[name_f]Lyra[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] - Gorgeous! Sounds sophisticated or artistic. It’s hard to explain, but it’s really resonating with me, I love it! Keep.
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] - Not a personal fan of [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] (I think old person name), and, as a pp said, it runs together when said aloud. I love [name_f]Elise[/name_f], though. [name_f]Imo[/name_f], toss combo, keep [name_f]Elise[/name_f] and re-pair with a different first/middle.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] - I really don’t like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] because it looks like the words mango and maggot, and it doesn’t have a pretty sound, to me. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] is pretty, it’s just not exactly my style. I would toss [name_f]Margo[/name_f] and keep/re-pair [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f].
[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] - I’m gonna have to agree with a previous berry again on this one. It does sound like you’re hissing when you say it. At first glance, I thought it was a beautiful combo, but then I said it aloud. I would flip it to [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] [name_f]Anneliese[/name_f] and keep! They’re both gorgeous names and a couple of my favorites.
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] - This combo is great! It flows perfectly and it sounds like such a sweet name. Keep.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] - Two of my top five names…so beautiful together. They would even sound good flipped. It’s gorgeous. I do prefer [name_f]Juliette[/name_f], though, haha. Keep, keep, keep!
[name_f]Mariah[/name_f] [name_u]Eloise[/name_u] - I love [name_f]Mariah[/name_f], too! [name_u]Eloise[/name_u] is a cute name, but only if the ‘S’ is pronounced with an ‘S’ sound and not a ‘Z’ sound. I’m weird. Otherwise, combo flows, sounds good =] Keep.
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f] [name_f]Avis[/name_f] - I can’t take [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] seriously anymore because of the Teen Mom girl, and I didn’t think it was that great a name to begin with. [name_f]Avis[/name_f] seems like [name_m]Davis[/name_m] or [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] (ik ik [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] is a girl name, but it kind of sounds like a dirty word to me). Sorry, toss.
[name_f]Calista[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] - [name_f]Calista[/name_f] is growing on me. I think it sounds cute. I feel like [name_f]Calista[/name_f] is young, fresh and vibrant, while [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] sounds old and even worse, like [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] (which again, dirty word). Keep [name_f]Calista[/name_f], Toss [name_f]Maeve[/name_f].
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Helene[/name_f] - Both of these names are so not my style. It flows, but I just don’t like it for anyone under the age of 50. Toss!
[name_f]Lilia[/name_f] [name_f]Adele[/name_f] - This is pretty! I wasn’t sure I liked [name_f]Adele[/name_f], but I think it’s growing on me. And I love [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], so cute. They sound beautiful together. Nice combo, keep!
Sorry if this seemed too harsh at times. I just figured if I was saying I didn’t like a name, I should give you a reason. Otherwise, it’s like…Okay? You don’t like it so I shouldn’t? Solid reasoning."
