Personally, I prefer a middle name with a family connection, even if it's a derivation rather than the exact name. e.g. I think one syllable would sound best with Annika so if a favorite family member was "Katherine", I'd go with Annika Kate
+ 1. All three of my kids have middle names that are after a relative. My five year old is named after my grandfather who died before he was born and he loves hearing stories about him. That said, I really like Annika Rose or Annika Noelle. I prefer Noelle, but I like both.
