[name_m]Just[/name_m] gathering my lists and changing some things. I was hoping for some opinions on my list. What kinda style does it say to you? Images? Any suggestions? Whatever really, just thoughts and be brutal! I can handle it.
Girls:
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] - colette honors my sister [name_f]Nicole[/name_f] and [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] is my middle name (K for swedish heritage)
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] - fiancee’s name is [name_m]Justin[/name_m] and I like how it shares meaning with [name_f]Verity[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Evanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] - [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is a family name
Boys:
[name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m] - [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m] is my dad’s name
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] - [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] is my cousin
[name_u]Carson[/name_u] [name_m]Luke[/name_m] - fiancee’s stepdad is [name_m]Luke[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_u]River[/name_u] [name_m]Justin[/name_m] - [name_m]Justin[/name_m] is my fiancee’s name
obviously I love honoring family, but if you think of any other combos or suggestions feel free to switch them around. Tell me whatcha think!
I love that you love honoring family! It’s so nice.
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f]: I actually really like this! It had a sweet, yet spunky feel. I really like the K in the front, I’m a huge fan of Swedish & Scandinavian (etc) names.
[name_f]Nicole[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f]: I like this too!
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]: lovely & sweet.
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Evanna[/name_f]: pretty.
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]: I’m not a huge fan of [name_f]Grace[/name_f] in the middle, or [name_f]Ros[/name_f]- names either. [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] is pretty though.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]: I like this. [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] is one of the few G names I like.
[name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m]: I like the spunky flow of this, it makes me think of [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Johnson[/name_m].
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m]: [name_m]Leo[/name_m] is nice, I have never been a fan of [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] though. But the names are great together.
[name_u]Carson[/name_u] [name_m]Luke[/name_m]: I’m not a huge fan of [name_u]Carson[/name_u], but again, the names are really nice together.
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]: Great!
[name_u]River[/name_u] [name_m]Justin[/name_m]: this is really nice too.
My favourites out of your picks are [name_f]Colette[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f], [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Evanna[/name_f] & [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m].
I love everything on your list except [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. I’ve just never cared for that name. As a middle it isn’t bad, perhaps [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. Besides that, I find it hard to pick a favorite, they are all good names.
Thanks guys! I’m so glad my list is getting positive vibes
@jasmine.lee: it’s so funny you say [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] cause my name’s [name_f]Emily[/name_f] and I was sooo close to being [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] until my sister was all “then we’d have to blow up basil (our dog) and paint her red to match my book clifford!” lol. That’s when I became [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f].
Any other ideas berries!? I’d love suggestions on names that sound great with [name_m]Justin[/name_m] as a middle. Or or orrr ways to honor [name_m]Richard[/name_m] because I despise it as a name and my fiancee loves it because it is his dad’s and his middle. meh.
Also, any imagery? Pictures of little blonde babies running around or maybe some athletes or one of them quietly reading a book for hours, what do you guys see for these names?
Your style seems kind of similar to mine, so I might be biased, but I love all of your names!
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] - [name_f]Colette[/name_f] is cute, but it does kind of remind me of a colon. Other than that, I think it sounds very [name_m]French[/name_m] and high class!
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Verity[/name_f] is a nice name! Though I tend to like virtue names since my name is [name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Evanna[/name_f] - I really like [name_f]Alice[/name_f], and as I’m typing this I’m actually watching [name_f]Alice[/name_f] in Wonderland! About [name_f]Evanna[/name_f], it reminds me of the Disney show ‘The Suite Life of [name_m]Zack[/name_m] and [name_u]Cody[/name_u]’ because a character had a fancy purse dog named [name_f]Evanna[/name_f]… Can’t really imagine it on a person.
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]! It’s adorable and has TONS of nickname options. I also love [name_f]Grace[/name_f] because that’s my sister’s name!
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] - [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is a family name - I love this! [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] is cute and I’ve always loved the name [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f].
@faithnamer: oh my god I never realized that [name_f]Evanna[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivanna[/name_f] were the same name. I think I pronounce them differently though. Like [name_f]Evanna[/name_f] is Ee-van-uh and [name_f]Ivanna[/name_f] is Ih-vaughn-na. I don’t know if that makes sense to anyone but me though haha.
thank you! I think [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] is such a good twist on the typical [name_f]Jenna[/name_f] which I’ve always loved. I also think [name_f]Gem[/name_f] is an adorable nn
Any other thoughts on what y’all imagine a little [name_f]Colette[/name_f], [name_f]Mabel[/name_f], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], or [name_f]Gem[/name_f] would be like? Or maybe one of the boys…
Wow, what a fabulous list of names, girls name especially!!
Here are some thoughts:
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] - I love the name [name_f]Colette[/name_f]. I think this is a great name overall.
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] - [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] is very cute; another name I love. A great combo as well.
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Evanna[/name_f] - I like the classic feel of [name_f]Alice[/name_f], but I really don’t like the nickname “[name_f]Ally[/name_f]”, so I tend to shy away from this name. The combo together is beautiful though.
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] - I like [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] too, but I feel like it is rising quickly in popularity, so that is something I personally would want to look into…but again a great combo.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] - Ahhh I love love love [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]! I think it is unique and special but not “out there”. [name_f]Gem[/name_f] is the cutest nickname too!! And [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is classic enough to balance out the modern feel of [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]. My favorite from your girls list.
[name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m] - I like the quick punchiness of this name. And I love alliterative names, so this name has a special place in my heart :-p
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] - I love [name_m]Leo[/name_m]! I personally worry about the rising popularity of it though.
[name_u]Carson[/name_u] [name_m]Luke[/name_m] - I [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] this name. I love [name_u]Carson[/name_u] and [name_u]Carter[/name_u] for boys. They seem masculine and fresh. [name_u]Carson[/name_u] [name_m]Luke[/name_m] is great. My favorite name from your boys list.
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] - [name_m]Felix[/name_m] is a little too far out there for me personally; not my favorite.
[name_u]River[/name_u] [name_m]Justin[/name_m] - I don’t like this name so much, I think [name_u]River[/name_u] is too much of a “word name” to really be a name…
As far as how I imagine people with these names to be, here are some more thoughts:
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] I picture as a girl with curly blonde hair who laughs all the time.
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] is quiet, shy, smart with a big heart.
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] is a beautiful bookworm.
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] has a big personality and loves to be the center of attention. She has long dark hair.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] is beautiful, full of life, a good friend and a “jill of all trades”
[name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m] is the star of the high school football team.
[name_u]Carson[/name_u] [name_m]Luke[/name_m] is handsome and gets along with everyone, but still has a shy side.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] my first instincts, hope that helps!!!
Thanks so much! I’m surprised by your favorites from the list, ours are [name_f]Colette[/name_f] and [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. I don’t really like [name_u]River[/name_u] either but I have been trying to find something that works with [name_m]Justin[/name_m] in the middle, it’s just not working haha. I love your images too!! I see [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] as being that really sweet, everyone likes her kind of gal
