Which do you like better, Natalie or Natalia? What middle names go well with these names?

I can't decide if I like Natalie or Natalia better, but right now I like Natalie Jane as a first/middle name combo.

I much prefer Natalia, as Natalie never much appealed to me.

Natalie. As others have said, Natalie Jane sounds sweet where as Natalia Jane is a bit much.

Natalia because Natalie is so common for babies right now. Natalia was actually going to be this baby's name before we settled on Mattea.

Natalie. I don't really like Natalia. Natalia seems a bit too frilly to me, kind of like Sophia or Isabella or Lilianna.

I like Natalie Jane a lot.

Natalie.
Natalia only works with languages like Russian or Italian.

I like Natalie Jane a lot! It rolls off the tongue wonderfully

Natalie, definitely! Natalia sounds both...frillier and harsher, if that's possible haha. The -ia ending sounds kind of princess-y, and it also changes it from Nat-uh-lee to Nuh-TALL-ya, and the TALL is kind of harsh sounding to me. Natalie Jane is very, very sweet and lovely. :)

I love Natalie Jane. I think it's a just perfect combination.

Not a fan of Natalia with anything. It makes me think of Nutella, the hazelnut spread.

Natalie sounds better with Jane. I think Natalia is a mouthful and would probably get shortened to something else, whereas Natalie might actually be used as a full name.

Natalia! I think that's my number one name right now, actually.

Love both, but as my current obsession in names right now is Russian names, I'm going with Natalia.
