Middle names for Alma?
My first name is Alma, but I have an extremely boring middle name - Yang. It's basically just my Chinese name. So, what do you all think would be good middle names for Alma?
Personally I like Alma Iliana, but I can't really think of any others.

I love Alma! I like Alma Iliana, but I agree with the earlier poster who said that it was kind of l-heavy.

My best friend's mn is her Chinese name too. Anne Wan-Qing. I've always thought it was pretty cool.
I assume you're just asking us in fun and you're not thinking of changing it legally, right? In that spirit, how about:
Alma Celeste (heavenly soul)
Alma Josephine
Alma Sophie
Alma Gervaise
Alma Germaine
Alma Bryony
Alma Willow
Alma Sonnet
Alma Wren
Alma Charlotte
Alma Noor (too elegant for any mere mortal -- use with extreme care)
Alma Coral
Alma Juniper
Alma Aurelia ("o-RAY-lee-uh")
Alma Sylvia
Alma Virginia
Alma Julia
By the way, I love the name Alma. It's similar to another favorite, Alba. Are you pronouncing it with an "ah" sound at the beginning, or an "a" sound? Just curious. (I used the "ah" version in the combos above.)

What does Yang mean? I'd look at names with similar meanings; that could be really pretty.
I'm not sure what it means. It's written a bit like 'goat' in Chinese, but I'm pretty sure that's not what it means xD

I love Alma! Lucky you ;) Alma Iliana is nice and not too much of a mouthful of L’s. I don’t really know your tastes but going from your profile:
Alma Harriette
Alma Guinevere
Alma Penelope*
Others not from your list:
Alma Louisa
Alma Imogen*
Alma Clarice
Alma Claire
It really depends on what you really like and what fits you the most. :)

I like all your suggestions, except Alma Clarice. It's just not really my style :)
