    middle name for Mary-beth...... does it even need one?

    Ok, thought I had a month to work this out, now bub will be born at 36wks (next week!)
    I love Mary-beth but can't think of middle name, surname is w y l I e
    I wouldn't mind something that meant twin (eldest) or little one or early.....

    Help

    Almost thinking no middle name is necessary but I'd have hated not to have a middle name, and bubs elder sister is jemima Alice

    Can't be
    Hannah Louise Emma rose mia grace or jemima Alice
    All taken

    Can she be Mary Beth (Beth as the middle name)? Up until the age of about 10 everyone used to call me by my first and second name. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have one.
    Good luck!!!!

    Mary-beth Dawn sounds OK.

    Would your maiden name work?

    My husband has his mum's maiden name for a middle name (Beck) , as does a friend (Caplen) as does my neice (Cunningham).

    For some reason Mary-Beth Elise popped into my head when I read this but then I saw you have Jemima Alice... Elise and Alice are quite similar so not sure if that's something you'd want or not??

    I think you could get away with not even having one. It is such a pretty name I think on its own IMHO

    I think Tavia is such a pretty, unusual, but not too out there name. Aurora too.

    Mary-Beth Dawn goes nicely.

    My ex hubby and his twin were child 5 and 6 of the family and their parents didn't give them middle names but all the rest had middle names, so u think I've convinced myself its necessary as jemima has one.
    So hubby has actually decided on my middle name!! Which is Cherie!
    Very cool coz if its a boy its getting his middle name (which is also the name of my brain surgery last year)

    I tried for Anne though to, he reckons it doesn't flow........ but he has not had one suggestion for this kid at all.
