Adrienne or Adrianne

Which spelling do you prefer?

Also, I'm having trouble deciding on a middle name. Here are some I'm considering:

Jane
Jade
Gale
Gwen
Sidney
Autumn
Erica
Blair
Reagan
Skye
Nicole
Isabelle
Sophia
Iris
Isis

Any feedback, suggestions, etc. would be great.

Adrienne, because to me that's pronounced the feminine way whereas Adrianne would be pronounced like the boy's name Adrian. =)

I like Adrienne Iris, Adrienne Sophia, Adrienne Jane, and Adrienne Erica.

I think Adrienne will get the pronunciation you're after.

Reagan indicates a political leaning. If you don't want that, try the Shakespearean spelling Regan.

I always think of Blair as a boy's name because I went to school with one. Brody definitely seems like a boy's name to me.

I prefer Jane as a middle name with a more unusual first name.

Isis may hit a slight bump in popularity--there was a recent ANTM contestant with that name.

I much prefer Adrienne. Adrianne looks like it should be pronounced Adri-ANNE. Also, there's an actor named Adrien Brody, so using Brody as a middle name is probably a bad idea. I like a lot of your other middle names though, especially Blair, Sophia, and Iris.

I also like:
Adrienne Cassandra
Adrienne Cordelia
Adrienne Delilah
Adrienne Ilse
Adrienne Kylie
Adrienne Madeline
Adrienne Magnolia
Adrienne Maisie
Adrienne Olivia
Adrienne Pamela
Adrienne Rachel

I like Adrienne much better. Somehow it seems more feminine.

I think Adrienne Sophia & Adrienne Iris are really pretty!

Adrienne Brooke
Adrienne Leah
Adrienne Helena
Adrienne Julia
Adrienne Laura

I think both are pretty, but I like Adrienne just a little bit more, it looks more feminine to me.

For middle names, I like Jade, Gwen, Sophia and Iris.

Adrienne or Adriana.
I consider Adrianne to be mispelled.

Adrienne Jade is lovely :)

Adrienne. Adrianne looks too much like two names mushed together.

Adrienne Jane
Adrienne Blair
Adrienne Nicole
Adrienne Isabelle
Adrienne Sophia

I think Adrienne looks nicer than Adrianne (makes me want to enunciate "Anne")

I think Adrienne Sophia has the prettiest flow, just make sure the last name doesn't begin with S as well. Adrienne Jade, Iris or Nicole would also work nicely

Adrienne. I hate Adrianne. I had relatives who used to pronounce my name that way, and it bugged me.

Adrienne is the better of the two. I knew an Adrienne in grade school who was in the class above me. Unfortunately, there was also a boy in her class named Adrian who pronounced his name the same way, so all of their teachers differentiated between the 2 by referring to Adrienne as "Adrianne" with emphasis on the "anne." She hated it!

I like
Adrienne Gale (or Gail)
Adrienne Blair
Adrienne Nicole
Adrienne Sophia
