    What do you think of these? What middle names matches

    Bentley I know it's a little wore out but were car enthusiast.

    Thomas - we met at a fair called Thomas amusments

    Danara pronounced Dane- air-ah.its the first 3 letters of my moms name ( Dana) and the last 3 of my husband mom ( barbara)

    Eris. This is another combo name my nan's name was ermie and his is Doris

    Aurora - I think it's super cute

    Ariel- also super cute.

    What would be good middle names for these?

    Love Thomas and Aurora. The other's are NMS, either a little too trendy or invented.

    Bentley - It's not a bad name, but it bothers me that it's actually inspired by a car. Just seems kinda...materialistic.

    Thomas - I like the idea behind this and the name!

    Danara pronounced Dane-air-ah - The name isn't terrible, but the pronunciation seems a bit clunky. I'd be more likely to say dan-ARE-uh

    Eris - hmm, not fond of this one, too much like heiress, maybe as a mn

    Aurora - It's pretty, but I'm not really in the love club for this one.

    Ariel - I like it. I like it better spelled Arielle

    I think Thomas Bentley flows very nicely.

    As the girls names all have airy-feels I don't think any of them work together as fn mn, you'd need a stronger sound for a middle.

    I like your pronuciation like Damara changed to Danara. Do you have a middle name suggestion for any of the female names

    I like Thomas, Aurora and Eris best. So that you know, though, Eris is the name of the Greek goddess of strife. It's a pretty name, but the connotation might turn you off a little.

    I'd assume all the A's were short or "ah" - like Samara with different consonants. I get half of where you're coming from - Dana has a long A, but neither name has an "air".

    Bentley - pleasant.

    Thomas - Cute with the personal connection. Otherwise it wouldn't be my favourite but its a good solid name.

    Aurora - I love this, my favourite of your girls name.

    Ariel - Arielle or Ariella is more feminine. I see it the same as Daniel vs. Danielle, Gabriel vs. Gabrielle. But I know a handful of boy Ariels.

    A good middle name really varies a lot by how many syllables a last name has. I tend to default to liking one-syllable middles with longer first names but not always, a short one doesn't work with a Smith/Jones 1 syllable last.

    My favorite of your boy names is Thomas. What a wonderful story behind it! Thomas Bentley could work.

    I do not like invented names... Sounds a bit "Renesmee" to me. It may be best to honor these women with a middle name.

    Aurora is a bit difficult to say.

    Arielle is wonderful! The only problem is that it doesnt seem to flow well with any of the grandmother's names. I like Arielle Grace.
