Elimination Game part 2

Girl Names
1

Please eliminate ONE name combination from each pair. Would be lovely if you could justify your decision.

We have decided on [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] or [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] as middle name to honor my mum.

[name_f]Anouk[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Frida[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

[name_f]Oona[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

[name_f]Tulip[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

I would eliminate [name_f]Anouk[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] from the first set, because I think [name_f]Anouk[/name_f] could have pronunciation difficulties, and [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] from the second set, because [name_u]Robin[/name_u] doesn’t feel as fresh as [name_f]Lola[/name_f] and [name_u]Indigo[/name_u]. It’s much harder to eliminate one from the third set. I feel like [name_f]Tulip[/name_f] is very nice and unexpected like [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], so I do like it and feel like it fits in with your other kids, but it doesn’t seem like it has any nickname options (not sure if that’s a positive or a negative for you), and I don’t suppose it would really matter with the last name added in, but the initials are TB (as in tuberculosis). So… I think I’d have to eliminate [name_f]Tulip[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] has a better flow anyway!

Eliminated: [name_f]Anouk[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_m]Reason[/name_m]: [name_f]AnouK[/name_f] BEEtrice has no fluid rhythm.
Kept: [name_f]Frida[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

Kept: [name_f]Oona[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
Eliminated: [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_m]Reason[/name_m]: [name_u]Robin[/name_u] is incredibly dated and drags down the vintage class of [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], turning into the combo one would expect to see on a middle-aged lady.

Eliminated: [name_f]Tulip[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_m]Reason[/name_m]: Hard consonants on the end of names NEVER sound good next to [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]/trice names. Stick with open -a or -ie or even -n sounds.
Kept: [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

[name_f]Frida[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Oona[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. [name_f]Frida[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] is my fave :slight_smile:

The ones in bold are the ones I like :slight_smile:

[name_f]Anouk[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Frida[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

[name_f]Anouk[/name_f] looks hard to pronounce, and isn’t very common.

[name_f]Oona[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

[name_f]Oona[/name_f] is less common than [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and seems to fit more with [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]'s vibe.

[name_f]Tulip[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

I always hear [name_f]Tulip[/name_f] as “two-lip” so I just don’t like the name.
