Of yours, I would choose:Ingrid Susannah & Helena Mary
I wouldn’t pair any of these Ingrid, but if I had to choose I’d choose Mary. Ingrid Susannah & Mary Sophia, I like that the middle names start with the same letter :) If I could ‘adjust’ the names: Thea & Ingrid
Thora & Ingrid
Elin & Ingrid / Helga & Ingrid
Miriam & Ingrid / Maria & Ingrid
Helena is ok I guess.
Not a fan of Sophia or Mary at all as middle names, in general, or with any of the listed names... which makes it a bit difficult. Unless honouring or chosen for a special reason, which is more than fair, these are poster-children for filler middle names. If the former, I'm still not a fan but fair enough, no more said... if the latter, sorry but I dislike all combos quite a bit.
I don't think that Sophia or Mary are poster-children for filler middle names. They're common names, but they're not really known as being filler middle names like Marie, Rose, and Lynn are for example.
Dorothea...yuck!
I love Victoria Helene.
Ooh, I love Dorothea. I think it's such an intelligent name (probably thanks to Middlemarch!) and goes beautifully with Ingrid Susannah. Dorothea Mary is perfect.
Dorothea Mary
Given your options, if you want a slightly more unique name, Dorothea Sophia or Helena Mary might be the best picks. If you’re leaning toward something more classic and regal, Victoria Sophia or Victoria Mary could be perfect.
Victoria Mary. Though I'd prefer Helen (not Helena) Sophia.
As a teenager I was friends with sisters named Ingrid and Mary, although Mary was the older one, so I’m partial to that. Otherwise, I think Helena goes well as a first name.
I'd opt for Dorothea Mary or Helena Sophia.
