I love [name_f]Briar[/name_f] with [name_f]Aria[/name_f] and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f]!

[name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] is lovely. I like [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] too but not as into [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] as it is very dramatic and wordy to me. A few ideas…

[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Summer[/name_f]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] (for [name_u]July[/name_u])
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Apolline[/name_f] (for [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] sun god)
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Twyla[/name_f]

This is a hard choice since both choices are very different!
I personally prefer [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] over [name_f]Briar[/name_f], but I think [name_f]Briar[/name_f] sound so lovely with [name_f]Aria[/name_f] and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Briar[/name_f]! It fits well with [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] and [name_f]Aria[/name_f] [name_f]IMO[/name_f]

6

I like [name_f]Briar[/name_f], just because I think pronunciation will be easier

7

I love [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f]!

I find [name_f]Briar[/name_f] and [name_f]Aria[/name_f] a little too similar for siblings, although I do love [name_f]Briar[/name_f], otherwise. I know it’s not on your list, but my personal favourite would be [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f]. :slight_smile:

[name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] is beatuiful!!

Both are awesome combos! I voted [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] just because I really enjoy names that begin with the X/Z sound, but I wish you could use both.

10

I prefer [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] over [name_f]Briar[/name_f], and [name_f]Briar[/name_f] is quite similar to [name_f]Aria[/name_f], but [name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] goes better with your other daughters’ names (and definitely does sound like a fairy, much like your other daughters!)

11

I much prefer [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f], although I prefer [name_f]Faye[/name_f] as a middle. She’s bright, fun, and energetic, which I love. I’m not a fan of [name_f]Briar[/name_f].

Both lovely. I prefer [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] overall, but agree that [name_f]Briar[/name_f] is beyond perfect with those sister names!

I personally find the combo of [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] a bit too spiky and deliberately “edgy”, even though I like both names separately. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Briar[/name_f] or [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] to soften things up a bit?
