My husband and I just found out we're expecting, and we've had a couple of names on our tentative list for a while now.

We really like Atticus for a boy, and Carina for a girl. I'm looking for ideas for middle names that would work (the last name would be two syllables beginning with B if it helps).

I had posted a while ago about toying with using my father's first name as a middle name, but Atticus Edward doesn't quite fit. Similarly, our mother's names are Wendy and Linda, and neither sound super with Carina.

So, can you suggest a middle name? To narrow it down, we are not interested in any biblical names, though other traditional names are welcome. Thanks so much!

I really like Atticus Edward!
I also love the name Carina, because I work with an amazing woman named Karina!
I just came to say that.. My brain is not 100% functional yet.

Do you like Atticus Edward? I wasn't sure, and when I posted about it before it got mixed reviews. I rather like it, but wasn't sure if I was biased since I *want* it to work!

And we both love Carina, though we didn't know until recently that it's an actual name! D'oh... we were desperately trying to come up with pretty female names and thought of the constellation; only after searching it online did we discover it's actually a name that's in use!

Thanks for your reply.
