[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all, I’m working through my girl’s list and trying to narrow down which combos I like best. Today’s name is [name_f]Lara[/name_f]. I am pronouncing [name_f]Lara[/name_f] as LAR-uh (first syllable like Lars) although I do like the LAIR-uh pronunciation as well. I do find the name slightly peanut buttery in the mouth, but not enough to put me off. Therefore I’m looking for a name that balances out that slight awkwardness and fits with Lara’s cool, laidback vibe.
Which ones are your favorites? Which don’t work at all? Rank them from fave to least fave, make a love/like/lose list, any input works! Thank you!
The frontrunner
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] - Honestly, I pulled this combo from some random person who commented on a Facebook post in a group I’m in. It grabbed me straight away for some reason. I don’t even have [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] on my list (although I have many other [name_u]Chris[/name_u]- names) but I really like the German/Scandinavian vibe of this combo (although I am pronouncing [name_f]Kristine[/name_f] the [name_f]English[/name_f] way, with 2 syllables). [name_f]My[/name_f] concern is that… is this combo too plain?
The contenders
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_f]Celine[/name_f] - sleek and pretty, but I am considering [name_f]Celine[/name_f] as a middle for a few other names already
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_u]Holly[/name_u] - I think these names just fit together. Like this combo just goes. But, does it sound good? I think [name_u]Holly[/name_u] actually makes [name_f]Lara[/name_f] a little bit more peanut buttery. I want the combo to work but I’m not sure if it does.
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_f]Misty[/name_f] - Idc, I find [name_f]Misty[/name_f] cute, fun, and fresh.
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_u]Promise[/name_u] - I have had [name_u]Promise[/name_u] on my list for a long time but honestly I am considering taking it off. It’s almost a bit cheesy as a name to me now. But I can’t deny that this combo sounds good.
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] - Honestly didn’t think much of this one until writing this post and realized it actually sounds really good.
