Your opinions on the name [name_f]Apollonia[/name_f]? I found about it today, when my best friend told me this was her friend’s middle name. It’s spelled differently here though (Apolonija), but pronounced the same.
Anyway, do you like it? Can you suggest any middle names to go with it?

I love it!
[name_f]Apolline[/name_f] is a name on my own list and there are so many cute nicknames!
I love pp’s suggestions of [name_f]Apollonia[/name_f] [name_f]Neve[/name_f], [name_f]Apollonia[/name_f] [name_f]Gemina[/name_f] and [name_f]Apollonia[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
I find it long for a first name but it would be nice in the middle spot.
I think it’s pretty. I like how you can get the nickname [name_f]Polly[/name_f]/Polla from it. Or even [name_f]Apple[/name_f] - that’d be pretty cool! (Polony might be a step in the other direction, though!)

For the past 7 years, I have been living a country that was a former Portuguese colony, so there are a lot of Portuguese names around. I’ve met one [name_f]Apolonia[/name_f], so it seems pretty wearable to me. She’s tough and no-nonsense, and well-liked. I can see it being a lot more of a challenge in the US where it’s almost unheard of however.
For middle names, my association with it being a Portuguese name is pretty strong, so I’d be inclined to use a Latin-based name as a middle:
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] Teresina or [name_f]Therese[/name_f]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalen[/name_f]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] Armandina
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] [name_m]Isadore[/name_m]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] [name_f]Olinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f] Carme
