Honest opinions on my list please

[name]Hi[/name],
Please can you have a look at my girls list and honestly tell me what you think. I will explain each name. It has truly taken me ages to compile this list and find middle names that really mean something to me :slight_smile:
Thanks so much,
[name]Ellie[/name] xx

[name]Willa[/name] [name]Angeline[/name] (on-jel-een) (say it with a French accent!)- I utterly adore [name]Willa[/name], it is just so perfect [name]IMO[/name]. [name]Angeline[/name] has a French connection which is important to me as my Gran was a French teacher and my family has a lot of links to [name]France[/name]. [name]Angeline[/name] is also a character in the book I’m writing.

[name]Rosa[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]- I love [name]Rosa[/name], it’s [name]IMO[/name] a more femenine form of [name]Rose[/name], it is also linked to [name]Rose[/name] [name]Quartz[/name], which is my special stone (yeah sounds weird I know!). [name]Genevieve[/name] is very very pretty and also has the French and book character connection for me.

[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Adora[/name]- [name]Genevieve[/name] same as above. [name]Adora[/name] is so pretty and femenine and I love names related to love.

[name]India[/name] [name]Amethyst[/name]- I love [name]India[/name], especially as it reminds me of a little girl that I used to read to, who I loved, who was called [name]India[/name]. [name]Amethyst[/name] is for my mum, who’s special stone is [name]Amethyst[/name] (I’ve been taught that everyone has a special gemstone)

[name]Ashlyn[/name] [name]Marina[/name]- I love [name]Ashlyn[/name] because I love both [name]Ash[/name] and lyn and together they are perfect. You might want me to spell it [name]Aisling[/name], but in the UK at least it would always get pronounced ash-ling. [name]Marina[/name] is for my dad who is a keen sailor and lover of the sea.

[name]Alana[/name] [name]Claire[/name]- I love the way [name]Alana[/name] looks and sounds, but I hate the nn [name]Lana[/name] and [name]Lani[/name]. [name]Claire[/name] is related to the one thing I really like about my name, [name]Eleanor[/name], which is that I have the same name as my ancestor, [name]Eleanor[/name] of Aquitaine. [name]Eleanor[/name] means bright, clear and [name]Claire[/name] has a similar meaning. Also [name]Claire[/name] is literary for me from the Time Travellers Wife, although that’s spelt [name]Clare[/name].

[name]Sybil[/name] [name]Hannah[/name]- I love [name]Sybil[/name] and [name]Sybil[/name] was my favourite character from Downton [name]Abbey[/name] (so sad!) but I loved it before I ever watched it. It’s just so pretty. [name]Hannah[/name] (this is going to sound weird!) is the name I call all of the characters I make up in my head (yep that sounded weird!) it’s a name that’s really close to my heart. When I was little I wanted 3 daughters called [name]Holly[/name], [name]Hannah[/name] and [name]Crystal[/name].

[name]Bianca[/name] [name]Love[/name]- [name]Bianca[/name] is very pretty and I like the nn B. [name]Love[/name], well, I love. I’d like to use it as a first, but I know that would be ridiculous. I love names that have meanings to do with love e.g [name]Adora[/name], [name]Valentina[/name] and especially [name]Love[/name].

[name]Amber[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]- Some people think that [name]Amber[/name] is dated, but I really don’t, I think it’s pretty and underused. [name]Felicity[/name] is gorgeous and airy and also is similar to the character in my book, [name]Felicia[/name].

[name]Honor[/name] [name]Eponine[/name]- [name]Honor[/name] is my favourite virtue name, I think it’s gorgeous and will age well and despite its spelling, it seems very English for some reason! I’m a HUGE [name]Les[/name] Mis fan, so [name]Eponine[/name] is for that, because edge is my favourite character and there is a literary, musical and French connection.

[name]Fallon[/name] [name]Paige[/name]- I’ve loved [name]Fallon[/name] ever since I heard it on the Archers (a British radio soap) and I think it’s so pretty and actually quite femenine. [name]Paige[/name] is for my love of both reading and writing as in pages of a book.

hello,

think you’ve picked some beautiful alternative names…I think willa, rosa, and alana are the nicest…willa rosa, or willa alana sound lovely together. if you wanted advice on the name pairing you have decided I would go with the first one tho, willa angeline, it sounds very feminine and unique.

[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Adora[/name]- pretty, I like this one very much

[name]Rosa[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]- this is pretty, I like this combo a lot even though the flow isn’t perfect. [name]Genevieve[/name] is one of my favourites as well.

[name]Alana[/name] [name]Claire[/name]- I like [name]Claire[/name] a lot. [name]Alana[/name] is okay, but not really my style. What about [name]Claire[/name] [name]Marina[/name] or [name]Claire[/name] [name]Bianca[/name]?

[name]Bianca[/name] [name]Love[/name]- I really like [name]Bianca[/name]. [name]Love[/name] is very literal, but not terrible. [name]Bianca[/name] [name]Felicity[/name] would be pretty.

[name]Willa[/name] [name]Angeline[/name]- I like [name]Willa[/name], not sure I like it with [name]Angeline[/name]. [name]Willa[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]?

[name]Amber[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]- I don’t mind [name]Amber[/name], but it’s a little heavy with 2 word names. [name]Amber[/name] [name]Claire[/name]?

[name]Sybil[/name] [name]Hannah[/name]- the flow of this doesn’t really work. I don’t mind either name though. [name]Sybil[/name] [name]Marina[/name]? [name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Hannah[/name]? [name]Sybil[/name] [name]Angeline[/name]?

[name]Ashlyn[/name] [name]Marina[/name]- I like [name]Marina[/name] a lot, I really don’t like [name]Ashlyn[/name]. At all.

[name]Honor[/name] [name]Eponine[/name]- I don’t mind [name]Honor[/name], but I don’t feel like it works in this combination. It feels like you’re saying “I want to honor [name]Eponine[/name]”. What about [name]Honora[/name] or [name]Honoria[/name]? Or something like [name]Clara[/name] [name]Honor[/name] or [name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Honor[/name].

[name]Fallon[/name] [name]Paige[/name]- really not fond of [name]Fallon[/name]. At all. sorry. [name]Paige[/name] is a nice middle though.

[name]India[/name] [name]Amethyst[/name] - way too much. This would be a great name for an [name]Agatha[/name] [name]Christie[/name] novel. Not a good name for a person.

[name]Rosa[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Fallon[/name] [name]Paige[/name] are my favorites from your list. Absolutely beautiful!

I like [name]Willa[/name] [name]Angeline[/name], [name]Rosa[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Amber[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]
