I’d go with [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f]. It still feels natural but is less likely to raise eyebrows if she has to give her full name on a job application.
I like [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] as well. It sounds classy and cool, and would age well while still retaining the meaning that you’re going for. [name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower and [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f] both sound childish.
Thanks for the feedback berries! I myself am more drawn to [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] while DH adores [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f]. Another name I’ve been thinking about a lot for middle name is [name_f]Clementine[/name_f].
What do you all think of [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]?
I love [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] but I prefer [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] than to [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]. [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] is just so spunky and ethereal, and goes great with your other kiddo’s names. [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] has a soft classy elegance but I think [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] is perfect.
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] is a beautiful name! Maria Sunflower is another really pretty name, and it fits well with your other children’s names!
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] is also very cute
Oh my goodness, [name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower is gorgeous! I also really love [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f], but I think [name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower is perfect.
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] is nice, but feels a little bit of a letdown after [name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower, to me. I think [name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower has that same beautiful feel that all your other kids’ names have, and it works so well all by itself, too!
I had [name_f]Marie[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] on my list (don’t reckon I’ll get to use it) so [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] just pops out at me. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it.
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] Sunflower is charming and unexpected.
[name_f]Sunshine[/name_f] doesn’t grab me the same way.
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] doesn’t appeal to me as much as soft-C [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] or Celandine.
