I have my DP half-interested in [name]Alba[/name], I think in exchange for [name]Cormac[/name] over [name]Luca[/name] (sigh), so want to play with combos. The Finnish second middle name will be Lumi, so need a something in between. Lumi means snow.
I want something evocative, that sounds and looks beautiful and draws a picture in your mind. My DD is edited, so want something to live up to that. I like nature, Celtic and Scandinavian, mythological names, but it doesn’t have to be those. Would prefer a longer name as I want to avoid the 2-2-2 syllable thing.
Any suggestions, how would you complete [name]Alba[/name] __________ Lumi or [name]Alba[/name] Lumi _______?
I know a couple who just named their daughter [name]Alba[/name]! The went with [name]Alba[/name] [name]Mae[/name], and they have a 2 syllable last name as well. I think it sounds beautiful, and classic with [name]Mae[/name]… I know they considered using Rosabel as a mn but went with [name]Mae[/name]. Good luck!
Names that are standing out are
[name]Isolde[/name]
[name]Katherine[/name] (which feels a bit boring though I love it)
[name]Zephyrine[/name]
[name]Nerissa[/name]
[name]Indigo[/name] (but doesn’t really work as I just see purple snow)
[name]Artemis[/name]
I like some one syllable names already but not sure if they work
[name]Wren[/name]
[name]Maeve[/name]
[name]Blythe[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
Like the look of [name]Cessair[/name], but think it would be too hard for people to prn and the meaning is depressing.
Wouldn’t use [name]Soraya[/name] as I hate the whole pink princess thing and the meaning would put me off though I like the sound.
[name]Love[/name] [name]Elettra[/name] for someone else but not my child. [name]Sahara[/name] is not my style. Thanks.
Ones that seem to be sticking in my head
[name]Alba[/name] [name]Katherine[/name] Lumi - DP and I both love [name]Katherine[/name], but seems a bit boring next to C’s name
[name]Alba[/name] [name]Seraphine[/name] Lumi - I like the sound of this, but DP won’t like the religious connection and it’s a bit frilly for us.
[name]Alba[/name] [name]Isolde[/name] Lumi - not sure about this one
[name]Alba[/name] Lumi [name]Maeve[/name]/[name]Alba[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] Lumi - not sure which works better
[name]Alba[/name] Lumi Elowen
The rhythm of [name]Katherine[/name] and [name]Seraphine[/name] are really working for me, so if anyone has any similar suggestions I’d appreciate it. Thanks.
