[Opinions] Rio
My husband and I love the name Rio for a girl...I know people say its a boys name but that doesnt bother me. Anyway my son is Asa James and I am looking for some good middle names to go with Rio. So far my favs are Elise and Simone. I would love to hear any suggestions!

I actually quite like the name Rio and I prefer it for a girl myself. I remember the 80's song "Rio" by Duran Duran and they reference a female in that song, so that's probably why I prefer it for a girl. Rio Elise is not a bad combo. I also like:Rio Louise / Louisa
Rio Tabitha
Rio Phoebe
Rio Eliza
Rio Estelle
Rio Alice
Rio Sasha
Rio Sadie
Rio Sabrina
Rio Hannah
Rio Kathryn
Rio Madeleine
Rio Clara

I like Rio Elise. Also Rio Amira, Rio Alastriona, Rio Galena, Rio Hecate, Rio Morgana, Rio Sylvie / Sylvia / Sylva / Sylvania, Rio Shira, Rio Alba, and Rio Arania
(Although personally I prefer Rio on a boy and Ria on a girl, Rio does sound cute on a girl. Maybe I prefer it as a nn.)Oh, and Rio Aquila too

I've always associated it with being a girl's name thanks to the Duran Duran song. Other than that example, I have yet to see it on a boy... ever.I like the combo Rio Simone. I can't quite think of any other combos for it at the moment though.(by the way, this is just ICEyun... I changed my display name)

Rio Simone is gorgeous. I don't mind Rio for a girl, it's very edgy.Other ideas:Rio Lisette
Rio Celeste
Rio Selene
Rio Sylvia
Rio Estelle
Rio Stella
I also like it paired with silvery s-infused names, apparently :)
