Middle Name for Olivia

I am looking for a middle name for Olivia...here is what we have come up with so far, none of which we are really set on:

Olivia Jane - I like this one, however DH's mom has that name, Jane, and we don't really want to name her after anyone.

Olivia Marie
Olivia Rose
Olivia Lynn
Olivia E. - no name, just an inital, the E stands for my maiden name though

Any other names that would go well with Olivia?

Thanks!

I really like Olivia Jane too. But second choice would be Olivia Rose. Very pretty.

I love Olivia! I like all your middle name choices, though I feel that unless they have personal signficance they are sort of "filler names". It seems like the vast majority of women out there have the middle names: Ann(e), Lynn, Marie, etc. Lately Rose and Grace have been added to that list too. Nothing wrong with any of these names. They are pretty and flow well with just about everything, that's why they are so popular. They just don't really jump out at me because they are common. That might be why you aren't super excited about any of them.

I'm not a big fan of the idea of using a middle initial with no name. That just seems a little odd and she'll probably have to explain it a lot. Plus I just love names, so I wouldn't waste an opportunity to use a pretty one. ;) What about actually using your maiden name? I know tons of girls with their mother's maiden name as their middle name and most of them really love it. If you don't want to use your maiden name, maybe pick an E name that you like?

Other suggestions I think are pretty:
Olivia Blythe
Olivia Brianne
Olivia Brooke
Olivia Camille
Olivia Claire
Olivia Danielle
Olivia Eden
Olivia Eileen
Olivia Elle
Olivia Eve
Olivia Frances
Olivia Gail
Olivia Giselle
Olivia Grace
Olivia Gwen
Olivia Jade
Olivia Joelle
Olivia Joy
Olivia Kate
Olivia Katherine
Olivia Mae
Olivia Megan
Olivia Nicole
Olivia Quinn
Olivia Renee

I like Olivia Claire or Olivia Paige. Why not give her an "E" mn.

Olivia Ellen
Olivia Eileen
Olivia Erin

I don't like the idea of giving her just an initial as a mn. Maybe use your maiden name instead. It just sounds odd. How about Olivia Faye or Olivia Sage? I like Olivia Rose quite a bit. Its extremely pretty and feminine.
