Middle names

[biancasablancas.livejournal.com]

I've tried on all the obvious ones (Rose, Grace, Claire, June, etc).

1) Middle name suggestions for Adeline ('line' prn like clothesline ha)

2) Opinions on Carmen? I attended a funeral today for one of the most beautiful women I have ever known called Carmel, but I prefer Carmen. I love the opera, and I love the fact that it has the sound "calm" in it. It's just a smooth name IMO.

Merci!

That's not at all how you would split the syllables in English. The way you have it split has us saying "Mah-dee-lih-knee."

then how do you split them?
because I know Sara, Anna, Eva are two syllables, so that would match how they're split in italian.

You've split Madeline into four syllables. It's only 3. So it should be Mad/e/line if you'd just using the letters there.
