babynamesSo my husband and I have tentatively chosen the name Mila for our baby if it is a girl. It's not at the top of my list but it's the only name my husband likes and I was the one who suggested it to him, so I guess that's it!
I want a middle name that will honour my mother in some way but we are having a hard time thinking of something that sounds good with Mila. The names we have to work with are Karen and Ann. I like Mila Kate but my husband says that Kate sounds too "preppy and white" (I am white but he is not).
So, what are some names you can think of that will honour my mama and sound good with Mila?
Baby will be joining siblings Stella Marie and Felix Xavier.

I think it's really cute!!! You can still hear sounds of Karen in it, and I think it flows really well with Mila, and also I think overall it works great within the sibset.
