I am expecting my second daughter in three months and am struggling to find a name that goes well with Carey (middle name) Dixon (surname). My 1 year old is Elena Summer Dixon (pronounced Elle-len-a) so I would like a name that sounds nice with Elena. Both Carey and Summer are my great-grandmothers surnames so I'm set on Carey as a middle name, just need help finding a first name that's not too common and flows nicely. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

One of my favourite girls names is Josephine and that sounds lovely with Carey.

I think lots of names would sound lovely with Carey as a middle name. Just not Mariah . Juliet Carey Imogen Carey Gabrielle Carey (suggested as I know sisters Gabrielle and Elena) Sabine Carey Natasha Carey Beatrix Carey Scarlett Carey Harriet Carey Vivienne Carey Lucia Carey

'sup y'all...(:P)
i think Ava Carey Dixon sounds nice. i was going to suggest Ella but then read on... imho i think a 2 syllable name would flow nicely, since the other two names also have 2 syllables, so it would sound even, iykwim?and since carey ends in a y, i wouldnt have an ee sound on the end, too samey. i love: Asha Bella (although it has been done to death) Opal Maya/Mia Jasmine...
