MN suggestions for Reagan

I think we have decided on if we have a girl her name will be Reagan, but we cant decide on middle.  I know its silly, but DH wants Elizabeth and even though I think that sounds good, its his moms middle name.  I feel that by doing that we are somehow honoring her and dismissing my mom.  I said I could be in agreement with Elizabeth as a MN as long as we dont say its his moms middle and just that it sounded nice with Reagan.

However, Im still not sold on it......any suggestions?  The only other family names would be Denise and Audrey, both of which sound horrible with Reagan....

I think you need to explore WHY you feel like choosing Elizabeth to honor your DH's mom would make you feel like you are dismissing your mom. I think it would be really hurtful/weird to make a point of telling people (esp your MIL) that the only reason you went with Elizabeth is because it sounded good.

Why not let your DH honor his mom? If your mom feels left out, tell her you plan to honor her or your side of the family with your next child's name. I think Reagan Elizabeth sounds nice together!

Sorry, just had to toss in my 2 cents!
