My first thought is to definitely go with the name you love the most.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] does not have the perfect flow, but it’s not terrible either.
I personally like [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] the most.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is nice enough and though the flow isn’t great with the repeated long O sounds, really, not a big deal. If you love [name_f]Noelle[/name_f], definitely go with it - don’t sacrifice a beloved name for something else, just for the sake of flow - seriously, how often in life does one actually say their full name aloud anyway?
My first thought was [name_f]Geraldine[/name_f] as a mn for [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] so my vote definitely goes to [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]! [name_m]Just[/name_m] love that combo! [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is fine but not great in my opinion but if you love it just go for it!
I actually think [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] flows together nicely. If you love it, go ahead and use it.
My personal fave is [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] because I love love love the name [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]. But it’s not my baby and I really think you should use them name you love the most! I actually quite like the way [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] rolls off the tongue, it’s not difficult to say or jarring.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] is an utterly fabulous choice, love it!
If you’ve always wanted to use [name_f]Noelle[/name_f], I’d go for it this time. It’s pot luck whether you’ll have another girl or not, and it sounds like you’d regret not using it (though there’s also [name_u]Noel[/name_u] for a boy, of course). Always use the name you love most!
My second choice would be the stunning [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], which also feels appropriately seasonal for a winter baby.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is beautiful (even if the flow isn’t the best). Definitely use the name you love!
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] sounds beautiful to me, I’d definitely use it for your winter baby!
My personal choice would be [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is a little clunky for my taste.
What about [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Gloria[/name_f]? It’s got a similar meaning/style to [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] and I think it makes for a really cool name!
Thanks for all the encouragement! We still have time before she’s born in [name_u]January[/name_u], so it’s something I can sit with and ponder over, but I needed to know if [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] should be off th table completely. I’m so happy that it’s not a total loss!! After saying it a couple time, I have to say the flow isn’t bad at all. I kinda like the repeating O sound. My husband’s first choice is [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] (we just realized if her middle name starts with a V her initials would be CVS lol…so…haha not sure if we’ll use [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. We’ll see!) but he’s not married to the combo and ultimately wants me to be happy. He’s a good hubby, he knows he married a name obsessed person.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_u]Noel[/name_u] is visually appealing and flows quite nicely to my ears.
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] is one of my top girl names but alas- no more babies for me.
