Hmm, Felicia is not my favorite...if you go with it though I agree with other posters that you switch the ending of the middle name. Maybe Karoline/Karolyn? My mom's name is Carol and she always hated it (and goes by a nick name) but if I ever have a daughter I want to honor her, so have been thinking of using Caroline as the middle name. I also know a woman named Karlin, and I think thats cute.
I really like Fiona and Cecilia that have already been mentioned.
How about Cosette(from Les Misérables) or Amalia?

What about Felicity?

@photojane: RHOA NeNe Leake's spinoff gave the diss phrase a new life. Nene had two warring bridesmaids and "Bye Felicia" was heard around the world again. Nene's mom at one point asked, "who's Felicia?" LOL

I don't think it fits with your Other kids name. I love the suggestion of Elodie!

I don't really like Felicia, but I think that's just because a knew a couple of Felicia's in high school and they weren't nice girls! I don't think it really matches with Drake and Juliet.

I had a cat named Felicia. I've never heard of Bye, Felicia though!
I much prefer Felicity!

Is Karlina as a first name out? I think it's pretty.
Not a fan of Felicia for the same reason as previously mentioned unfortunately.
Names that have a similar vibe to me: Linnea, Leandra, Aurora, Samara, Thalia, Elisha

I've never heard of Bye, Felicia.... maybe it's not a thing in Canada. Or I'm old.
My name is Alicia, and I hate that it sounds like a lot of other names when people hear it. I'm constantly overhearing people come into my office saying "Hi, I'm here to see Alyssa/Alisa/Lisa/Felicia" and playing a guessing game with my receptionist. I feel like Felicia falls into that category as well.

What about Karlina for the first name? It has meaning and I think Karlina Rose sounds pretty.
Or
Karlina Lynn
Karlina Jane
Karlina Rayne
Karlina Elizabeth

@Mrs. Chocolate: I'll tell you from experience that almost no one mentions Calista Flockhart when they hear that name. It might help that my name is spelled differently but I honestly have never really had comments on that. Also, I always get comments on it being a beautiful name.

What about the traditional Greek spelling of Kallista? Would that change his associations with the name?

I think of "Bye, Felicia." Boo! Love the suggestions of Cordelia and Vivian. I think both would go really well with your kids' names! Or Karlina as a first name!

I like the name Felicia- I don't think Bye, Felicia will last lonng enough to make an impact- but paired with Karlina I'm not a huge fan. I love Vivian Karlina though and think it goes very well with Drake and Juliet.

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: that happened at my work a little while ago. One of my coworkers was complaining about someone and said, "Bye, Felicia." And then another coworker was like, "wait, who the hell is Felicia? I didn't know we hired someone." Hahaha!

@Mrs. Chocolate: if you like Elodie, how do you feel about Eloise or Elise? I think all three are very pretty and sound nice with your other LOs names. Or Francine -- starts with an 'F' and has the pretty French vibe of Juliet. And franny or Francie are adorable NNs

I have no idea what bye, Felicia is!
I've only ever known 1 person with that name and she is in her 40s now. I like it!

@mfa_lady: @cookiemomster: I love Vivienne It is high on my list and if ym DH would budge on it it would be it. I had it picked shortly after my daughter was born. I love it. I wish he did

I had dinner with friends over the weekend and i fell in love with their friends name.... Jeneva (Jen-eh-va) I guess you could also spell in Geneva

I wish i didn't think of bye, Felicia, it's a great name.
My oldest daughter is Lavinia. It's similar in style to Vivienne and Juliet I think. It's also a Shakespeare name, though a more tragic character.
Juliet is on our short list for number three.

I like it, i don't know what Bye Felicia is, I've never heard of it. I don't' know if I'm a fan of the flow of the first + middle name though? It doesn't flow off the tongue.
