You need a good middle name so you can call her that instead of Soleil |
Thanks everyone! After reading your responses and other feedback from friends, we decided to scrap the name Soleil altogether (even though I really love it)! Thanks for the feedback! You all were a lot nicer than our friends, lol. |

DCUM victory! |
Hey OP:
Let’s pretend you still opted to go with Soleil. Did any of the suggested middle names jump out as possibilities? Just curious. |
Aurore and Claire. |
Don’t tell any the name irl. |
Weird name choice. It’s isn’t used in france either. Can Soleil be the middle name instead? |
Estelle |
Wow. I was liking Solveig as a name, which has a similar sound to Soleil (accent on different syllables though). Now I'm second-guessing considering how close-minded people still are with names from other languages. |
That’s a real shame OP. My daughter has a friend with that name and I just think it’s beautiful. |
yup |
I like Grace, too. If Soleil was mostly your idea, I think you should let your husband have some more say over the middle name. And vice versa if Soleil was mostly his idea. I will say, your kid will either love it or hate it. And if she hates it, she may very well gravitate toward a more traditional name like Grace. I'm saying that as someone who has an "Adam" (can't be more traditional than that), who'd much rather be a Logan or Braydon or Kai right now. ![]() |
Smart move. |
At this point, I won’t. They will find out her name when she’s born. |
