Petra Eloise - pretty, but I don't particularly like the a E together
Petra Felicity - I love Felicity but this has a hint of "patrified"
Petra Liberty - nms but flows well
Petra Lucy - pretty
Petra Margaret - would honor a dear friend - nice
Petra Mary - would honor a great-grandmother - lovely; I really like this

Thanks for your comments on the combos! I'm certainly re-thinking all of the R and A middle name for Petra, they either run together or just sound odd like you said. Thanks for your suggestions, I like all of the names you mentioned but Petra Helen and Petra Louise stand out to me the most. There's and aunt and a great aunt in my family that have Louise in their name so it might work.
