Re: Althea
in reply to a message by whim
I think Althea Joy's wonderful and I don't consider Joy a filler at all. I actually think in the US Joy is less popular as a middle name than Kate and Lily. Honoring your mother would be nice, but I'd go with the name you love and using a virtue name will never get flack for not honoring in the middle name slot the same way a non-virtue name might.

I don't really mind how popular a middle name is. Sure, it's nice for it to be unique but in the long run the love of a name is what matters to me.
You can't really argue about a virtue name!
Thanks!
