esme: es-me/ez-me
vali: vuh-lee/va-li (rhymes with bali)
Ooo I really love your naming style!
Stand out first names are; [name_f]Pia[/name_f], [name_f]Elke[/name_f], [name_f]Estelle[/name_f], [name_f]Jolie[/name_f]. Very exciting to see them!
Not really a fan of; [name_f]Lexa[/name_f], [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] and [name_f]Kallan[/name_f]
My fav combos:
[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] is so classy, smooth and slightly magical. I prefer the ez-me pronunciation
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] - I imagine this girl will end up working in the fashion industry. Strong and fancy
[name_f]Pia[/name_f] [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] - [name_f]Pia[/name_f] is so sweet! [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] toughens her up but also adds femininity. I think this combo could suit many different personalities
I’m not sure if this is what you mean by imagery, or if you meant only about the girl herself, but I hope this helps!
[name_f]Elke[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] - I imagine a scene in the woods - not a clearing, but being surrounded by tall, leafy trees and endless green all around you.
[name_u]Sage[/name_u] [name_f]Tatiana[/name_f] - witchy stuff; not in a Satan way! In a connected to the earth, magical, nature orientated way.
[name_f]Vali[/name_f] [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] - Valkyrie comes to mind; a strong, fearless warrior.
[name_f]Luana[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] - a lily pond, with beautiful pink flowers on the green leaves, with clear blue water.
[name_f]Elke[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] -reminds me of rugged mountains and cosy jumpers. I like it. A nice mix of soft and harder sounds
[name_f]Pia[/name_f] [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] - feels autumnal bur fresh. I quite like it though the flow is a tiny bit off for me. [name_f]Pia[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] or [name_f]Pia[/name_f] [name_f]Gwendoline[/name_f] came to mind. Or [name_f]Peony[/name_f] [name_f]Gwen[/name_f]
[name_u]Sage[/name_u] [name_f]Tatiana[/name_f] -earthy, a little magical and mystical. I like it. It feels wise, literary and quirky
[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Serafina[/name_f] -celestial and bright -reminds me of stars and gemstones. I like it, sleek and pretty
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] -reminds me of city streets, shopping and ribbons. I really like it! [name_u]Bright[/name_u], fashionable and distinctive
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f] - vintage, charming, makes me think of blue skies and open fields
[name_f]Vali[/name_f] [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] - reminds me of beaches, palm trees and sunsets. [name_f]Vali[/name_f] [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] feels fresh and hip
[name_f]Luana[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] - floral, reminds me of waterlillies. There’s a nice delicacy to it though it does remind me of [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Luna[/name_f] from [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] -not a big deal though
[name_f]Luana[/name_f] [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] - there’s still that delicate, floral imagery, with added rugged stones and cascading water. I like it a lot
[name_f]Lexa[/name_f] [name_f]Scotland[/name_f] - imagery of hills and mist. I quite like it though i find it slightly hard to say
[name_f]Lexa[/name_f] [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] - gives me imagery of libraries, type writes and scarves. I like it -something upbeat and sweet about it
[name_f]Jolie[/name_f] [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] - summery, light and vibrant. A nice mix of classic and cute
[name_u]Monroe[/name_u] [name_f]Alessia[/name_f] [name_u]Parker[/name_u] - unexpected and interesting!
[name_f]Kallan[/name_f] [name_f]Sofia[/name_f] [name_u]Winslow[/name_u] - reminds me of waterfalls for some reason. I quite enjoy it
elke helena - [name_u]Love[/name_u] this! [name_f]Elke[/name_f] has always felt sweet and winter-y to me, and [name_f]Helena[/name_f] adds an elegance to that image.
pia guinevere - Not gonna lie, [name_f]Pia[/name_f] with the middle name [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f]… Well, it makes me think of “guinea pig”. Not necessarily a bad thing though! I dislike [name_f]Pia[/name_f] but I really like the fancier and longer [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] with it. Makes me think of someone spunky and a bit classy.
sage tatiana - This is a very unexpected combo, in my opinion. [name_u]Sage[/name_u] is modern, spunky and short. [name_f]Tatiana[/name_f] is long, unique, and I find it a bit dated (but it could be a cultural thing, I’m from Greece and I know two Tatianas over 35). Not bad though!
esme serafina - A bit of a Victorian era vibe. Plus it sounds like someone sweet and smart. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] combo, one of my favorites.
estelle vivienne - I adore [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]. Crazy chic. Brings to mind a cunning [name_m]French[/name_m] woman from the 20’s or something fun like that!
margot belle - I don’t love how this one sounds, though I think both names are great. I’d personally pick a longer middle name for [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the imagery though, big Southern belle vibes!
vali cassandra - Not a fan of this one. [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] feels dated to me and I don’t care for [name_f]Vali[/name_f]. I’d like it better as [name_f]Valley[/name_f] [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] but I’m guessing you have your reasons for using [name_f]Vali[/name_f] instead.
luana lily - A bit L-heavy but I don’t mind. It’s a very spring-like combo, makes me think of flowers and dresses.
luana frankie - Fun, but I prefer [name_f]Luana[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. This one’s spunkier with an international vibe.
lexa scotland/wilhelmina - I really don’t like [name_f]Lexa[/name_f] [name_f]Scotland[/name_f]. [name_f]Lexa[/name_f] feels kinda dated to me (because of how popular [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] “[name_u]Lexie[/name_u]” used to be) and though I think [name_f]Scotland[/name_f] can work as a middle name it just doesn’t do it for me here. [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] is much better, it turns [name_f]Lexa[/name_f] from dated-ish to elegant.
jolie susannah - Not gonna lie, I just think of [name_f]Angelina[/name_f] [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] when it comes to [name_f]Jolie[/name_f]. But I doubt a kid born today would know her when they’re old enough to care! Plus, though it doesn’t need nicknames, [name_u]Joey[/name_u]/[name_f]Joy[/name_f] and [name_u]Jo[/name_u]-[name_u]Jo[/name_u] are really cute. [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]'s stunning! I think of someone fun and friendly.
monroe alessia parker and kallan sofia winslow- My least favorite combos. They feel very modern, which isn’t bad, but I’m worried they might feel very dated in 20 or 30 years. I’d assume a [name_f]Kallan[/name_f] was male.
[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
Here are my thoughts:
elke helena-I kind of like it. It’s unique, but fits in w/other common names like [name_f]Ella[/name_f]. I picture a little blonde girl w/braids in the Alps.
pia guinevere-Oh, I don’t think I’d do this one. I feel like teasing is unavoidable with ‘pee’ as the beginning of the name. [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] is my #1 favorite name ever though!
sage tatiana-This is okay. It’s not my personal favorite, but I don’t hate it. I know a spunky little [name_u]Sage[/name_u]. It gives me a bit of a hippy vibe, but not in a bad way. I just don’t personally love the sound of it.
esme serafina-I love [name_f]Esme[/name_f]! It’s very elegant, but has just the right amount of spunk. [name_f]Serafina[/name_f] is not my favorite. I think it’s a personal association though. The combo as a whole is a little ‘s’ heavy. [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] would be absolutely stunning. [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] is also gorgeous.
estelle vivienne-This is beautiful. It has such a great Frenchy vibe. [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] is smart, quiet, kind and a go getter.
margot belle-This is cute. I like most names w/a ‘[name_f]Belle[/name_f]’ afterwards. It sounds very sweet. I feel like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is getting really popular though; or at least trending that way.
vali cassandra-Not sure about this. I think it’s a little confusing, & doesn’t look complete. [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] nn [name_f]Vali[/name_f] maybe?
luana lily-This is okay. Cute combo, because it seems very botanical picturing [name_m]Hawaii[/name_m] & a lily flower. [name_f]Luana[/name_f] reminds me of [name_f]Moana[/name_f]. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the movie, but I just don’t love the name.
luana frankie-[name_f]Luana[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] is much nicer in my opinion. [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is okay as a nn, but not a stand alone mn.
lexa scotland-Meh. I don’t care for [name_f]Lexa[/name_f]. It seems incomplete, & just reminds me of the car [name_u]Lexus[/name_u].
lexa wilhelmina. I like the [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] part! That’s lovely, & has so many great nn options.
jolie susannah.-Not my personal favorite, but cute combo.
monroe alessia parker-Meh. This sounds trendy & not very feminine.
kallan sofia winslow-This seems a little masculine to me. [name_m]Just[/name_m] sort of trendy falling into the whole [name_f]Kailyn[/name_f]/[name_f]Kaylin[/name_f] group. The mns are pretty.
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. 
thanks everyone for your response! it is great to see how everyone interprets things and i wanted to leave it open to see the mixed response!
little addition to the sig. any more imagery or feedback is welcome!
[name_f]Saskia[/name_f] [name_f]Ffion[/name_f] is rugged and lovely - it makes me think of mountains and hilltops, swinging high on a swing, and running free.
It’s strong, breezy and sweet
