Gwendolen & Sibyl: Dueling Names

Hello, Berries!

Well, I am down to a lonely two girls names, [name]Gwendolen[/name] and [name]Sibyl[/name].
I adore these two names, and I am happy to have these after the husband’s slash and burn job on my list.

I am playing around with the pairings for middle names… here is my list:

[name]Athena[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Lucinda[/name]

(This list consists 2 personal favorites, one husband’s pick never-going-to-use-as-a-first-name name, and 2 family tree gems.)

So! What combinations do you like?

Also, do you have any suggestions that seem to fit? I am sure we all feel like we have seen it all! We plan on not repeating first initials in the family, so no M, L, V, or K names, however it is open season on middle names. Last name begins with an E for monogram worriers.

My current girls’ names are below. I would like to point out that [name]Kirsten[/name] is a family name, and I would say overall may not fit into my ‘style’ per say. (However, it is funny how absolutely in love with the name I am now, the perfect name for my quiet firecracker, but that is another post entirely…)

So, lay it on me! :smiley:

I really like [name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Helena[/name] and [name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Athena[/name]. Other ideas:

[name]Faye[/name]
[name]Felicia[/name]
[name]Gloria[/name]
Gloriana
[name]Opal[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name]
[name]Phylicia[/name]
[name]Reina[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]
[name]Twila[/name]
[name]Winola[/name]

With [name]Gwendolen[/name], my favorites are [name]Athena[/name] and [name]Louisa[/name]. With [name]Sibyl[/name], I also like [name]Athena[/name], as well as [name]Genevieve[/name] - I would avoid the two L names here, since the ending L of [name]Sibyl[/name] kind of smushes into it.

Some more ideas:

[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Bettina[/name]
[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Cecile[/name]
[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Eve[/name]

[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Constance[/name]
[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Marguerite[/name]
[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Odette[/name]

Best of luck! :slight_smile:

I would do:

[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Minerva[/name] & [name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Maeve[/name]

With the initial rules in place:

[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name]

[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Athena[/name] and [name]Sybil[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name].

I really like [name]Gwendolyn[/name] [name]Louisa[/name] but [name]Gwendolyn[/name] [name]Lucinda[/name] is my favorite. I am not a fan of the name [name]Sybil[/name] so pairing tha tis a bit harder for me but [name]Sybil[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name] sounds nice.

[name]Both[/name] of these names are utterly gorgeous! I’m not sure I could pick, they are both so lovely :slight_smile:

[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Louisa[/name] and [name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Athena[/name]

[name]Love[/name] both names, altho I do prefer the spellings [name]Gwendolyn[/name] and [name]Sybil[/name].

I love the name [name]Gwendolen[/name] :slight_smile:

[name]Gwendolen[/name] [name]Helena[/name] sounds amazing! I prefer the len ending over the lyn ending. It seems less trendy and more traditional.
I like [name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Lucinda[/name].

[name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Helena[/name] and [name]Sibyl[/name] [name]Athena[/name] are my favourites.

I agree with this. :slight_smile:
