I like [name]Thais[/name] [name]Martha[/name] [name]Lily[/name]-- the unusual but so pretty fn with the traditional and girly mns make it a great combination! [name]Hazel[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] has the too similar sounds back to back, so the [name]Iris[/name] combo would be my second favorite (but way behind [name]Thais[/name]).

Combo Ratings

1 [name]Thais[/name] [name]Martha[/name] [name]Lily[/name] - Unusual blend of mythological, vintage and nature names.
2 [name]Hazel[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Wren[/name] - the repetitive “el” isn’t ideal but the combo flows well.
3 [name]Iris[/name] [name]Ailsa[/name] [name]May[/name] - Too many s’s and [name]Iris[/name] [name]Ailsa[/name] runs into each other.
3 [name]Tess[/name] [name]Rosamund[/name] Fiene - The first two names are ok but again have “s” sounds. I’m not feeling Fiene at all.

Thank you for all votes so far. I’m leaning towards [name]Iris[/name] at the moment.
Also, I understand [name]Thais[/name] can be pronounced either ta-EES or [name]TAY[/name]-is (my prn), but do you think [name]Tea[/name] is an acceptable nickname? For a child, anyway.

@mischa
I think faint acoustic echoes must be my ‘style’. :rolleyes:

[name]Tess[/name]'s combo is my favorite. :slight_smile: I really love [name]Tess[/name], too, it’s probably my favorite of your FNs. I really like [name]Iris[/name], too, but I don’t love the combo…

Good luck!

Thanks! :smiley: [name]Iris[/name] is my favourite, as it’s my grandmother’s name.

  • I’m considering changing Fiene to Fien (Feen) - might be more easily pronounced.

I voted [name]Hazel[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Wren[/name]. I love all the names on their own and they have a great flow and vibe when said together.

I voted for [name]Iris[/name] seeing as its one of my guilty pleasures but not so keen on the middle names. I’d mix them up a bit though to make [name]Iris[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Wren[/name] or [name]Iris[/name] Fiene/Fien [name]May[/name]. :slight_smile:
