Antonia- It’s okay, not my personal style so I don’t love it
[name_f]Athena[/name_f]- [name_u]Love[/name_u] love this name!
[name_f]Melina[/name_f]- Again, not my personal style
[name_u]Olivia[/name_u]- I love this name! However, it’s super popular where I live
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f]- I like this name, I don’t really see it used much
Since they all end in the -a sound I probably wouldn’t pair any of them together for a full name. Maybe [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] as a sibling pair.
Thank you! I should probably add we have 3 daughters already and I just had my youngest in [name_u]November[/name_u]. I was so sure I was done and now I can’t stop thinking about another girl, . I don’t know why I can’t be content? Anyways their names are [name_f]Miranda[/name_f] middle name ends in e, [name_f]Marina[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f], and [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is what we chose. [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_f]Melina[/name_f] would probably be middle names. However I’d want #4 to be double A endings to round out the sibset.
Your girls names are very sweet. I would personally avoid [name_f]Melina[/name_f] since it rhymes with [name_f]Marina[/name_f] and starts with the same letter. That being said, since [name_f]Miranda[/name_f] and [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] (if you pronounce it ann not ahn) share ending sounds, I think [name_f]Athena[/name_f], which rhymes with [name_f]Marina[/name_f], would be a cute way to round out the sibset.
Stylistically, I think [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] would be perfect!!!
My favorite is [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f]; I don’t hear it used as much as I used to, but it has history and it’s so pretty! I like the sound of [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] [name_f]Melina[/name_f].
Thank you! Yes we pronounce it like ann not ahn. Like [name_f]Miranda[/name_f]. Essentially both [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_f]Melina[/name_f] rhyme with [name_f]Marina[/name_f] so I was trying to be fine with using them as middle names. Although I do love how [name_f]Athena[/name_f] sounds with the sibset. Dh originally said no to [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] and [name_f]Athena[/name_f]. We were going to name our 2 month old [name_u]Olivia[/name_u]. I just didn’t like how popular it is.
Thank you ! They’re all beautiful names. I’ve been obsessed with [name_f]Athena[/name_f] this time around, but I love [name_f]Melina[/name_f] and [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] too. I could see us naming her [name_u]Olivia[/name_u], [name_f]Melina[/name_f], or [name_f]Athena[/name_f]. More [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] or [name_f]Melina[/name_f], but I do love [name_u]Antonia[/name_u]. I know how close [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_f]Melina[/name_f] are to [name_f]Marina[/name_f] though so I was hoping to fall in love with a double A first and middle name set that flows as well as [name_f]Marina[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] without it sounding awkward.
I went with all 3 names because they’re uncommon, but familiar. Although I had quite a few people who didn’t know how to pronounce [name_f]Marina[/name_f] just reading it. She was going to be [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] though. [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] [name_f]Melina[/name_f] is pretty. Dh originally said no to [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f].
What would you pick for their sister? If it follows a pattern my oldest daughter has blue eyes like her dad, my middle daughter had dark eyes I think either green hazel or hazel eyes. [name_f]My[/name_f] youngest daughter has blue eyes too like their dad so the 4th could potentially have green hazel eyes too. I have green hazel eyes. They look more olive or moss color.
Hmm…
[name_u]Antonia[/name_u] ~ this is a strong graceful name that has a clunky vintage feel similar to [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f]. It’s not a favourite of mine but I can definitely see the appeal in [name_u]Antonia[/name_u]. I think in the middle name slot a name that doesn’t end/begin with an A would be good. I don’t think any names on your list would work as a middle name.
Suggestions:
[name_u]Antonia[/name_u] [name_f]Christina[/name_f]
[name_u]Antonia[/name_u] [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_u]Antonia[/name_u] [name_f]Lena[/name_f]
Athena ~ I really like [name_f]Athena[/name_f] it’s another strong girls name that feels powerful and majestic. She has lovely mythological references and is pretty. I think [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] would be pretty.
Melina ~ this is pretty I love the nature association with bees and honey I think it’s a pretty name. I don’t think from the list [name_f]Melina[/name_f] would work with any of the names on here.
Suggestions:
[name_f]Melina[/name_f] [name_f]Roxana[/name_f]
[name_f]Melina[/name_f] [name_f]Alma[/name_f]
[name_f]Melina[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f]
Olivia ~ I can see the appeal in [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] it’s pretty and has cute nicknames but personally I find [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] in the first name slot predictable it’s just very overused. I think [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] is pretty or [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] [name_f]Athena[/name_f] could work.
Vanessa ~ never been a fan of [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] and I don’t see the appeal in the name either
Suggestions:
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] [name_f]Lilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] [name_f]Gabriella[/name_f]
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] [name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_u]Antonia[/name_u] - A lovely name, if not a little dated
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] - A wonderful name! Such a great association and an amazing sound. By far my favorite of these names
[name_f]Melina[/name_f] - Not a fan, but [name_u]Mel[/name_u] is a cute nickname
[name_u]Olivia[/name_u] - Great name, but very common
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] - Also not a fan, but [name_f]Nessa[/name_f]/Essa is a cute nickname
I like [name_f]Melina[/name_f] [name_f]Vanessa[/name_f] and [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_u]Olivia[/name_u] :))
