One Syllable Middles

I've talked before about how one syllable middle names are a favourite of mine at the moment. I'm not the only one. Many one syllable middles are traditionally popular or recently seem to be everywhere. It's no wonder really as they sound snappy and cute in the middle spot, especially if the child has a longer first name. A recent example would be the newest royal baby born to Mike Tindall and Zara Phillips, a little girl called Mia Grace. 

Below I have listed one syllable middles in two lists for each gender: traditional or popular middles and less common examples. I like both lists; it's nice to have an original name but some of the classics sound lovely.
