Looking for some creative ways to honour both my grandmothers, [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_u]Marion[/name_u] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], within one name.
So far, I’ve got;
Maud (combining letters of [name_u]Marion[/name_u] and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f])
[name_f]May[/name_f] ([name_f]Audrey[/name_f]’s middle name, and a nickname for [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], of which [name_u]Marion[/name_u] is a derivative)
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] (nod to [name_u]Marion[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f])
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] (the meaning of [name_f]Margaret[/name_f])
I think these are all great ideas!
[name_f]Mae[/name_f] (For [name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_u]Marion[/name_u])
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] (again, [name_u]Marion[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f])
[name_f]Magdalen[/name_f] (A bit of all 4)
[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] ([name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u])
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] ([name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u])
[name_f]Evie[/name_f] ([name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f])
[name_u]Love[/name_u] this! It works perfectly, and is such a smart way of combining the two names. Honestly, I don’t think I can come up with any idea better than this one.
The only one I’d add is [name_f]Mary[/name_f] because it feels like a reverse combo of the names, **[name_f]Mar[/name_f]**ion and [name_f]Audre[/name_f]y.
Oh, I second @tallemaja’s suggestion of [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]! That’s a good combo of [name_f]May[/name_f] & [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] – perfect idea!
Magdalen (it’s got most of the sounds)
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] nn [name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelyn[/name_f]/Adeline/Audelyn ([name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u])
Love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_f]Maud[/name_f]
Maeve for [name_u]Marion[/name_u] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Marilyn[/name_f] for [name_u]Marion[/name_u] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Maren[/name_f] from [name_u]Marion[/name_u]
[name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] from [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Reya [/name_f]from [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Adrianne[/name_f] for [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_u]Marion[/name_u]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] from [name_f]May[/name_f], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_u]Marion[/name_u]
[name_f]Maura[/name_f] for [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_u]Marion[/name_u]
[name_f]Aura[/name_f] from [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_u]Mallory[/name_u] for [name_u]Marion[/name_u], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_f]May[/name_f]

Maeve/Maeva/Esme - anything with the “may” sound works well I think! You could also do Rosamay/Rosemee/Anna-[name_f]Mae[/name_f], etc.
[name_u]Noble[/name_u] - [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] means [name_u]Noble[/name_u], so if you want a more androgynous/masculine virtue name, [name_u]Noble[/name_u] might work well? Sounds a lot like [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] so I think it could work.
[name_f]Mary[/name_f]/Maria/Marie/Rosemary/Rosemarie/Manon/Malou - literally any form of [name_f]Mary[/name_f] would work lol.
[name_f]Eve[/name_f]/Evie/Evelina/Evangeline/Evadne/Evanthe
I like the idea of other [name_f]Mar[/name_f]- names, too! There’s also [name_f]Mared[/name_f], [name_f]Maris[/name_f], [name_f]Maren[/name_f], [name_f]Marina[/name_f], [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Marilla[/name_f], etc.!
It might be a bit far fetched but ‘[name_f]Lulu[/name_f]’ means [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] which, as you said, is the meaning of [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] also! And it’s super cute
Thank you all so much! Such amazing responses!! So very appreciative! [name_f]Lot[/name_f]’s of options to work with! I especially love [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]! Also really loving;
