I have a hard time with the length of names at times.
Right now my FH and I like the name Rhiannon, but I cant figure out any names that will flow nicely with it...other than "filler" names and I would like to stay away from most of those. Any suggestions?

Uh it depends what you mean by filler names, everyone seems to have a different take. So I'll just avoid the ones that I consider filler names.

Rhiannon Kate
Rhiannon Elise
Rhiannon Eleanor
Rhiannon Sophie
Rhiannon Lillia
Rhiannon Willow

Some of these would flow better than others depending on your last name, but here are some ideas:

Rhiannon Eleanor
Rhiannon Juliet
Rhiannon Charlotte
Rhiannon Abigail
Rhiannon Felicity
Rhiannon Olivia

I like Rhiannon too. It seems to be a name that just doesn't get noticed but everyone should love because it's so similar to all these other popular names.

I think if you're completely fixated on 'flow' then only filler middle names will work, because that's the whole point of them - they are used as fillers because they are great at flowing with any name. But if you are happy enough for it to be a name you like... any name should flow adequately. I mean, I would say you should avoid really similar names like Rhiannon Rebecca or Rhiannon Brianna... but what's really wrong with names like Rhiannon Caroline or Rhiannon Sarah, if you liked those names? So I'm sure if you just look for other names you like you will find one that's good eventually!

Any family/friends you'd like to honor? Otherwise, it's all "filler"... but you could at least stay away from the most common fillers, so...

Rhiannon June
Rhiannon Alice
Rhiannon Audrey
Rhiannon Dawn
Rhiannon Daisy
Rhiannon Iris
Rhiannon Hazel
Rhiannon Josephine

I really like Rhiannon Olivia. Maybe Rhiannon Claire? Rhiannon Sarah? I still think Rhiannon Olivia sounds the best.

I agree w/ the Rhiannon Sarah. Though, if you really can't decide on a middle name, why not skip it and not give her one? :) I know a lot of people without middle names and NONE of them are resentful for it.

*points to username, grins*

I think longer first names work better with short middle names, so Brook, Skye (I think those first two are the nicest), Dawn, Jane, Jade, Bess, May, Grace, Grier, Kate, Hope, Claire, Reese, June, Faith.

I also like Sarah, which other people have suggested, and Justine.
