I have never liked my given name, Amanda Lynn and I want to change it (even if it's unofficial. It's so expensive, especially in Florida which is where I live. Paperwork filing alone is over $400).

What middle names would fit me? I don't want to use any part of my current name as my new middle and I don't care for Marie or Grace. I love Rose and Elizabeth; I just prefer something less common.
My last name is McDonald.
Helena is pronounced Hel-ay-na.
