Thank you all so much for your input so far on names. I've always dreamed of having a little girl and here I am less than two weeks from my due date and still do not feel that I have a name that feels just right. We have narrowed our choices down to three. As mentioned before I have two boys Alex and Andrew. I would love your input on middle names. My last name is on the longer side, so I am thinking a one syllable mn may be nice. Let me know what you think

katherine grace (no connection to either name, just like the flow)
katherine mai (pron. my, my middle name)
Katherine Malie (grandmother's name)
Elizabeth ? (I like the name Lily, and think I would use it as a NN)
Sophie Elizabeth

A few family names are
Anderson
Eevi
Malie
Mai

I guess I really need help with mn that sound nice with Katherine or Elizabeth

You have nice choices. I like Katherine Mai or Elizabeth Malie best. Katherine Grace is such a popular combination. I also like the family ties with the other middle name choices.

Have you considered Sophia Mai? I think that's very pretty too.

I really don't think you can go wrong with any of the names on your list.

I would avoid Grace as a mn... so overdone. I really like the idea of passing down your mn or your grandmother's name. Katherine Malie or Katherine Mai gets my vote.

Elizabeth Malie nn Lily or Elizabeth Mai nn Lily are both great names imo.
