Catherine is lovely. I'd probably pair it with something a little less common.

Catherine Elodie

Catherine Anneliese

Catherine Julianna

Catherine Maeve

Catherine Sylvia

That's exactly what I was thinking. I was surprised to see it listed. I love Maeve.

I think 3 syllables, 1 syllable, 3 syllables would have a nice ring to it.

My dd is Kate, but her middle name is Marie.

My other dd's middle name is Grace.

Catherine Grace.

I was going to post this, my youngest is Carissa Grace and I love her name

What about a family name- for example your maiden name or one of her Grandmother's maiden names? Those can be a very nice way to keep those names "in the family" . I also like seeing a feminine name such as Catherine paired with a not so feminine middle name....

Catherine Anabelle

DD's middle name is Florence (great-grandmother's name) - that would be nice with Catherine.

Our DD's name is Katherine Aileen but DH really wanted Katherine Mae..

Love the name Katherine - there are so many nice versions of it. Our daughter (5) goes by Katie now but we also call her Kate...and I just think it is a name that can grow with her as she gets older. I always like more classic names - no "unique" spelling for me either!

We like Katherine Aileen too, but Aileen is a family name and it is already the middle name of the new babies sister.

OOh, I like Catherine Rose, Catherine Ava and Catherine Elise. This is my sister's new baby and the baby shower is tomorrow. She asked us to come with middle names. The thing is their last name starts with a D so an A middle name will make her initials CAD. My sister is already BAD and my niece is SAD!

We would love to do this but the available maiden names are Coward and Fulcher. Not so pretty...

Earlier I voted for Grace since that's DD's name. I chose Grace because it was my Grandmother's name. Look back at grandparents or other relatives and try to choose a name from someone that was really important to you or your spouse.

For baby Catherine. Any ideas?

I would use an old family name.

I also used Grace for one of my dd's because it was on both dh's and my side.

 

[3doodlebugsmom]

How about Catherine Alyssa?
That's what we named our DD, but we spell her first name with a K.

 

[DWGal210]

My name is Katharine (dif spelling than yours) but my middle name is Claire. I've always like my name.

My DD is Grace Leah ( the baby's cousin) . Grace was our grandmother's name. We had a grandmother Aileen, but that is the baby's sister's middle name. I always love the name Grace, it is so classic.

 

[laurie31]

My DD's name is Catherine Nicole.

Her sister is Elizabeth, so that ruled that one out.

We almost named her Laura Catherine, but in the end didn't want to call her by her middle name. (no offense to anyone who chooses that, but DH's brother is called by his middle name and it has caused him problems, so we didn't want to go that route).

Is there a name from the family you can use as a middle name? Grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt etc. Some people even use a family last name as a middle name.
