Holly Jean vs. Holly Anne vs. Holly Joy

What is the best middle name for Holly? All are family names. Also considering: Holly Grace, or Holly Lynn, or Holly Lianne. Notes for each: Holly Jean sounds slightly southern which I am not, but I kind of like it? Holly Anne- I'm slightly concerned about the initials HAH but they could grow on me. Holly Joy sounds a bit christmasy but at the same time it's super subtle and very cute. Would love your thoughts! Thanks!

Also please note:
Anne is for my mother so it would be the most significant.
Joy is short for Joyce which is my Grandma's Middle name.
And Jean is the middle name of a stillborn my grandma had which I think would be a great tribute to her as well.
Grace is my sister and Lynda is my gma's first name.

Lianne would be a combo of my Mom Anne, Aunt-in-law Linda and Grandma Lynda all combined.

Holly Anne is my pick to honour your mother. I don't mind the HAH initials.

I think Holly Anne is the sweetest option! I also feel that Hollyanne or Hollyanna would be nice as a first name, too!

I think HAH initials are fine but I voted for Holly Jean.

I like Holly Anne and would stay away from Lynne, Lynda or Lianne since it has the same sound as the -ly in Holly. I don't think the HAH initials are a problem. My second choice would be Holly Joy

First name doesn't flow last name. Super boring middle names except Lianne.

Holly Anne got my vote! I really love it. Holly Joy is sweet too.

I voted for Holly Jean, but after reading the Anne is after your mom, I change my vote to Holly Anne. That would be a sweet tribute and it's a very cute name. I do love Holly Grace too.
