Middle names for Delilah?

My husband and I recently found out we are expecting our first baby in November! We are of course very excited and have started working on names. We don't know the sex of the baby yet, but are planning to find out. We have been focused on the girl's name right now because we've decided on Delilah for the first name (NO CLUE on boys!! lol). While talking about it the other day, my husband suggested finding a middle name that starts with B so the baby would have his initials (his name is Dustin Bradley). It's not something we are dead set on, as in if we can't find a single B middle name that we like, we'll start looking at other names. So give me your best B middle name that would go with Delilah, or anything else you think sounds good with it, even if it doesn't start with B. We are still pretty open to almost anything!

Thanks in advance!

LOL that was the FIRST one that popped into my head. Not a name I would ordinarily EVER recommend, but it just jumped out, and I come in and here it is! It goes really well with Delilah.

Oo this is a cute idea, having her initials be D.B. like his! :D B names have always been hard for me though... there's not a lot of B names i like, myself :-S

how about:
Delilah Bernice
Delilah Bess
Delilah Beverly
Delilah Britney
Delilah Brooke
Delilah Bryce

Delilah Belle comes to mind first. =]

This.

I think Delilah needs a short, snappy middle name. How about:
Delilah Blue
Delilah Beth
Delilah Bao - Chineese for "precious treasure" - Prn Bow, as in bow from the waist
Delilah Betsy
Delilah Brooke
Delilah Baz
Delilah Brie

I personally really like the Spanish name Belén, pronounced Bel-LAYN.

Delilah Belén. I like it!

Delilah is one of my favorites! The only names coming to mind are Betsy or Beth/Bethany.

I don't like many B names, it seems. Delilah Beatrice and Delilah Brynn are really all that are coming to mind and I see they have already been suggested. Hm...maybe Delilah Bronwen?

Some Non B-Names:
Delilah Genevieve
Delilah Clare
Delilah Jane
Delilah Persephone
Delilah Tabitha
Delilah Catherine
Delilah Tamsin

I'd go with something short, since Delilah is relatively long. I really like the suggestion of Delilah Bree. :)

First name that comes to mind is Delilah Belle.

Delilah Bonnie popped into my head first!

I know of 2 newborn girls named Delilah Rose and Delilah Jane.
I like Brynn, as someone else suggested.

most of the ones I've thought of have already been suggested. The only name I thought of that I didn't see suggested was Delilah Blair

I don't have any suggestions to be honest, but an invitation to join the November 2010 birth community!

I just thought of another one...it's pretty out there, but I think it sounds nice:

Delilah Briseis (Bree-say-iss).

It's a name from Homer's The Iliad.

I absolutely adore Delilah Belle.
