Middle name suggestions for Eve? The boyfriend and I love it but we've come to realize that it might not have much potential as a first name because we can't find anything to pair with it.

Edit: To get a sense of our style, some of our favorite girl's names are Isadora, Claire, Leah, Juliet, and Shiloh =)

It depends on the style of middle name you're going for...

For some reason, the first thing that popped up in my head was Eve Lorraine. I think any two-syllable name with the stress on the second syllable would sound good... I keep thinking Eve Michelle, but Michelle is a pretty out-dated name, unless you like it.

Eve Corinne
Eve Renee
Eve Lucille
Eve Denae/Denee
Eve Celeste
Eve Camille
Eve Kathleen

I agree that the middle name would have to be a two-syllable one with the emphasis you mentioned.

I like Eve Corinne and Eve Lucille, actually. Thanks!

Lorraine was the first name to come to my mind, too. Weird. I don't even really like that name...

To the OP: 2-syllable French girl's names tend to have this stress pattern, which might help if you try to do a search on one of the sites like babynames.com

I actually think Eve Isadora sounds really nice. Anything ending with that sound would work well.

Eve Isadora does sound nice! Thanks!

Try a three syllable middle name

Eve Cassandra
Eve Evangeline
Eve Christina

It just can't be two short names.

I like Eve Cassandra quite a bit, thanks =)

Eve Noelle was the first thing that popped into my head. but I also like Eve Lucille and Eve Renee!

Eve Noelle sounds pretty!

Seconding Eve Isadora!

Eve Ophelia
Eve Cecilia
Eve Alexandra

Funny you should mention that, as Cecelia is my middle name. Ophelia does sound pretty though.

I actually think a three syllable name sounds better than a two syllable one.

I really like Eve Juliet.

I also thought of:
Eve Abigail
Eve Cecilia
Eve Matilda
Eve Somerset

Funny you should mention that, as Cecelia is my middle name. I do like Eve Juliet I must say.

I've always like Eve Aurelia! (Although a lot of people hate the vowel-vowel thing.) I also really like Eve Josephine.

Maybe:

Eve Sylvia
Eve Mathilde
Eve Naomi
Eve Cecelia/Cecily
Eve Sybil(le)
Eve Colette
Eve Eleanor(a)

Eve is one of my favorite names, but I agree it can be hard to pair. That's probably why I always end up using it as a middle name. :)

the first i thought of was: adeline (line pronounced like "line" at the end, not "leen").

On my top 5 is Eve Caroline.

eve isabella

Eve Noelle is really pretty

or I like Eve Elizabeth actually, even with the double E's

Eve Isadora sounds so pretty.

Eve Louise

it has a nice flow, and feels kind of retro to me.

Eve Isobel
Eve Ophelia
Eve Juliet

(but if you love isadora, i think it goes beautifully too! I love the name Eve, it's classic, strong, but feminine)
