[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries!

[name_f][/name_f]

Lately Iā€™ve been thinking quite a lot about names with musical tiesā€”more orchestral/classical/etc., and not so much modern music. [name_f][/name_f] For example, names tied to musical instruments, musical terminology, etc. [name_f][/name_f] Iā€™m not opposed to names related to composers, too. [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]So[/name_f] far this is my list:

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Allegra[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Brio[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Calliope[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f]CoppƩlia
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Lyra[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Viola[/name_f]

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Symphony[/name_f] is a little too out there for me, but has a nice sound. [name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Just[/name_m] wondering what else I may have missed! [name_f][/name_f] Thanks berries!

Beautiful list so far! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

One that I have not seen mentioned yet is [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f], the name of a musical instrument sometimes described as ā€œa cross between a reed organ and an accordionā€.

Thank you everyone!

[name_f][/name_f]

@Greyblue[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- yeah, not really, haha. [name_f][/name_f] Itā€™s nice in theory but it never did much for me. [name_f][/name_f] :sob::sob:

[name_f][/name_f]

@shanade213[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- ohhh, how did I forget [name_f]Piper[/name_f] and [name_f]Fifer[/name_f] and [name_m]Fife[/name_m]? [name_f][/name_f] And I mean, [name_f]Harper[/name_f] evenā€¦

[name_f][/name_f]

@Demoiselle[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- what a beautiful name for an instrument! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] are lovely, but I didnā€™t realize they had a musical tie!

[name_f][/name_f]

@The_Bookwyrm[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_f]Lydian[/name_f] and [name_f]Ione[/name_f] are lovely!

[name_f][/name_f]

@Nessie4[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_f]Viola[/name_f] is one of my favorites! [name_f][/name_f] Iā€™m also intrigued by [name_f]Madrigal[/name_f], though it does seem a little over the top?
