Ok here's the deal my fiance really likes Freya as a middle name. I'm okay with it if we can find a first name that goes perfectly with it.
Origianlly we agreed on Eleanor Freya but now my love for Eleanor is waning.

Last night I just kept listing names in the hopes that something would jump out at us. No dice. He kind of liked Sidra Freya. He liked Lila Freya but not Lila on it's own as a first name. He nixed Violet, Adelaide, Abigail, Lily, Sophie.

So what goes well with Freya? Help me out!

Fiance thinks a two syllable first name would go best.
It's a plus if it's a Hebrew name, but it doesn't have to be, especially since fiance doesn't care for most Hebrew girl's names (although he does like Chaya Freya and I had to explain that I thought that was too matchy).

I'll list some other name combos we like so you can see our style:
Mia Simone (I want this for a second daughter though, that's why we're trying to find a first name for Freya)
Asher Everett
Caleb Uriah

I do like Jordan, it might be a bit boyish for my fiance (and I don't like Jordana), I like Danielle but fiance has a cousin Daniel so it's out. I like Rachel too but I already know fiance doesn't (so picky!)

Yeah I don't know what to do. I like "classic" names for girls but I don't know if they go with Freya since it's more earthy.

isnt it more feminine if its spelled with a y? (jordyn?) I have a family friend whose niece is named jordyn

See the problem with Eleanor or really any name I start out really really liking is that I think about and think about it and say it over and over in my head til I start to pick it apart...hmmm Eleanor begins with Ellen (soundwise) yuck and it ends with a weird Nor sound, what's up with that?
You see and so I pick it apart until I don't like it anymore.

I actually like Coraline better than Caroline (can you tell I'm a Neil Gaiman fan)
I'm not sure I've mentioned that one to my fiance yet, I'll try it.

I have to say Sidra Freya sounds really catchy!
I didn't like Eleanor paired with Freya at all, like I remember telling you.
I don't mind Eleanor but it really had nothing to do with Freya.
Sidra is a lot more on the same wavelength, it recalls cyder, but that not's all too off with Freya.

My suggestions
Arlen Freya
Devra Freya
Morgan Freya
Alyssa Freya
Vivianne Freya
Anita Freya

hope you like !

Looking over Hebrew girls names...

Ilana Freya
Lilith Freya... those are two names of goddesses, so you might not like that
Madeline Freya

I dont know many Hebrew names - however, Freya is norse - i'm not sure if you were looking for Hebrew first and middle names or not....

it's very difficult to find names that sound good with freya, these are the only ones that i came up with:
josephine freya
abigail freya
libby freya
marilyn freya
adrien freya

i really like mia simone...why not use it for your first daughter?
