Ophelia or Olivia?

I’m very much into Shakespearean baby names now since my theatre arts class is reading [name_m]Hamlet[/name_m] :slight_smile:

For a boy I have [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m], but what sounds better with it, [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] or [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]? [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] could also be the first name, but I can’t decide.

Any suggestions are welcome <3

[name_m]Aaron[/name_m] and [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] sound much better paired than [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] and [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f].
Never really liked the Ph aspect of that name though. My niece mn is Omyra.

I like [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] more, but I wouldn’t pair it with [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]…too heavy handed on the Tragic Female thing.

I prefer [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] to [name_f]Olivia[/name_f], but [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is better with [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] and [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] are just too much together. [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] would be my pick from these names.

[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] is a bit much but [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] is definitely too much. If you want another [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] name then how about [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] (Taming of the Shrew), [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] (Much [name_f]Ado[/name_f] About Nothing), [name_f]Bianca[/name_f] (Taming of the Shrew), [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] (As You Like It).

[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] would be gorgeous.

[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]! It’s so much fresher than [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]. Around these parts, nearly every family with young children has an [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]. [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] is too much though. I would select a different middle name.

With [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] I prefer [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] or [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]. I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] but especially with this spelling of [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] as a middle name, the combo is very tragic and also a bit too grand (too much of a name) with simple [name_m]Aaron[/name_m].

[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] 165%!!! Beautiful combo! I love both names and together its perfection.

[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] is brilliant :smiley:
