Does [name]Astrid[/name] [name]Esther[/name] sound strange to you? [name]Esther[/name] is an important name to use and we just love the name [name]Astrid[/name] because of the meaning and nn [name]Atti[/name]. We’re also loving [name]Ingrid[/name], [name]Marigold[/name] nn [name]Goldie[/name] and [name]Serena[/name].
It doesn’t sound strange, but I think the names are too similar and there’s too much of that “s” sound too close together. [name]Ingrid[/name] [name]Esther[/name] sounds much better to me.
Honestly, I had a hard time getting the combo of [name]Astrid[/name] [name]Esther[/name] out of my mouth correctly! I like both names, however, and adore (I just suggested this name to someone else today, in fact!)–[name]Marigold[/name]. [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Esther[/name] flows much, much better, [name]IMO[/name]!!
I also think the names [name]Marigold[/name] & [name]Esther[/name] somehow complement each other better (in style, I think, and looks) than [name]Astrid[/name] & [name]Esther[/name] do together.
