Audrey Catherine
Audrey Charlotte

But I find Catherine, Charlotte and Frances a bit long when combined with the last name. It might just be that all three names (first, middle and last) are two syllables because if I try Elizabeth in the middle it actually sounds better even though it is longer. I find when all of persons names have the same number of syllables it sounds like just a list of names rather than one persons name.
If I was going to use Catherine I would probably spell it Kathryn because that spelling is significant to me. I had actually thought of the combo Audrey Kathryn but wasn't sure about it for two reasons - one being the flow thing and the other being 'is it too Hepburn'?! Different spelling of Katharine I know, but still.
