The babys father and I really like the name Braelyn. But its sort of a complicated name to find a middle one for. And his last name is 9 letters long and starts with "Mc". So possibly a simple and short middle name... So any ideas?

We have :

Braelyn Rae
Braelyn Faye 
Braelyn Jane

Of your choices, I think the best is Braelyn Jane. Although to be honest, I don't care for the double long A sound in any of your name combos - BRAYYYY-LYN RAYYYY - too repetitive.

Braelyn Eve
Braelyn Hope
Braelyn Joy
Braelyn Ruth

Braelyn Louisa
Braelyn Delilah
Braelyn Fiona

I don't like the rhythm of 2 syllable first and middle names together, but it's personal preference. I think it sounds best with a one syllable name that doesn't have a long A sound, or a 3 syllable name ending in A. Good luck.

Wow, not really fond of Braelyn. It looks really trendy to me, and I think this -lyn trend is going to pass soon. But if you are dead set on using it, I would stick with a classic middle name.

Braelyn Elizabeth
Braelyn Catherine
Braelyn Cecilia
Braelyn Sarah, etc

The best you've listed is *definitely* Braelyn Jane.

my boyfriend's cousin has a daughter named Braelyn Chay... I'm not a fan of it though.

Sorry, but Braelyn is terrible and tacky, especially with the back-up nasal yay sounds of the middle name.

Jane is classic. Stick with that and find another name to go with it.
