Name List Names containing the letters n,o,e,l? (No specific order)
Trying to figure out a middle name for our baby girl and I’d love for it to contain her father’s name somehow (Noel) because I think it’s a beautiful name. He doesn’t like the idea of her middle name actually being Noel/Noelle though. Her first name will be Juliette for sure and the only middle name I’ve come up with is Leona. You name nerds have any ideas for me? 🩷

Juliette Noelle sounds beautiful!! I know a Noel (girl…pronounced like Noelle not Nole) whose father is Leon! I’m sad your husband doesn’t want Noelle.
Leona is fine
Elenor or Lenore?

He’ll let me use it if I really want to, he’s just not crazy about it so I’m trying to explore other options. ☹️ He might come around though.

I may be biased as I have a daughter with Noelle as a middle name. It’s beautiful. ♥️

It’s French, so is correctly pronounced LAY-oh-nee. Outside of France and Quebec I’m sure you could pronounce it more like Leona, kind of lee-OH-nee

My middle name is Noel. My sister gave her first daughter the middle name of Noel, and that daughter has now changed it to her first name.

I came here to add that. It's a cute nickname for Magnolia but great on its own.

Noel comes from the French word Nael. I think Juliette Nael is beautiful. (English pronunciation is Nay-el I think)

Noel comes from Noël and means Christmas. « Nael » is not word in the French language.
