    In need of classic/vintage middle names!

    I have posted in the past for help and all the responses were so great, I figured you would all be able to help again!

    My gp name has been Magnolia and I would use it in a heartbeat, if I didn't have a niece, whom I am extremely close to, named Maggie. The other day I stumbled upon the name Juniper, which makes my heart flutter the way Magnolia does, especially since it has great nn potential. Also, my husband is in LOVE with the name June, but I find it too short with our ln--you can see why I would be so excited to find Juniper! I cautiously approached my husband about it and by some miracle he doesn't hate it! It actually makes sense that he would like it, his top names are: Hazel, Violet, Scarlet, Iris...

    This is what I need help with:
    - Is it tacky for a baby born in July to have June in her name? I am due July 6th, there's a possibility she could be born in June. Is THAT tacky?
    - Middle name ideas...We both love vintage/classic names, perhaps something more feminine should be paired with Juniper?

    Work your magic, berries! Thanks!!

    I love Juniper Mary, because my mom's name is Maryann and would love to honor her! And I love Nell and Lucinda! Thank you for all of the great ideas!

    Juniper Mary is very beautiful. Any suggestion I thought of didn't compare. And I agree the nickname June can work regardless of which month she is born in.

    Juniper and June are great for any month. I like Juniper Mary, too! Juniper Marian, Juniper Mariah, or Juniper Mariel might work to honor her if you were interested in alternatives.

    Juniper is great, and pairing it with Mary to honor your mother is a lovely idea. Also, there's a good chance she could be born in June (not that it matters if she were a July baby named Juniper).

    I only think month names are tacky when the baby gets the name of the month she's born in. Baby June was born in June, like that. It makes me feel like the parents were too lazy to come up with an actual name so they just picked the month.
    That being said, her name wouldn't be June, it would be Juniper, so I don't see much of an issue ^_^

    Here's some middle names:

    Juniper Olivia
    Juniper Scarlett
    Juniper Elise
    Juniper Claire
    Juniper Louise
    Juniper Beatrice
    Juniper Alice
    Juniper Charlotte
    Juniper Eliza
    Juniper Eve
    Juniper Florence
    Juniper Irene
    Juniper Madeline
    Juniper Beatrice
    Juniper Marianne
    Juniper Cora
    Juniper Faye
    Juniper Pearl
    Juniper Sylvia
    Juniper Daphne
    Juniper Olive
    Juniper Aurora
    Juniper Penelope
    Juniper Bernice
    Juniper Fern

    I am glad I was able to find something that could possibly be a contender. Knowing that Juniper Mary would honour family, I start to like the name even more.
