[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Faith[/name_f] [name_m]Kumar[/name_m] flows a lot better for me (especially the transition between the first two names), but [name_f]Nina[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_m]Kumar[/name_m] is nice too

[name_f]Nina[/name_f] is such a sweet and underrated name! She gets my vote! Also, you get to use both of your top names with [name_f]Nina[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]! Seems like a win-win

I think it depends on what sound you want Nina Kumar is sprightly and fast paced (to say, and also in vibe); Isabelle obviously slows the name right down and is more dainty.

If you choose Nina, I would consider a new middle name - I don’t think Nina flows well to Isabelle (the A to the I isn’t great). I would use Nina Faith, Nina Florence or Nina Mabel (or a consonant-starting middle, not a vowel, three syllables might be best - haven’t quite thought of one! Nina Florabell for eg)).

Isabelle Faith flows better as a combo, imo.

I prefer [name_f]Nina[/name_f]! Isabelle/Isabella/Isobel/Isabel has so many popular variations, [name_f]Nina[/name_f] seems to dazzle in comparison. [name_f]Nina[/name_f] is underused but familiar, nestled in that sweet golden spot of names.

And [name_f]Nina[/name_f] makes me think of ballerinas! I suppose your biggest issue with the name would be the two different pronunciations “NEE-na” v. “NINE-ah.”

That said, both names are gorgeous and [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is undoubtedly a regal, principessa name that evokes a rosy, springbud beauty.

You can’t go wrong!

both make adorable combos, but of the two nina isabelle truly caught my eye. how gorgeous!!!

you could also do nina isabelle faith if you’re really torn on which to include (i’ve been loving a double middle lately). anyways, adorable choices all around.

I didn’t know those existed. I usually only have heard and default to the first one. I am not from an English speaking country, but even in English speaking shows and stuff I have only heard the first one lol.
