Have middle names but no first names! Any suggestions?

Hi! This is my first post on this blog. My husband and I are expecting in the end of April, but we are choosing not to find out the gender of our baby. I already have an idea of what I want for middle names for either a boy or a girl. For a girl, I would like the middle name to be Emogene in honor of my late grandmother. For a boy, the middle name will be William, which is my husbands name and is a family name as well. There's also a possibility of having Rita as a middle name for a girl since that's the name of both of our living grandmothers, but I'm leaning more towards Emogene. Does anyone have any suggestions for first names to go with these middle names???

If you want to honor Rita, what about Margaret (the name Rita actually comes from Margaret) or Marguerite? I think Margaret Emogene would be lovely.

Lila Emogene
Eleanor Emogene
Camille Emogene
Ivy Emogene
Lydia Emogene
Iris Emogene
Catherine Emogene
Eliza Emogene
Maia Emogene
Julia Emogene
Charlotte Emogene

Henry William
Oliver William
James William
Jasper William
Elias William
Raphael William
Arlo William
Matthew William

I love the suggestion of Marguerite Imogene (I prefer this spelling - even though it is a family name - because of the EMOgene). Others that would be pretty are Matilda Imogene, Helena Imogene, Victoria Imogene, and Abigail Imogene.

For a boy, nearly everything goes with William! Archer William, Benjamin William, Elias William, Carson William, Herschel William, Holden William, etc. I would need more information about your style to comment further...

GOOD LUCK!

Hazel Emogene
Ivy Emogene (Oops! I just this was already suggested...I love it!)
Margot Emogene
Mabel Emogene
Phoebe Emogene
Ruby Emogene
Violet Emogene

I think that first names having two syllables sound great with Emogene.

Charles William
Dexter William
Jude William
Leo William
Miles William
Milo William
Thomas William

Good luck! :-)
