I just want a second opinion as to whether the set sounds good together or not. More emphasis has been placed on family significance than how the name sounds all together. Except for [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], all of the names come from the family.
Boys:
[name_m]Holden[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m]
[name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Sonny[/name_u]
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u] (undecided)
Girls:
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f] [name_u]Leigh[/name_u]
So does the set sound cohesive? I’m mainly wondering about the more masculine [name_u]Emory[/name_u] and her sister [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], but does the [name_u]Leigh[/name_u] (pronounced [name_u]Lee[/name_u]) middle name balance it out? Thank you for your input!
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f] does sound like a bit of an outlier. It’s not too bad, it just sounds very modern-British as opposed to the modern-American feel of the rest of the names. [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] sound like siblings but as a whole, all of the names are fairly unisex except for [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]. I think middle names in books are sometimes superfluous, and often don’t need to be stated, so I don’t think [name_u]Leigh[/name_u] as a middle helps the case, especially since [name_u]Leigh[/name_u] is much more common on girls than on boys (at least where I’m from). If [name_u]Emory[/name_u] goes by [name_f]Emmy[/name_f], I think they would go better together. I’m not sure if matters overall though. It’s not so bad that I don’t believe they come from the same family.
Unrelated issue but in my accent, [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] is too repetitive. It nearly sounds like [name_f]EM[/name_f]-marie [name_f]Marie[/name_f]. That would bother me a ton which is why I bring it up. None of the other names have this problem. I know you said that family significance is more important, but it sounds borderline ridiculous. Sorry. I’d use a different middle name for [name_u]Emory[/name_u]. Maybe [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f], [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], or [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Marianne[/name_f]? Or maybe use [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_u]Leigh[/name_u] and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]?
