Thea's kind of cute, but I don't think you'll have much luck getting people to understand that it's pronounced Tay-A when most of the girls who use it pronounce it The-, like the end of Dorothea for instance.
If you like the Tay-A sound, I'd recommend just finding a spelling that reflects that sound, maybe Taya? Or Tea, like Tea Leoni?
And yes, it goes pretty well with Oliver, Clara and Tobias... as TheA.
As to middle names, I'd say, the simpler the beter. I'm no fan of Bella or Belle in general, but Tay-a Bella, kind of sounds to me like Italian restaurant. lol Maybe Lynn, Jean, Anne, or Marie.
