Middle Name Suggestions?

What middle names would you suggest for LORELEI and JULIA? I don't think our family names go very well, but I've included a list below just in case someone sees something I don't. Other suggestions would be welcomed. I am not necessarily set on using a family name although it would be nice.

Cynthia
Michelle
Wilhemina
Mae
Evelyn
Jeanette (possibly Jean as a shortened version?)
Lynn
Rachael
Emmaline

After all that, my DH doesn't like Lorelei Eve or Julia Eve! He doesn't think they go well together. Husbands sure are frustrating!

Thanks, I like Lorelei Michelle too but I have an aunt with that name. And you should never use a name of someone you don't like. LOL

LOL I completely understand! BTW, how did you and your DH decide on Lorelei? It's always been a favorite of mine so I like to hear how other people came across it.

When we were pg for Charles Jr. DH came up with "the deal". We just knew that was going to be the last child we tried for. When I was 8wks was told I probably couldn't have any more w/o help. I ended up pg 2 more times after on our own. LOL Deal was if it was a boy he would be a Jr. a girl would have my name or form of. I agreed just knowing it would be a boy not a girl. LOL DH started looking thru all the girl names that were similar sounding to Laura. I ruled out Laura, Lori and Lauren from the start. I graduated with over a dozen other girls with one of these 3 names. I refused to have a child with a name in the top anything name list. But, now Mason and Harley are all over the darn place. He came across Lorelei and loved it took a bit longer to grow on me. Gilmore Girls was way to popular 3yrs ago for me to want to use it. He and I have always picked each a name we loved then we used them together to make up each of the kids names. That way we both liked their names. Just so happens that the way they all worked out DH gets first name and I get middles.

How about you when did you decide Lorelei was on the list?
