for [name_f]Indie[/name_f]: [name_f]Indira[/name_f], [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], [name_f]Clarinda[/name_f], [name_f]Belinda[/name_f], [name_f]Dorinda[/name_f], [name_f]Florinda[/name_f], [name_f]Jacinda[/name_f], [name_f]Lorinda[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]

for [name_f]Etta[/name_f]: [name_f]Henrietta[/name_f], [name_f]Harriet[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadette[/name_f], [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], [name_f]Esther[/name_f], [name_f]Juliette[/name_f], [name_f]Loretta[/name_f]

[name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f] are too close, at least to me. They share the first three letters, end in the same letter, and have the same number of syllables. I could see [name_f]Lorinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f], or [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Loretta[/name_f], working a little better, simply because the sounds aren’t as similar, but they are still a little too close for my taste. [name_f]Florinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f], or [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], are probably my favorite pairs. I think [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Etta[/name_f] are very cute nicknames, by the way.

I like both

To be honest, I like [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Etta[/name_f] by themselves. [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f] are too similar - they only don’t share 3 letters!

Thank you so much for the great suggestions! I love the combination of [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]. And just [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Etta[/name_f] would be better than [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f].

I also [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] together to get to [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Etta[/name_f].

I think it just comes to down to which name I like most between [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucetta[/name_f]…the answer probably changes daily
