Bridging analytical & free-flowing

I need help finding girl names for a couple in one of my stories. The husband is very analytical and the wife is very go with the flow, fun loving type (their MBTI’s are husband - INTJ and wife - ENFJ, if that helps you at all). The husband like very straightforward, “boring”, classics (like [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], [name_f]Jane[/name_f]) and the wife like more unusual, fun, and (very) somewhat frilly names (like [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Celia[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f] - though I wouldn’t call [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] “frilly”). I did find two perfect compromises - [name_f]Violet[/name_f] & [name_f]Eve[/name_f]/[name_f]Eva[/name_f] (I know [name_f]Eve[/name_f] and [name_f]Eva[/name_f] seem more straightforward, but they still felt right). However, their dog is named [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and I’m not changing that & can’t use [name_f]Eve[/name_f] for other reasons in the book. The closest I’ve come is [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], but [name_f]Nora[/name_f] just isn’t quite striking enough I didn’t think and I just used [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] in another story & don’t want to repeat names - it also doesn’t feel right for them. For boys, I think [name_m]Graham[/name_m] is a good fit, so it’s more girl names I’m having an issue with at the moment.

Sorry for the poor spelling + grammar in this post, I’m just trying to get it out fast. My OCD may make me fix it at a later time, lol.

Thank you so much for your help!

My first thoughts were [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] and [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]. They’re very classic, but I also see them as spunky, fun, and youthful. Other ideas:
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Julia[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Diana[/name_f]
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f]

Names that came to mind:

[name_f]Elora[/name_f]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Livvy[/name_f])
[name_f]Cynthia[/name_f]
[name_f]Anna[/name_f] / [name_f]Anne[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsie[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] / [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f]
[name_f]Nova[/name_f]

I really like [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_f]Alice[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] from PP

[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]/[name_f]Lucille[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]/[name_f]Florence[/name_f]

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] is a great suggestion!

Thank you :slight_smile:
