thellamaqueen.livejournal.comMy husband and I were talking yesterday and we realized that we both really want to use the name Betsy somehow if we ever have a daughter/daughters, to honor our two favorite aunts who are both named Betsy.
The problem is that we've had a first and middle name combination picked out for a girl for a very long time, and we're both pretty attached to it (Zia Violet is the name).
It's important to us that we pass on the name "Betsy", but it's also important to us that we like the sound of the names we give our children... so we're kind of stuck. We're trying to come up with a different first name that works with Betsy as a middle name. We've basically decided that in the event that we have two daughters, we'll pass on "Betsy" to the second daughter.
So my question to you all is...
What are some first names that sound good with "Betsy" as a middle name?
We like names that are somewhat unique... We don't want our children to share their first names with a ton of other children in their classes at school, basically. We are also geared towards biblical names (the boys' names we both like are Caleb [middle name Theodore-Charles], Gideon [middle name James], and Jude [middle name Kenneth] and our first boy will be named Caleb Theodore-Charles no matter what, if that helps).
ETA: We can't use the name Elizabeth. Aside from the fact that we both just don't like it, my husband has a nasty ex-girlfriend by that name!
