Petra has really grown on me over the past year or so. I think it's spunky and not too cutesy. It has substance and charm.

---

Petra Anne - It works, but Anne is very plain as a middle name. How about Petra Annabel / Annabelle?
Petra Annelise - Pretty.
Petra Cecily - The first two syllables of both names contain a short "e" sound, so it sounds a tad redundant, but it still works. I like both names.
Petra Dorothy - I'm not a fan of Dorothy, but it works well with Petra.
Petra Eloise - Nice flow. I don't really care for Eloise because it reminds me of the word "wheeze", but it's decent.
Petra Felicity - Lovely. This one is my favorite out of your Petra combos.
Petra Liberty - Nice flow. I wouldn't have paired Petra and Liberty together
Petra Lucy - Lucy sounds better with Petra than Lucinda, Lucina, Luciana, etc. even though I prefer them over Lucy in general. Petra Lucille would work, but I prefer Lucy to Lucille.
Petra Margaret - This flows well. I'm not a fan of Margaret myself, but it's nice that you're honoring a friend. It gives the combo more meaning.
Petra Mary - Pretty.
Petra Melody - Nice flow.
Petra Opal - I like both names, but I don't think they flow together very well.
Petra Rose - This makes me think of a petrified rose, but it's not that big of a deal. I love Rose as a first name, but I find it bland as a middle name for the most part. Given that Petra is fairly uncommon, using a popular middle name is less of an issue than if you were using a more popular first name. Petra Rose is still far more interesting than Emma Rose, Hannah Rose, Isabella Rose, etc.
Petra Ruby - I like both names, but the "r" sounds run together.
Petra Ruth - Again, the "r" sounds run together. If you're open to using two middle names, you could place something in between Petra and Ruth so that you can still honor your great-grandmother if that is important to you. Something like Petra Helen Ruth or Petra Felicity Ruth would be nice.
