Thank you everyone!
@cms1512 - thanks girl! I’m intrigued by Azenor and she could be a family name, but since Grace is too, I’m not sure I want to pair them together… but I’ll have to keep her in mind!
@Victory55 - thanks girl! I know you didn’t suggest it, but I’m sort of having a moment with Valencia, and I like Grace Valencia a lot! Your suggestion of Valentina reminded me of her. I also am crushing hard on Alexandrina, but I don’t know that I love Grace Alexandrina together? Maybe I need something in between, like Grace Mira Alexandrina? I don’t know that I love that but I like it more than Grace Alexandrina. I’ll have to give her some thought!
@VEL - Grace Odilia Lily is not out by a long shot… I love the story of St. Odilia and I love that the combo is bookended by honor names for both my grandmas. I am just exploring other options at this point, but I still think Grace Odilia Lily is a special combo. I love Eulalie and Grace Eulalie has definite possibilities! Fiorella/Fioralba/Fiora and Amada, too. Amada is so cool and Grace Amada is lovely! Love Olivet in theory but I’m not sure about with Grace.
@kitkat - I don’t know that I agree, I think some of your suggestions feel a bit more showy than Odilia/Odelia, but thanks for your thoughts anyway. I like Grace Guinevere a lot but I want to read more King Arthur before committing to her. I don’t love Celeste but the more elaborate Celestina intrigues me with Grace.
@greyblue - thanks girl. I am intrigued by Grace Indigo, but don’t think I’d ever use it. My first thought with Indigo is the bookstore chain in Canada
. I also love the idea of a Mira name with Grace… not sure which one yet… I do sort of like Grace Mira Alexandrina though. And Kezia! I love her but I don’t even know if I like her with Grace; I can’t seem to find a combo I truly like her in, for shame. Love seeing Eliska too but I don’t know that I love her.
@EdgeOfTheMeadow - thanks girl! I am loving Grace Camellia! How beautiful. Blythe is lovely too but maybe too virtuous with Grace? Ariadne and Antigone are making me think of Arianthe which I’ve been crushing on lately… I think I like Grace Arianthe but I’m not sure I want to hide Arianthe as a middle name, tbh!
Lots to think about, but I think right now Alexandrina, Amada, Arianthe, Camellia, Celestina, Eulalie, Mira, and Valencia are my favorites. Would love any other ideas you have! Also wondering about Grace Romy but I don’t know that the flow is great lol.
