Nothing on my PNL is inspiring me right now. Surprise me with any middle name for Iona (female version obvs) that you think sounds good. Surname is three syllables.Thanks!

I have to resist my urge to pick typical, boring names, haha.Iona Pandora (the double -a ending is a little unfortunate)
Iona Romilly
Iona Dianne
Iona Artemisia (I think the double -a ending works here)
Iona Grace(lynn) (nobody but me will like this, but I think it's beautiful!)
Iona Lisande
Iona Stephanie
Iona Natasha
Iona Nicolette (this might be a little too modern, but I kind of like it, regardless)
Iona Eulalie/EulaliaDo you like any?

Iona Lucy
Iona Mairwen
Iona Margaret (can't use because family)

It's gonna be a mouthful regardless :DI love...Iona Charlotte
Iona Tamsin
Iona Talitha - one of my cousins has a daughter named Talitha, but this is one of the few with two -a endings that works for me
Iona Bridget
Iona Verity
Iona Harriet
Iona Lillian
Iona Meredith
Iona Melisande (I've got an SCA friend named Melisande and also I'd worry that people would think it was after the Kushiel's Dart character, but still!)
Iona Margaret (can't use because family)
Iona Beatrix
Iona Sorrel

Iona Rosalind is perfect. I like Iona Bridget as well, though I think I'd go for Iona Brigid. So beautifully Celtic.

Thank you! I love Iona Grace but I think it's a little too Catholic for this atheist lol. Katherine, Josephine and Louise are already in use in the family (cousins!). I love Iona Lucille, Iona Mathilde and Iona Mae.
