I'm a fan of short one syllable middle names. Just curious what short middle names other bees used - both for boys and girls! We have several first name ideas both ways, but now starting to wonder what will go with them for the middle!
-
My kids don't have one syllable middle names but mine is Faye and I love it!
-
Leigh, Lee
Lynn
Ann
Kate
Scott
John, Jon
-
Don't laugh, but mine is May, my mom is Kay, DH's is Jay, SIL is Faye, MIL is Kaye. Our LO's is Kay too. Oh, and my sister's is Sue.
-
LO's middle name is Mats after his (swedish) great grandfather.
-
S' middle name is Rose.
-
@MaisyMay: that is amazing.
I also like one syllable middles. Faves are faye Leigh and Scott (all already mentioned...me = lame )
-
B's middle name is Paul.
-
Thanks for ideas and keep them coming! Sitting here reading them to DH to get yay or nays lol
-
Kaye (it's mine
)
-
DS' middle name is Dean
-
Our babes middle will be Bayne or John. Mine is jane and we would have probably used that if we were having a girl!
-
I tend to like one syllable middle names, though family names trump. LO's middle name is Jeanne (pronounced Jean) but a future female LO would likely have the middle name Pamela.
I love Mae and June as middle names.
-
Girls: Lynn, Jane, Jean, Kate, Grace, Rose
Boys: James, Cole, Paul, Scott, Mark, Luke
-
Paige, Claire
James, Jase, Cole
-
My moms, mine and DD middle names are ann.
-
My LO's middle name is Mae and my husband's middle name is Keith. My mn has two syllables.
-
Lyn and Jane are in our family.
-
LO is Reese and my mn is Kate
-
Mae and Shai (means gift in Hebrew) are my kids middle names!
-
DD's is Lynn. I didn't pick it but we compromised
-
Our daughter's middle is Bea.
-
I like single syllable middle names too!
I wanted June for LO middle name, but DH wanted his mother's name, so we went with that.
For a boy, I'd love to use my dad's middle name - Clark.
-
I also really like my brother's middle name- Blake.
-
I like single syllable middle names too. For girls I like Grace, May, June, and Joy. For boys I like Dean and Brent.
-
LO's middle name is Rose.
-
@Mrs. Confetti: Funny, right? Once DH and I realized how funny it sounds when we put them all out there, we decided that of course our kids will all have single syllable middle names that end in -ay(e). It works for us.
-
R's is Claire
-
We went with Ann since her first name has 4 syllables!
-
Not technically one syllable, but my favorite girls' middle names are Agnes and Lucy-they're both short and sweet!
For a boy, I like John as a one syllable name.
-
June is our top contender for middle name right now. I also like Jane, Rose, Claire, and Grace.
-
Boy: Van, Gray, Jon
Girl: Rae (like Ray), Gray, June -
Great ideas guys - thanks!
@PEAPIE: wooo gray, hadn't thought of that!
@Smurfette: @Mae: Claire is a good one!
@rahlyrah: we love Blake and wanted it as first name but it's my step-nephews name. Might work for middle name though!
@stine_ciro: Clark is good, I have a thing for names that are commonly last names
@lawbee11: these are all good!
@rachiecakes: ooo paige
-
Lo's is Scott...
-
DD's middle name is similar to June and is her great grandmother's maiden name.
I like short middle names, especially with longer first names. -
V's middle is Wren.

My daughter's middle name is Ray and I love it. Short and sweet.
