol
All good ideas

I didn’t realize it was supposed to be pronounced differently than Alicia. I would stick with the original spelling, Elicia—it makes as much sense as any. It’s a nice name, although hard for me to pronounce (/s/ sounds are not my friend). Most folks won’t have this problem, though. If you love it, use it.
