[Opinions] Catherine

I have always loved the name Catherine, I think it is beautiful, classic, and very feminine. I plan to use it someday if I have a girl. My problem is with coming up with a middle name...I can't find anything that "fits" with Catherine. Any suggestions? I love a lot of old-fashioned girls names, but I think Catherine needs something a little bit "different." I love different but still legit names, such as Isadora, and I also have a weakness for Greek names such as Ariadne. Thanks!

I'm not really good at this...

I like the name Catherine. It's very classic. My friend plans to use the combo Lily Catherine, one day.

My grandmother was Kathryn Inez. My soon-to-be niece will be Kathryn Joyce after my grandmother and my mom. I know you plan to use a different spelling of Kathryn but I think Inez and Joyce both sound pretty with Kathryn/Catherine. Other names I find pretty that are legitimate but a little more unusual:
