Any ideas?
Aria is the song sung in any opera It is not a proper name for a human being. As you don't care, then keep in same vein, how about
"Allegretto" or "Ottava."

Let's be realistic for just one moment ... Very few people in the real word use their middle names. I know I don't and it's "monosyllabic".
At best it will be relegated to an initial in a signature.
With that said, OP, go for something grand if you like. It kind of doesn't matter and despite all the unmitigated mess in this thread there have been some (very few) good suggestions.
Happy naming and good luck with a happy and healthy pregnancy!

OP here. The last name is hyphenated and 2-syllables in each last name.
Mainly because of the last name the middle name needs 3 syllables to flow. One syllable middle names sound flat for the full name.
So you want to saddle your kid with A-ri-a Clem-en-tine Hy-phen-dumb-name? That's awful. The middle name should absolutely just be one syllable.

You’re a lunatic. I can’t imagine caring enough about this to call someone out of their name. It is 11pm on the east coast, on a school night, and you are attempting to berate a random poster on an anonymous board about their child’s middle name. Put the bottle down, check on your kids and go to bed.
PP sounds a lot more fun than you, tbh
Your definition of fun is questionable.
DP. Also think pp is fun and this thread is getting amazing.
I also don’t think it’s the op who is snappily dissing posters. I think it’s other invested posters.
Ariaaaaaaaaa. Ariaaaaaaaaaa. How do you solve a problem like Ariaaaaa?
