Girl names that go with Antonia?

I am struggling to find a girl’s name that complements [name_f]Antonia[/name_f]. I want something that is traditional but not popular ([name_f]Antonia[/name_f] is outside of the top 1000), that is serious without being boring (my “could this be the name of a head of state” test) and that sits comfortably within the styles of old lady chic/names ready for restoration/quirky British aristocrat. So far my top contenders are:

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Claudia[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]

Please help! I feel like at this point I’ve got name blindness.

I think [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Claudia[/name_f] are the best.

Favorites are:

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] & [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] but for a head of state I’d go [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] & [name_f]Claudia[/name_f] - these sound great together

Suggestions:
[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] & [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] & [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u]

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] are perfect together.

I also like:
[name_f]Edith[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Geneva[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgina[/name_f]

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] is a great name! It’s going to be hard to find a name that is so strong and beautiful but not overly popular. Of your list I think [name_f]Claudia[/name_f] or [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] are the best pick. [name_f]Cora[/name_f] is crazy popular where I live and I think it’s going to keep going up. (old fashioned names are big in my neighborhood). I really like [name_f]Jemima[/name_f] but I think it’s a no go in the US but I can’t say about other places.

[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Henrietta[/name_f], [name_f]Agatha[/name_f], [name_f]Philippa[/name_f], [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_f]Thomasina[/name_f], [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f], [name_f]Gillian[/name_f], [name_f]Verity[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f], [name_f]Romilly[/name_f]. Or [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], I think it’s a great not too popular choice that I think sounds really lovely with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f].

[name_m]How[/name_m] about Teadora? I love that name and it sounds swoony with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f]! Other options might be [name_f]Niobe[/name_f] (this name was on that series [name_m]ROME[/name_m] and I loved it…kind of like a [name_f]Naomi[/name_f]/phoebe smoosh!), Rosenwyn, [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f], [name_f]Susannah[/name_f], [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f], or [name_f]Sapphira[/name_f]! Good luck!

From your list I really like [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Jemima[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_f]Claudia[/name_f], and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] (and lovely combination-- [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]).

@adelina [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] is actually an [name_f]Annie[/name_f], so we definitely would like a vintage nn option with this one, too.

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] are great together!

My favourite is [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]. I would also suggest Antonia Elle and Antonia Claudine.

I’ve always thought [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_f]Ramona[/name_f], and [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] went really well with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f].

My favourite name with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] is [name_f]Willa[/name_f]. From your list I like [name_f]Josephine[/name_f].

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f]

@ anyagreenwich I love [name_f]Willa[/name_f]. Would you go with a longform, or just [name_f]Willa[/name_f]? I’m feeling Wilhelmina today.

@adelina and tiannarose [name_f]Leonie[/name_f] is a guilty pleasure name, but I worry about pronunciation problems. I prefer [name_m]LAY[/name_m]-oh-nee, but worry she’d get lee-OH-nee.
