Joseph Matthew wouldn't be bad, but I don't like just Joey. Someday he'll outgrow Joey, and he'd probably appreciate it if it was Joseph instead, you know?
I don't like Aidan, but it could be a lot worse. I prefer Aidan with the -an ending. Aidan James and Aidan Matthew sound a lot better than Aidan Ray, though.
Holden James is nice, too.
I really like Megan, but I'm definitely not a fan of Luzanne. It looks like a cross between Lucy and Suzanne and it's...just, not good. Are you pronouncing Rachele like Rachel, or like Rosh-elle? I prefer Rachel, without the e. If you're pronouncing it like the latter, it needs to l's -- Rachelle -- otherwise it looks like a typo of Rachel.
What about Megan Rachel, or Megan Rachelle?
Jen by itself, like Joey, is just...not good. Rachelle/Rachel Jennifer wouldn't be bad, although I think there are a lot better middle names to go with it, but I definitely don't like Rachele Jen. It looks incomplete, and it doesn't even flow well.
James on a girl, even as a middle name, is AWFUL. Please, I beg of you...just don't do it.
I don't like Sequoia and Summer, but I prefer those to James on a girl SO MUCH.
What about Megan Sequoia? Or Megan Summer?
Summer Rayne is awful. I knew a girl in high school whose full name was Summer Dawn Day and EVERYONE made comments about it, all the time. I'd definitely stay away from that one. I don't like Summer Riley, either, but it's definitely better than Summer Rayne.
I'm going to agree with the comment above me about the name Rachele Jen, it seems incomplete. I like the names Summer and Rayne, Rayne is on of my favorites for a middle name, but I don't like Summer Rayne because summer rain is a thing. If that makes sense. Summer Riley doesn't flow very well either.
I like the Megan Sequoia suggestion above, it sounds and looks really good! I also agree on the Jen-is-too-short thing, but I disagree on Joey...if you like Joey as a name but not Joseph, you should just go along with it. Maybe in a few decades it'll be normal in the USA to give your kids shorter names. And if not...who cares? ;)
