A while ago I posted about a "dirty south" middle name for my little girl and I got a few good ideas, though this suggestion came from both my mom and my aunt. At first, I didn't like it but I think it might be growing on me...

Stella Beale [as in the Memphis street] Trenholm

Y/N?

I don't like it on its own, but together I love it.

I like it, actually. Neither of the names are ones I would actually use myself, but I think it really captures what you're going for. I like that Beale sounds as though it could be the surname of someone you're honouring.

I love it! I like the meaning but how it's not in your face.

It sounds more like a last name. I don't care for it. It does flow well, though.

Hard to Say

The vowel sounds are hard to say from the first name to the last-- although maybe less so with a southern accent: eh/ee/eh. You have to concentrate really hard.
