A Cluster of Combos

Playing with combos, because it looks like I won’t be getting any sleep tonight. :upside_down_face:

Any in particular you would absolutely cross off or any you enjoy?

I’ve left our surname in the combo list because I think it helps to get the full flow? So I might come back to edit it out for the sake of privacy should we ever use any of these.

[name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Velma[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Nadine[/name_f] [name_f]Annemarie[/name_f]

Overall, my favourite names are [name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] and [name_f]Heidi[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]!

If I could mix-and-match some names, I’d also love [name_f]Lettie[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] and [name_f]Heidi[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f].

Combos I’d lose:
[name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] & [name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] – I like alliteration sometimes but I don’t like how it sounds here
[name_f]Heidi[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] - I think the 2 names run into each other
Lucelia [name_f]Anne[/name_f] - Same as above, it sounds like saying Lucelianne
[name_f]Lucette[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] - I just don’t like the flow of this, I’d pick a one-syllable or three-syllable name as a middle for [name_f]Lucette[/name_f]
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Fae[/name_f] & [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Faith[/name_f] & Frah [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] - I don’t mind the alliteration of [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Francine[/name_f], but the other F middles feel a bit too cutesy with [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] in my opinion
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f] & [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] - Same issue as Lucelia [name_f]Anne[/name_f]
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] Rheanne & [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Renee[/name_f] & [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_m]Reece[/name_m] - The -rah Re- sounds are a bit of a tongue twister to me here
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Sloane[/name_f] - I don’t think it flows as nicely as the rest
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] - Too many L sounds maybe
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] - Again the issue of the first name running into [name_f]Anne[/name_f], I’d like it more as [name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] - I don’t like the rhyming -th endings
[name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Jeanne[/name_f] - I also don’t like the rhyming endings here
[name_f]Velma[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] & [name_f]Velma[/name_f] [name_f]Annemarie[/name_f] - [name_f]Velma[/name_f] is already quite a retro name so although I love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] & [name_f]Annemarie[/name_f], I’d pick a more on-trend middle to balance out Velma’s retro feel
[name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Beth[/name_f] - Sounds too much like [name_f]Annabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] - I don’t like the repeating “van” sounds

I especially like:
[name_f]Heidi[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]
Lucelia [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
Lucelia [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucette[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] [name_f]Nadine[/name_f]

I don’t think any of them are bad, though I guess my least favorites would be the ones that kind of rhyme or repeat a sound – [name_f]Nadine[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f], etc, even though I like all of those individual names.

These are all so pretty! [name_f]My[/name_f] favorites of each set:
[name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] & [name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Nadine[/name_f]
[name_f]Heidi[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]
Lucelia [name_f]Grace[/name_f], Lucelia [name_f]Joyce[/name_f]
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f], [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Lettie[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Lettie[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] [name_f]Nadine[/name_f]
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] & [name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Velma[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Velma[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_f]Nadine[/name_f] [name_f]Annemarie[/name_f]

Ones I would cross off:
[name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] & [name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] (bc of the repeating “elle” sounds)
Lucelia [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] (the “cel” & “stel” sounds are too similar for me)
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Roselle[/name_f], [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] Rheanne, [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Renee[/name_f], [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_m]Reece[/name_m] (the -rah ending & Re- beginnings blend together)
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Maribel[/name_f] & [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] (repeating “elle” sounds)
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] (“bith” & “blythe” make it tongue twistery)
[name_f]Vanna[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] (too much “van”)

Thoughtful feedback as always, thank you!
