I’m curious as to what people think about Eve-Claire. I like it because [name]Claire[/name] honors my dad and brother, and the 1-1 flow is reminiscent of my grandmother’s name ([name]Ruth[/name] [name]Mae[/name]), and it has a simple, airy, straightforward appeal to me. I absolutely love the nn [name]Evie[/name], too.
[name]How[/name] do you think it works with [name]Isabelle[/name], [name]Arianne[/name], [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Rachel[/name], [name]Daphne[/name], [name]Magda[/name], [name]Hannah[/name], [name]Eleni[/name], [name]Eliska[/name], [name]Liliana[/name], [name]Lydia[/name], etc.? Any MN ideas? I’ve been tossing around [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Sofia[/name]…
She would probably be called éclair, but I find it a charming nickname. I like the previous suggestion of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Annabella[/name].
I like it! I think I would prefer [name]Eva[/name] [name]Claire[/name] but I still really like the airy simplicity of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name]. I would go with a longer MN to combat the 1-1 rhythm. Maybe:
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Seraphina[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Giovanna[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Jessamine[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Johannah[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Natalia[/name] (maybe too close to your sisters name though)
I also love PPs suggestion of Eclair as a NN, just adorable!!!
I agree that [name]Eva[/name] -[name]Claire[/name] has better flow… and I also second that it sounds like éclair (the doughnut)… but like @[name]Villette[/name] said… it could be kinda cute!
I agree with the [name]Eva[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] suggestion as it is 2:1 rather than 1:1.
[name]Eva[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Juliette[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Eva[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Anastasia[/name] [name]Skye[/name]
[name]Eva[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Louisa[/name] [name]Mae[/name]
lol, well, the 1-1 syllable flow is kind of the point, as a slight nod to my grandmother. I don’t mind [name]Eva[/name] but I definitely wouldn’t use it for my daughter. It would definitely just be [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name].
I love your suggestion of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Seraphina[/name], though! I always love [name]Seraphina[/name] but never know where to put it. I also like [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Giovanna[/name], which would be a family name. I was considering that, and [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Rebecca[/name], before anyone even said anything.
@saracita00 - I love the idea of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Lillian[/name], too! [name]Lily[/name] names honor my [name]Ruth[/name] [name]Mae[/name] grandmother, so I’m quite partial to them. As I was posting it I was thinking that I liked the idea of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] Li- something or other but I couldn’t really pin down which I liked best. I’m also quite fond of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Lilibet[/name].
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] sounds like a name of a fairy or an elf! It definitely goes well with your favourite names!
[name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Lilibet[/name] would be my pick if I had to choose the middle name. It’s just so gorgeous. [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Seraphina[/name] is really nice as well. Good luck!
I’m between [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] (both nn [name]Evie[/name]) for a spot on my list, but I like that [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] has more significance, and it’s definitely less-known.
I liked [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Angelina[/name] and [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Anastasia[/name], but not quite as much as these…
[name]Ash[/name], I swear you and I are writing circles around each other with names : D. Reminds me of my [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Rose[/name] thread a while ago - and I get what you mean about 1-1 being the point, and love what another poster said about names like this being a fairy-like name! So true!
Speaking of [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Lillian[/name] (nice!), what about [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name]? If [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] is the one for you, then good, but I am liking [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name] and may have to think more about it! : D
Thanks, @jesba! I like the idea behind [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name] but it doesn’t sound as good to me as [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] for some reason. [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] did remind me of your [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Rose[/name] name–I thought about it as soon as I started getting the “[name]Eva[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] flows better!” suggestions, haha. I would like [name]Lily[/name]-[name]Eve[/name] more than [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name], but I think [name]Lily[/name]-[name]Eve[/name] is a bit hard to say with the repeated “EE” sounds.
I like [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name] as an idea for you, though–it might be a nice mix between [name]Lily[/name] that your SO loves and the [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Rose[/name] that you love.
I agree with you about [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name] / [name]Lily[/name]-[name]Eve[/name] : D!!! Darned bumping vowels!
I’ll keep [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Lily[/name] on the backburner!
My vote definitely goes too [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Seraphina[/name]! I like [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Giovanna[/name] but just not quite as much, but very close, as [name]Eve[/name]-[name]Claire[/name] [name]Seraphina[/name].
