DH and I have narrowed down our name list to five names. Three of them are complete first/middle combos. Two of them are missing middle names.
Serenity and Reverie.
DH gave me the green light to post these on HB and ask for help. 
Our last name is Hendricksen. I think both of these need one syllable middle names, but we're open to other options.
Any ideas?

I agree about one syllable middle names! I like Mae, Jane, June, Lee...I think something short and cute would be nice since the first and last names are long.

Reed
Lark
Wren
Fawn
Dawn
Rose
Rain
Jade

These are all the one syllable name I can think of that appeal to me right off the top of my head, but do you guys think any of them work well?
Claire
Fern
Day
Lark
Air
Eve
Sage
Gray
True
Wren
Dawn
Jade

I think Reverie True works great! I like Serenity Gray and Serenity Lark.

I think Reverie Sage is pretty! Especially when you think about the meanings of the words.

i'm a huge fan of the name claire -- i think it's so classic and pretty. i think it goes nicely with both names too.

I think Serenity Claire is beautiful. From your list, I'm not instantly in love with any of them with Reverie, except maybe Reverie Sage or Dawn.

I'm currently liking Reverie Jade and Serenity Dawn or Serenity Gray. I think. Maybe?

@Arden: I've got a thing for Gray right now too, so that's my vote with Serenity. I'd also vote for Reverie Lark. Claire is a nice balance to either.

Other ideas:
March (I dig the Little Women connection)
Scout
Spring/Snow (I can't remember your due date)
Plum
Rain (Though Serenity Rain sounds a bit like a candle fragrance or something...)
Blythe
Dove
Bow
Paige

@Arden: I know you said you like one syllable but I love the middle name Elise with Serenity.

I like Reverie Boheme or Shalom. I think Serenity Dawn is really pretty.

Serenity Grey is gorgeous!! I love it. I love the name Serene/Serena/Serenity. So beautiful.
Not as big a fan of Reverie - I think between Isla, Serenity and Reverie I'd go with one of the first two.
