I had decided upon [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] as a middle name for [name_f]Athena[/name_f] a few months back, and while I absolutely love it in theory, it is feeling a bit lacklustre recently. It may be due to the -lind sound at the end. Otherwise, I think it would be perfect.
The obvious alternatives, [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f], are sweet but are not as good as [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]. [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] is also another of my favourites. Both are filled with meaning to me, but I don’t think they go together. Same with [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]. They are worlds apart to me. [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] is strong but wouldn’t be my first choice. I had [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] on my list sometime ago, but it doesn’t match with the rest of my list. [name_u]Rumi[/name_u] is charming but also not a fit (sadly). Náttsól is beautiful but would prove to be a problem on it’s own.
So, I have got [name_f]Esmeray[/name_f], [name_f]Morrigan[/name_f] & [name_u]Nyx[/name_u] as probably alternatives to [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] as a middle name for [name_f]Athena[/name_f]. Based on these, what else would you suggest? I am open to anything and everything. Thank you!
