@elanorelle, I would name you [name_f]Nathalie[/name_f] [name_f]Marianne[/name_f].
explanation
You are a very elegant person and I wanted to reflect that quality in this name. [name_f]Nathalie[/name_f], with its “Christmas” meaning, reminds me of War and [name_u]Peace[/name_u], imperial Russian winters, [name_m]Black[/name_m] [name_u]Swan[/name_u], and [name_f]Tippi[/name_f] Hedren (her birth name!) and it lends to the nickname [name_f]Natasha[/name_f] which I know you mentioned is a name that fits you well. I also felt that while [name_f]Nathalie[/name_f] suits you, [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] (with same pronunciation) doesn’t as much!
[name_f]Marianne[/name_f] is a variant of [name_u]Marie[/name_u], which ties into The Nutcracker – and a nod to your love of the name [name_f]Clara[/name_f]! I also thought you would appreciate the Sense and Sensibility connection.
@katkabet, I would name you [name_f]Yeva[/name_f] [name_u]Lior[/name_u].
explanation
I chose this name primarily for its meanings “life” and “light.” You are the embodiment of life and light and I know that “light” especially is something you appreciate in name meanings. [name_f]Yeva[/name_f] I cannot explain beyond the fact that you look so much like a [name_f]Yeva[/name_f] to me! It’s a little more grounded than [name_f]Eva[/name_f] and reminds me of pearls, golden bangles, and aprons with sunflowers (and maybe Ievan polkka too ).
The combo is very yellow to me, maybe because the sounds of “yellow” are all there!
@EleanorVintage, I would name you [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemarie[/name_f].
explanation
I don’t know if [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] is your name, but you seem so much like an [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] to me and I don’t think I could find a name that fits better! I really loved reading your description and you seem like such an interesting and introspective person who could pull off just about any name with grace. I wanted something that could work in [name_f]English[/name_f] and [name_u]French[/name_u] and that feels rose-toned, elegant and girly, and I seriously considered [name_u]Jeanne[/name_u] (with [name_u]French[/name_u] pronunciation) and [name_f]Claire[/name_f], but ended up choosing [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] for its light elegance. [name_f]Rosemarie[/name_f] is the ultimate rose-toned name and includes a subtle ballet reference with [name_u]Marie[/name_u] (The Nutcracker)
@planetnames, I would name you [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] Itxaro.
explanation
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f] is an old soul, introspective sort of name to me, and it fits your physical description perfectly. I think of warm, neutral colors like the ones in your profile picture, and the “light academia” aesthetic. I think it fits best with the “nah-oh-mee” pronunciation. And the meaning “pleasantness” combined with Itxaro “hope” feels perfect for an optimist with your mindset.
Itxaro I chose primarily for its meaning, but it’s also a very cool name to me with the -o ending and the Basque origin. You seem like an incredibly cool person with your sense of aesthetics, and I think of you as quite the trendsetter with your name taste! It seems like names you start talking about quickly catch on with the rest of us.
I really wanted [name_f]Inès[/name_f] for you, but I tried to avoid it because it is in your user card! I chose the two names that made me most think of [name_f]Inès[/name_f] and all of the qualities (old soul, elegant, optimist, effortlessly cool) that it embodies.
@hannahhh, I would name you Agnès [name_f]Marsaili[/name_f] [name_f]April[/name_f].
explanation
You are such an Agnès (ah-nyehs) to me! Your kind nature, your “grandma” clothing style, your screenwriter aspirations (reminds me of filmmaker Agnès Varda!), and your [name_u]French[/name_u] study made me immediately think of this name. I also love that you could still go by [name_f]Annie[/name_f].
[name_f]Marsaili[/name_f] is a subtle [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] [name_m]Swift[/name_m] reference (form of Marjorie). I wanted to include at least one Scottish name, but I also have little knowledge of Scottish names so I hope this one isn’t horribly dated!
[name_f]April[/name_f] is (of course) for [name_f]April[/name_f] Ludgate in [name_m]Parks[/name_m] and Rec!
