    I think it sounds best with a first name that doesn't end with an A sound.

    Charlotte Anna
    Dorothy Anna
    Gillian Anna
    Isabelle Anna
    Jane Anna
    June Anna
    Katherine Anna
    Margaret Anna
    Persephone Anna

    Tahli is a nice alternative!! But I also think Tahlia sounds fine. Maybe you've said it too many times and it's starting to sound odd!! But I know if you're not happy there's no point using the name, but from another point of view, I think it sounds good! xo

    I also love Tahlia- and agree that Tahli/Tahlie is a sweet alternative. Otherwise, you could perhaps consider Tahlia Anne, instead of Anna? That way you are still using the name, but a slightly modified form.
    I just don't think it is worth compromising on a first name you both like, for the sake of a middle name. They only appear on legal documents, afterall, and are hardly verbalised in everyday life.
    Otherwise, some suggestions for you;

    Arielle Anna (If you don't mind 2 'a' names)
    Shanelle Anna
    Jenae Anna
    Jacelyn Anna (Jay-se-lyn)
    Mahlie Anna (Like Tahlie!)
    Madeley Anna
    Shaylie Anna
    Shiane Anna
    Tamsyn/Tamsin Anna
    Tamlyn Anna
    Taelyn Anna

    I threw a few T names in there incase you like them.....

    I have such a huge girls name list, but I didn't realise how many ended with an 'ay' or 'uh' sound until I did this post!

    My #3 is called Cari-Anna (as in CARi not Carrie)
    My name is Mary-Anne, my mum's is Anne and we wanted to incorporate that into it with a modern twist. The Cari comes from Mum's aunt Corrie and deceased brother Ari.
    BTW, her middle name is Josephine.

    I know your dilemma! When DD was growing we liked Maeve but her surname begins with F so it sounded like "may" when you ran them together and i used to have a horse called may (who was sweet but i wouldn't name a kid after her!). We ended up calling her something totally different.

    I like Tahli Anna, but does it have to be a middle name? How about Tahlianna? Like Marianna?

    I like names with a balanced flow, so if a middle name has 2 syllables i like 1 or 3 for the first name. My DD's rhythm is 2, 3, 1.
