I love double names. [name]Anna[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] would be my pick, but [name]Ava[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] is lovely too. [name]Anna[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] just feels so natural though. Some of the other names lower on the list just don’t work as double names in my opinion, I doubt people would say both names every time.

[name]Anna[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] is the most natural as a double-barrel. I think all the others sound a bit forced

Double-barrel names work best if the first ends in a vowel sound. [name]Eve[/name], [name]Elle[/name] and [name]Elise[/name] don’t. [name]Julia[/name] does, but it makes the whole name a somewhat unwieldy six syllables.

[name]Anna[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] is my pick. It reminds me of [name]Anastasia[/name]. Or the Greek version of a little girl in my daughter’s grade; [name]Ah[/name]- na - sta -si- a.
