i voted something else, but i think knowing how long your last name is would help

i think that brooke needs a 3 syllable name following it - some 1 or 2 syllable names might work though depending on the last name

First of all, I think Brooke is a lovely name! I really like it. For a mn, I'm not crazy about Hailey or Ashley. Hailey makes it more trendy overall, while I feel Ashley is a little dated. If either has specific significance for you, definitely use it. I'm for special or family names over any other. However, if neither of those names has a special meaning to you, I'd go with something more classic with Brooke. I grew up with a Brooke Allison, and I think that's nice.

Others that I like:
Brooke Josephine
Brooke Juliet
Brooke Phoebe
Brooke Adeline
Brooke Celeste
Brooke Claudia
Brooke Frances
Brooke Eleanor
Brooke Jillian
Brooke Miranda
Brooke Melanie
Brooke Susannah

GL and HTH,

Personally, I'd prefer a longer, and more traditional, middle name to go with Brooke. Some possibilities that I like are . . .

Brooke Adeline
Brooke Amelia
Brooke Annabelle
Brooke Arabella
Brooke Elizabeth
Brooke Isabella
Brooke Lucinda
Brooke Madeline/Madelyn
Brooke Meredith

Just my thoughts . . .

I don't think Hailey or Ashley sound right in the middle with Brooke

when you have a 1-syllable name, it's best if the middle name has the accent on the 2nd or 3rd syllable of the middle name, which Hailey and Ashley do not

Brooke Alexandra, Brooke Alexis or Alexa, Brooke Amanda, Brooke Delaney, Brooke Danielle, Brooke Elise, Brooke Elizabeth, Brooke Gisele, Brooke Janelle, Brooke Javonne, Brooke Lynelle, Brooke Liyonna, Brooke Michelle, Brooke Mackenzie, Brooke Nicole, Brooke Noelle, Brooke Olivia, Brooke Rhiannon, Brooke Samantha, Brooke Savannah, Brooke Sienna, Brooke Selena, Brooke Sabrina, Brooke Sierra, Brooke Taleen, Brooke Victoria

good luck

I chose Ashley because of the two names, I like Ashley better than Hailey as a middle name for Brooke. But I agree with some of the pp that unless it was significant, I would use something else for the mn.

Brooke Ashley is one of mine and dh's first choices! I love it. My friend just had a little girl and named her Brooke Avery ... I thought that was cute too!
