Hmm...I'm having trouble with some names. I really really like

Isabella
Zara
Zora

I loooove these as first names, but I can't think of any good middle names. I'm not sure that

Jane
Amanda
Beatriz

fit any of the first names. Can anyone help??

What about something like Zora Isabel (or Isabelle, if you prefer that spelling)?

Common misconception: Adding 'Z' to the end of a name will make it look 'cool' or 'unique'. Beatrix can be cute, as can Beatrice. Beatriz looks a little silly. I love Zora and Isabelle, any combination of the two would be lovely.

Beatriz is listed on behindthename.com as a Spanish form of Beatrice. So I figure it's legit (behindthename is the most reliable name site I've found).
Not all variants are just random creation, and there can be very good reasons behind the them.

Eh, I don't like it. Whether or not it has a website devoted to it or not, it still looks like a butchered version of Beatrice. I prefer Beatrix much more anyway, I dunno why, but it's so cute.

Isabella Jane is pretty :)
Zara Beatriz works too.

They're all very nice names.

Isabella Jane goes just fine.

I love Isabella and I think Jane goes well with it. I like short middle names with Isabella: Jaye, Faith, May, Dawn, Joan, Hope, Grace, Shae, Star, Fawn, Kate, Jean, Claire, Paige, Maeve, Rae. I also like Isabella Delaney.

I like Isabella a lot. I especially can't abide Amanda though. I like Jane as a middle name a lot if it fits with the name.. Amy Jane, Sara Jane..etc..
Isabella Jane is very pretty :-)

Some more suggestions:

Isabella Elise
Isabella Marie
Isabella Hope
Isabella Rose
