For a while now, I’ve really been struggling with my lists, and really feeling like I LOVE everything on them. I like to keep a top 20 for each gender, but only have about 10 names I’m committed to on each list at the moment. What ten names would you add to my list to complement these? I do have a handful I’m considering, but want to withhold them for now to see what other names people come up with.
[name_f]My[/name_f] current list:
[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]/Isobel _____ [name_f]Grace[/name_f] (quite torn on the [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] vs. [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] front, but anyways)
[name_f]Adele[/name_f] [name_f]Petra[/name_f] [name_f]Christiana[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Dagny[/name_u] [name_u]Louise[/name_u] “[name_f]Eva[/name_f]”
[name_f]Vera[/name_f] [Eliane]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Tirzah[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] _____ _____
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] _____/Zoe _____ [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] Lærke [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
I’m sharing MNs here to give a sense of my own style, but please don’t feel the need to suggest combos at this point–my process for coming up with combos is ah… very particular, lol, and it’s more useful for me to rummage about, combo-making, in my own timing. So how about it, berries? What are your ten perfect suggestions to complement these?
I really like the sound of [name_f]Vera[/name_f] [name_f]Eliane[/name_f].
I have a feeling some names I suggest you may have considered before, but regardless, I would add:
Eliza
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Esther[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Nola[/name_f] (not sure if this is considered usable in the US, but she’s the perfect sister to [name_f]Vera[/name_f] in my eyes)
[name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Melody[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
@EagleEyes - very interesting to see the names you see me using! Gwendolyn and maybe Alice are my favorites from your suggestions; I also like Norah but not necessarily up front.
@irisph - Thank you very much! Celia isn’t a favorite, but Cecilia is a huge love. I would consider Amelie and Sabrina (as MNs), too.
@Greyblue - thank you, love! If not for Isobel, Arabella would be an easy favorite! I also like Julia (which Juliana reminded me of), Ruth (as a mn), Eliza (totally a contender, despite Isobel), and Lydia (which is probably one of my middles for Violet).
@grackym - Hi Grace! Thank you! Eliza’s definitely my favorite of your suggestions, but I would consider Lucia, Esther, Sophia/Sophie, Amalia/Amelie, Alice, and Ivy, in some way, even if not up front.
@VEL - Thank you! My nephew is Ol!ver so I’m not sure how usable Olivia is to me now, despite the fact that she’s been a love for over a decade now. Mira, Liliana, and Eleni are maybes.
Thank you! I do like [name_f]Bridie[/name_f] ([name_f]Brigid[/name_f] even more!), but most of those aren’t my style, unfortunately. I might use [name_f]Ines[/name_f] or [name_u]Florentine[/name_u] as middles one day, but they’re not really my thing, sadly. Thank you for trying though!
