3-2?

We just watched Theatre Camp last night (absolutely deranged movie, highly recommend, and I can’t get the final song outta my head), and I think the lead characters have grand names: [name_u]Amos[/name_u] and [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f]-[name_f]Diane[/name_f]!

I love a double barreled first, especially with longer names. Following the pattern of 3 syllables hyphenated with 2 syllables (a la Rebecca-Diane), what names would you choose? For characters, kids, yourself… anything!

I like…

Matilda-Sarah, Caroline-Elise, and Beatrice-Phoebe for a girl
+
Theodore-Robin, Nathaniel-Robert, and Gideon-Otis for a boy
…off the top of my head!

I watched Theatre Camp recently too!! It put [name_u]Amos[/name_u] back on my radar!

Usually for a double barreled name I go for my beloved Anne-Gabrielle but for a 3-2 d-b name I would choose:

Georgia-Edith
Delilah-Juno

Theodore-Felix
Percival-Oscar

Georgia-Edith is so beautiful @whimsyberry. I absolutely love :star_struck:

And yes, [name_u]Amos[/name_u]! What a great name! (And a great brother to [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], [name_f]Edith[/name_f], or Georgia-Edith.)
