Arizona Camilla
Arizona Patricia

Does she have a connection to Arizona, or does she just like the sound? Perhaps she'd like Ariana or Ariela instead.

---

I would avoid any word names, especially if they're nature names. Arizona Sky, Arizona Grace, Arizona Lily... they all sound like romance novels that probably involve a dashing cowboy.

---

I'd stick to something classic to balance the uniqueness (for lack of a better word):
Arizona Charlotte
Arizona Catherine
Arizona Mary
Arizona Therese
Arizona Helen

Arizona Esmé
Arizona Ffion
Arizona Jane
Arizona Lily
Arizona Lucy
Arizona Phoebe
Arizona Sophie
Arizona Tamsin

I've been to Arizona. I'll take my inspiration from the flowers and cacti there:

---

Arizona Claret
Arizona Claire
Arizona Glory
Arizona Datura
Arizona Primrose
Arizona Yucca
Arizona Paloverde
Arizona Cholla (pr. CHOY-uh)
Arizona Mesquite (pr. mess-KEE-tay)
Arizona Bisbee
Arizona Holly
Arizona Willow
Arizona Ocotillo (oh-koh-TEE-yo)
Arizona Senita
Arizona Marigold
Arizona Theresa

I don't like Arizona for a human, but at least it has an easy nickname, Ari (unlike some other state names that would be difficult to shorten into something namey).

---

I don't necessarily like all of these but I think they'd all work in some way:

---

Arizona Julia
Arizona Hestia
Arizona Halina
Arizona June
Arizona Kate
Arizona Megan
Arizona Denna
Arizona Lark
Arizona Maggie
Arizona Stephanie
Arizona Helene
Arizona Therese
Arizona Callie
Arizona Ursa
Arizona Ulla
Arizona Safira
Arizona Emily
Arizona Skyla
Arizona Kylie
Arizona Martina
Arizona May
Arizona Evie

Sky sounds about as much like filler to me as Rose or May would...it seems in the same style, short and wordy.

Arizona Autumn
Arizona Sage
Arizona Phoenix
Arizona Blossom
Arizona Serenity
Arizona Ruby
Arizona Lavender
Arizona Fawn

Arizona Pauline

Arizona Penelope
Arizona Eponine
Arizona Rosalind
Arizona Juniper
Arizona Cassiopeia
Arizona Lyric
Arizona Phoebe
Arizona Eden

---

I think my favorites of those are Arizona Penelope and Arizona Eden. I like Arizona Camille and Arizona Tesni most, from the other suggestions.

I wouldnt use Arizona Sky, sounds like a description

---

Claire, Faith, Hope, Joy, Paige, Kate, Chelsea, Katherine, Josephine, Bridget, Camille, Katelyn, Celeste, Emily, Charlotte, Kathleen, Laura, Kirsten, Kristen, Lauren, Megan, Taryn, Tegan, Caroline, Olivia, Sophie, Lucy, Felicity, Evelyn, Genevieve, Vivienne, Gabrielle, Isabelle, Abigail, Juliet, Naomi, Natalie

I know you say she loves the name, but you didn’t mention if she was 100% set on it. If there is any room for advice or suggestions I’d try to give some, as Arizona does not strike me as a great name for a person.

---

If she is set, however, I would steer completely clear of word names. Otherwise she’ll end up sounding like an exotic local food or a motel or a euphemism. And just aesthetically, I probably wouldn’t start or end the middle name with an A, to avoid repetitive sounds. What about

Strongly vote against Sky. Sounds like a phrase not a name. May as well use Arizona Tea.

---

But I do think simple and sweet is a good way to go.

---

Arizona Ciel (if she wants to keep the sky meaning)
Arizona Cleo
Arizona Elle (maybe too fillery?)
Arizona Elise
Arizona Esther
Arizona Eve (I really like this one)
Arizona Kyrie
Arizona Liv (I think this one is pretty cute)
Arizona Lucy
Arizona Maeve
Arizona Sylvie
Arizona Tamar
Arizona Tesni
Arizona Wendy

Arizona is a terrible name for a human being, Arizona sky is even worse.

Ooh I love Arizona Sky! It’s a pretty image.

I’d also suggest...

Arizona Lark
Arizona Saffron
