I love the name Sky / Skye, but I'm having a really hard time fitting it with any of the middle names I want to use.
All of these names are significant to me which is why I want to use then, and not just any old name. I have listed them with the most important names nearest the top:
Annabel - no variations
Sophie - possibly Sophia
Lily - no variations
Eve - possibly Eva, Evie, etc
Hazel
Kate - no variations

But none of these names sound right with Sky, probably because Sky is just one syllable. Although it would make things easier, I dont want to use Skylar/Skyler etc. Just Skye or Sky.

So I am thinking of using two middle names or a double barrel middle name. What do you think of:
Sky Sophie Eve
Sky Lily-Kate
Sky Annabel Eve

Can you think of others that work well (from my list of middle names)?

Also do you prefer Sky or Skye?

Some of this would flow better than others depending on your last name (or future last name) but here are some ideas:

Skye Annabel
Skye Lisette
Skye Eden
Skye Imogen(e)

I dunno... the only "person" I know named Sky doesn't have a middle name cause he's my dog.

I love Skye spelled this way, and the name in general.

What about:
Skye Annabel-Kate
Skye Lily-Hazel
Skye Sophie-Kate
Skye Annabel-Lily

I love Skye Annabel.

I like Skye Annabel. I don't think you need two middle names, although I know how hard it can be to come up with names that fit one-syllable first nams. And I love how you spelled Annabel. :) I think it looks so floofy and over-the-top when it's Annabelle, or worse, Annabella.

I love the name Skye, spelled this way. To me, it looks incomplete as a name without the e on the end. Just my personal preference, though I think it's a beautiful name either way. Also, I don't lump it together with the whole "Skylar" trend at all. I think it's a classic nature/place name that should never go out of style. That being said, I favor it mostly as a middle name. From your choices I like:

Skye Sophia
Skye Annabel Eve

Unfortunately, I think that only a longer middle name would sound best with one-syllable Sky(e). I understand your attachment to the middles, but if you really want it to flow well, you should consider looking for names with at least three syllables to go with Skye. Good luck! :)

oh, i love 'Sky(e) Sophie Eve.' just make sure the middle name you choose isn't an adjective. you don't want her to be one of those unfortunately children whose name is a sentence. like "Skye Rose Eve" or something. i think i just like three syllables after it.

i know what cadence it is that i like but the only names i can think of withh it are Patricia and Matilda. and no one likes Patricia anymore. Matilda is cute. Skye Matilda?

I don't like it with two middle names.

Sky Hazel is nice, I think. Or Sky Annabel.

Skye Hazel Skye Hazel Skye Hazel!

Or
Hazel Skye!


Okay so you've already ruled that out so Ill vote for Skye Lily-Kate. Lily is my all time favourite name plus I do like Eve ot Annabel.

Oh, if you haven't noticed I like Skye better, I love both spelling though. I think the whole no (I dont count the y for some reason) vowel thing makes the name look incomplete.

I think that Sky/e makes a better middle name. You're going to have a tough time using it as a first.

Skye is one of my favorites. I think it looks incomplete (as a name) without the E. Love love love it. I agree, though, that none of those sound right. So I like Sky Lily-Kate. I think that's beautiful!

I LOVE the name Sky and Skyler.

I really like Skye Danielle or Sky Lily-Kate (like the person above me)

Also, just a suggestion for the name "Hazel."

I think Hazel Rose is gorgeous.
