Alice Wenonah

What do you think of this combo? My grandmother is Alice Winona, and I’ve always wanted a little Alice. Who doesn’t? But this alternate spelling, Wenonah, hits the right notes for me. Thoughts?

It would supplant Alice Virginia. Virginia is after my great grandmother, Virgie Estelle.

It’s pretty! I actually really like this spelling! It’s also a bit more exciting than [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Virginia[/name_f], and I think a middle name with an alternative spelling is less of a hassle than a first name with an alternative spelling. It’s a great honour name, but you’re also putting your own spin on it. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it!

Much prefer the spelling [name_f]Winona[/name_f]. It just looks nicer to me. But as a middle name it can be anything you like no problem so go for it.

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Wenonah[/name_f] is pretty!

I’m not really one for using someone’s full name as an honor, but in spite of that, [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Wenonah[/name_f] is very pretty!

[name_f]Lovely[/name_f] name!

i think that alice virginia & alice wenonah are both lovely! i do think that “winona” and “virginia” look better with alice because they share more vowels, so on those grounds i’d prefer virginia as a middle, but i think that when said out loud wenonah flows slightly better.

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Wenonah[/name_f] is pretty and bit spunky! And congrats on finding a spelling that you love! :revolving_hearts:
