Opinions on my girl combos!

As I said in my boys thread today, this snow day has made me name the day away!

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]

Let me hear your feedback and suggestions :slight_smile: Thanks again Berries!

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]-[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] is NMS but [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is a great middle name!
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]-[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite, lovely combo!
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]-[name_u]Remy[/name_u] is okay but [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]'s a favorite of mine.
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]-The combo’s okay
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]-Prefer [name_f]Esme[/name_f], pretty combo
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]-Very cute and the combo has great flow!

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]: I love love [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Calliope[/name_f]. [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is not my favorite, but it works nicely with [name_f]Calliope[/name_f].
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]: Cute! [name_f]Mila[/name_f] is adorable, and [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] is very pretty.
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]: Sorry, I have a male cat named [name_u]Remy[/name_u]. I can’t picture it on a girl human for anything. [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] does balance it out nicely though.
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]: For some reason I dislike the o in [name_u]Emory[/name_u]. [name_u]Emery[/name_u] would be nicer, I think.
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]: I prefer [name_f]Ismay[/name_f], [name_f]Esme[/name_f] still makes me think Twilight. [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] is a little trendy for my taste, but it does make a nice in the middle.
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]: Hm, I prefer [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] strictly as a nickname. Any long forms you’ve looked at?

By the way, I had a snow day today as well. Are you in the northeastern United States? Because we are getting a massive storm right now. We have like over a foot.

Thanks guys! :slight_smile:
@larkub101 I love [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], but the boyfriend hates it. I also really like [name_f]Eliette[/name_f] (which is an ironic smushing of [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] and [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]!) I really don’t mind the nickname as a name trend, as you can tell from my choices of [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and [name_u]Remy[/name_u]! & No, I live in the southern part of the United States! We didn’t get what the northerners’ definition of ā€œa lotā€ is lol, but we got way more snow than we are used to getting.

Oh hello again… I swear I’m not stalking you :wink:

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - At first, I wasn’t sure about [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] because I was pronouncing it all wrong. But now that I know it’s Cah-Lye-Oh-Pee I kind of like it! Better than [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]. [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is also lovely and perfect as a middle since [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] needs a short and simple middle.
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] - Ahhh I love [name_f]Mila[/name_f]! One of my faves. However I dislike [name_f]Alouette[/name_f], and being [name_m]French[/name_m] I find it ridiculous as a name since all I can think about is the bird song. BUT if the song is unknown in your area, then I’m sure it’s usable. Something about the -la ending and [name_m]Al[/name_m]- of mn sounds odd. Maybe [name_f]Jeannette[/name_f], [name_f]Suzette[/name_f], [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f], [name_f]Louisette[/name_f]?
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - [name_u]Love[/name_u].
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] - Also love. Though I prefer [name_m]Amaury[/name_m] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] :slight_smile:
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] - Oh, [name_f]Ismay[/name_f]. I actually prefer [name_f]Ismay[/name_f] over [name_f]Esme[/name_f], which is strange since I’m a big [name_f]Esme[/name_f] fan! Also adore [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] (though many berries hate on [name_f]Bri[/name_f]- names)
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] - Beauty.

I remember commenting on your first names a few days back, so I didn’t give too many suggestions :slight_smile: [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] combos!

Stunning names! You’re lucky to have a cooperative boyfriend. Mine would love to name our future children after snowboarders or cowboys. Not ideal choices.

[name_f]Mila[/name_f] is my fave of those.

@mickie9 lol! I had the SAME problem with [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] at first! I was saying Cah-lee-o-pee. I like it a lot better the proper way, haha!

I have no idea what song you are talking about so I guess it makes [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] a safe choice for me to use! But, the boyfriend much prefers [name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u] so I guess we’re gonna go with that. I’m gonna wait and change my signature until I get all the feedback, and all of his :slight_smile:

When I see [name_m]Amaury[/name_m], I only see [name_u]Maury[/name_u] and think of that terrible show! [name_u]Amory[/name_u] is pretty though, even though it’s a literary boy name :slight_smile:

Thanks for your compliments on the other combos!

** I just noticed you are from [name_f]Canada[/name_f], so you would know more about [name_m]French[/name_m] music, and you may not know about the [name_u]Maury[/name_u] show, but if you don’t, just look it up on Youtube and you’ll see what I mean, hahaha!

@daphneblue He is SO not cooperative! He vetoes almost [name_f]EVERY[/name_f] name I love, haha! There are a select few that he likes/could stand but that’s it. I’m glad he seems cooperative though! :slight_smile:

LOL oh I know [name_u]Maury[/name_u]! If it reminds you of THAT then don’t use it hahah that’s a horrible thing to associate your child’s name to! [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] is a children’s song about plucking feathers off variant body parts of a bird but in a… fun way? Not sure how to explain it, but it’s a harmless song.

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - Not my style, but I love the nickname [name_f]Callie[/name_f].
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] - I adore [name_f]Mila[/name_f]. [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] isn’t my favorite, but it’s lovely.
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - [name_u]Remy[/name_u] sounds more like a nickname to me.
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] - Not a fan of [name_u]Emory[/name_u], sorry. [name_f]Willow[/name_f] is beautiful.
[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] - [name_f]Esme[/name_f] (this spelling is much better) is gorgeous. [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] feels invented to me, sorry.
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], but I’d use it only as a nickname. [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] is gorgeous and unexpected, I love it.

Maybe [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]? And [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_f]Elle[/name_f]/[name_f]Ella[/name_f] or something more unusual like [name_f]Elowen[/name_f], [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Electra[/name_f] as a way to get the nickname [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]?

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]-I like this one. The flow works.
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]- Probably my favorite. Neither are names you hear often ([name_f]Mila[/name_f] seems to growing in popularity of late, though). A stunning combo!
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]-[name_u]Remy[/name_u] is boy to me. Sorry.
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]- Not bad. But also not my favorite. I like Emery better, but also for a boy.
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]-I like [name_f]Esme[/name_f] better. Maybe tied as a favorite.
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]-Like it, but prefer Ellie as a nn. Probably second favorite. Maybe Elenora/Eleanora Cosette nn Ellie?[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] is much more popular than [name_f]Mila[/name_f] or [name_f]Esme[/name_f], which makes me like them a bit more.

Great list!

Mila Alouette is my favorite! SO pretty!

1,00 - worst, 5,00- best

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - lovely, [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] is nice, pretty name, and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is perfect middle, 4,99
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] - lovely, not in love with [name_f]Alouette[/name_f], but still nice, 4,78
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - seems tomboyish, 3,99
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] - OK, 3,50
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] - prefer [name_f]Esme[/name_f], but [name_f]Ismay[/name_f] is also nice, 4,67
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] - nice, 4,57

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u].

First, I’d just like to say how lovely I think this list is!! It’s perfect!

[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - [name_f]Adore[/name_f] this. [name_u]Love[/name_u] both names individually but together they are even nicer.
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] - Wouldn’t worry so much about the ā€˜la’ ā€˜la’ thing, I didn’t notice until it was mentioned.
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - Never heard this name on a girl but I love this combo!
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] - Prefer the [name_u]Emery[/name_u] spelling better but love this name and [name_f]Willow[/name_f] together
[name_f]Ismay[/name_f]/[name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] - Simply gorgeous.
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] - Not such a huge fan of this one because I see [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] as a nickname, also because [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]/[name_f]Ella[/name_f] is so popular these days.

Good luck! :slight_smile:

Thank you for all the compliments! I’ll try to address everything :slight_smile:
@polina I do like [name_f]Elle[/name_f]/[name_f]Ella[/name_f], and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] but I really just like [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] on it’s own. I think nowadays it can stand by itself! I just think of [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] Goulding, and how it’s wearable for her even as an adult. Also, [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] is pretty, just a little TOO [name_m]French[/name_m], if that makes sense!

[name_f]Mila[/name_f] is the favorite, apparently! It’s my favorite off the list too, and my boyfriend’s favorite! [name_u]Sage[/name_u] would be the more realistic middle name for us for [name_f]Mila[/name_f], but I just really adore the combo [name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]! The whole double L thing doesn’t bother me because the L sounds are a little different- miLA aLOUette. See what I mean?

Anyway, [name_f]Esme[/name_f]/[name_f]Ismay[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] probably would not be an option for us, because my boyfriend simply doesn’t like it. He isn’t a fan super girly, or super manly names, so [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Brielle[/name_f] is too much frill for him. I still love it thought! He also doesn’t like [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] because he couldn’t pronounce it at first, and he has vetoed everything he can’t pronounce right off the bat (which is why my beloved [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] is no longer on our list. Sigh.)

Our new list of right now, is [name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u]/[name_f]Alouette[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], [name_u]Emery[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f], and [name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]. Again, thanks so much for the input!

Sorry for any repeats!

Have you thought about [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]? I adore [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] - many happy memories for me :slight_smile:

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]Emory[/name_u] - never heard of it before but will definitely be suggesting it to my OH!

I’m not a huge fan of [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] (but that’s just me!), however I am warming to [name_u]Wren[/name_u]

I think [name_f]Mila[/name_f] is also lovely - slightly exotic but also walking on the ā€œnormalā€ side

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] you find the perfect combo :slight_smile:
