That's funny, I have a friend, and two of her little girls' names are Claire and Kate! Hers is Claire Renee.

How about:
Claire Elisabeth
Claire Angelina
Claire Sophia
Claire Natalie
Ooh, and I love Claire Catherine
Or similar to the last posters suggestion, how about Katherine Claire, shortened possibly to Katie Claire... I think Katherine Claire is my fav...

Good luck!! :)

I LOVE the name Claire...three syllables seem to roll off the tongue....

Elisabeth
Michaela
Sophia

You could even use Claire as a middle name....Lydia Claire.....

Well if the first name is one syllable and the last name is one syllable...a two syllable name would be good. So for example:
Claire Christine Smith, Claire Suzanne Smith, Claire Gabrielle Smith

Or even additional syllables (i just realized these are not 3 syllables but 4, lol):

Claire Gabriella Smith, Claire Elizabeth Smith

Not sure if that helped at all. LOL

You've gotten some beautiful suggestions! I would second someone who posted the possibility of using a family member's name as the middle name. Like a grand mother, great grandmother, aunt, etc. I am a big believer in family names (unless of course they're hideous! I've got quite a few in my family that I wouldn't touch with a 10 ft pole! They were all FABULOUS ladies, but their names left something to be desired!) My middle name is Marie, so is my daughter's, my mom's, my grandma's, and my great-grandma's. We wanted to keep the tradition going. Hopefully, my daughter loves her middle name as much as I do, and will give her daughter that name too. : )

My other advice is to make sure and use an E on the end of Claire. Without an E is the masculine form. (I've known 3 male Clairs.)

Good luck deciding on the name! I'm sure it will be a beautifu name whatever you choose!

My sister in laws name is Claire Elizabeth (2 syllable last name maiden, 3 syllable married). My second daughters name is Kate Marie (Katherine, but we always call her Kate).

Good luck deciding - we can come up with our third girls name (due in April), trying to find something to go with Emma and Kate -the two big sisters :)

I have a Madeline and a Claire, so I particularly liked the "Claire Madeline" response below.

My Claire just turned 5 and she's the only Claire we know her age. She's Claire Renee. We also considered Claire Elizabeth and Claire Veronica. We have a long last name, however, so decided the two syllable Renee worked best.

Good luck!

I have always love Alexandria, however my daughter's name is a combo from her father and I. I'm really big on meaning for your name. My middle name is "Kay" my husband's is "LeMont"; so her middle name is LeKay.

How ant Claire Braelyn.
I really loved this middle name mentioned in another question - Braelyn. I feel it would go well for u as well .Love the name Claire.

I like Claire, like Kate or Clara better. I like the suggestion of Claire Katherine or Claire Kathryn, or Kathryn Claire. Long middle names are probably best with a one syllable first and last name. Caroline, Kathryn, Elizabeth, Delaney, Francesca, gabrielle/Gabriella, Gwendolyn, Hannah, Eliza, Isabel/Isabella, Ashlyn, Gianna, Evelyn, Hadley, Amelia, Olivia, january ( love that actress!), Jenna, Makena/Makenna, McKinley, Meredith, Madeline, Madison,Kennedy, Naomi, Penelope, Regina, R./Rebekah, rachel, Anastasia, Sophia/Sofia/Sophie, Vanessa. Congrats on the new baby, be sure to let us know what you end up having and the name you pick! :)

Since I'm a K.... :)
I actually really like Clair. Clair Abagail sounds cute. Clair Genevieve. Clair Sophia is really pretty too.
Congrats and good luck picking a name!

Claire, in my opinion, is one of the most lovely names. There's just something so sophisticated yet simple about it.

What about Claire Michelle?

Michelle was going to be my son's middle name, had he been a girl, after my sister's middle name.

Best wishes!

Claire is lovely, a very feminine, rather old-fashioned name. How about another name of the same flavor for the middle name - Amelia... Louise... Eliza... Miranda... Elaine... Maria... Celeste...? You get the idea - girly, romantic, not too common.

Good luck. Naming can be a challenge. One of my cousins ended up with his name because his parents couldn't agree. After he was born, they still didn't have a name, so each of them wrote down a list. He ended up as "Colton" because that was the only name that both their lists had in common.

Oh, I LOVE the name Claire! My daughter (Margaret Katharine) has a BFF named Claire. Margaret and Claire, who cool is that?
When I see her I think, awwww, it's CLAIRE BEAR! I just LOVE her!

btw, I don't know her middle name, but her last name is one syllable also.

Course I'm partial to Kate too, tehehe.

Other names I love and didn't get to use
Deirdre
Grace
Maria
Marta
Rose (Rosa, Rosy)
Anne (ANY variation thereof)

Congrats to you, boy OR girl!

:)

the first name that popped in my head after Claire was Marie

I used to have a guy friend named Claire so if its a boy you can still use it :)

Usually a long first name goes better with a shot middle name (in my opinion) for example my daughter's name is Samantha Ranae.

I like Claire Elizabeth, Claire Marie, Claire Kathlyene, Claire Christine, Claire Nicole, Claire Jannet, Claire Caroline, J.

Claire Elyse
Claire Elizabeth
Claire Marie
Claire Elaine
Claire Alexandra
Claire Renee
Claire Annalise
Claire Amara
Kate Elyse
Katherine Rain

The possibilities are endless.

My first choice was also mentioned by others - good luck and congratulations!
Elyse, Alyse, Alissa..
=)

I like Claire much better. I think a 3 syllable middle name will go well, like Claire Gabrielle

Claire Elise...(or Aliece)

Claire Corrine....

Congratulations!
