Opinions Please?!

Girl Names
1

As many people know, i’ve been updating my list, and slow as ever, i’ve been making combos and seeing which ones I love more than a few others that I have on my main list of names. It’s been a long and long process for like the last two months. I feel like I am almost there to getting a list of names that I like, and now considering what ones I want to replace a few names with. I have already replaced one with my ever loved [name_f]Annika[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f] combo, and I have three more or so I would love to replace with something else, because honestly most of my taste has shifted. So, opinions on the names, how they flow, if they fit better with my ever shifting taste, and how they sound. Also, could you please vote on the nn in “” next to a few of the names? I like a lot of the nick names and I just want to get a feel of how some of them will do in the real world.

My favorites:

[name_f]Adira[/name_f] [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_f]Audra[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f] ([name_u]LOVE[/name_u])
[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] Novelle
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_u]Emery[/name_u] [name_f]Lenora[/name_f] [name_u]Skye[/name_u] (yes to [name_f]Emmie[/name_f] as a nn.)
[name_f]Junie[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f] (prefer [name_f]Junie[/name_f] since that’s the FN – a nn. based on the MN can be confusing) (also [name_u]LOVE[/name_u])
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Maja[/name_f] (yes to [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] as a nn.)

Stylistically different from the rest and from your signature (not that that’s a bad thing, but you asked):

Emerly [name_u]Hudson[/name_u]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_u]Carter[/name_u]
[name_u]Tae[/name_u] [name_f]Lilian[/name_f]
[name_f]Viviana[/name_f] [name_u]Jordan[/name_u] (prefer [name_f]Vivi[/name_f] over ViviJo)

Not loving so much:

[name_f]Aisling[/name_f] [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] (though I love the idea, I’m getting caught up in the -ling/[name_f]Lin[/name_f]-)
[name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f] [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] (again, love the idea, but that’s a lot of soft s sounds in the middle)
[name_f]Calla[/name_f] Avaline (don’t love the repeated A sounds in the middle)
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_u]Allison[/name_u] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] (the repeated three-syllable-n-ending feels like too much, but I love the nn. [name_u]Josie[/name_u])
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] [name_f]Vera[/name_f] (same as above)
[name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_f]Atlee[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] ([name_u]Penny[/name_u] is a cute nn., but I think the combo sounds better without [name_f]Atlee[/name_f])

I hope this helps :slight_smile:

[name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] - prefer [name_f]Lenora[/name_f] [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] or [name_f]Lenora[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]/[name_f]Elyse[/name_f] much more

@ceryle thank you for the feed back, i’ve really been thinking of changing calla’s middle name, because honestly, i don’t love it. what do you think of [name_f]Calla[/name_f] [name_u]Emerson[/name_u]?

@desdemona
I really love [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] as well, but the popularity in my area is nuts. All [name_f]Em[/name_f]- names actually are skyrocketing in this area, so the actual chance of me using them is low. But I really love [name_f]Em[/name_f]- names. I can’t use [name_u]Paisley[/name_u], as I have a thing against using my cousin’s names.

5

Definitely flows better/easier to say soundwise, though stylistically the two names are quite different. But a number of your combos mix styles, so why not? I might go for something between Avaline and [name_u]Emerson[/name_u], like [name_f]Calla[/name_f] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] or [name_f]Calla[/name_f] Everlyn, but I think [name_f]Calla[/name_f] [name_u]Emerson[/name_u] fits well with your list :slight_smile:

6

For simplicity’s sake, I removed the combos that I did not like at all but tried to use the individual names in new combo ideas.

Annavieve [name_f]Flora[/name_f] - I surprisingly love Annavieve, but [name_f]Flora[/name_f] is meh. Annavieve [name_f]Fleur[/name_f]? Annavieve [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]?
[name_f]Audra[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] - This is perfect!
[name_f]Augusta[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] - [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] is ready for a revival! [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] still feels a bit dowdy to me, but it’s not terrible. Wdyt of [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] [name_f]Tyne[/name_f]?
[name_f]Augusta[/name_f] [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] - Same critique as above. [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]? [name_f]Isolde[/name_f]? [name_f]Irina[/name_f]? [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]?
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_u]Bailey[/name_u] - The styles here feel disjointed. [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f]? [name_f]Lilian[/name_f] [name_u]Bailey[/name_u]? [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f]? [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]?
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] - Pretty, but would love the [name_m]French[/name_m] prn of Geneviève (zhawn-vee-EHV)
[name_f]Calla[/name_f] Avaline - I love everything about this.
[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] Novelle - Same as above!
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] - Very pretty but feels just a tiny bit incomplete. [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Katia[/name_f]? [name_f]Katrina[/name_f]?
[name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] - Typically [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] is way too masculine, but here it fits!
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f] - [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] is cute but too nickname-ish. [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f], Megara?
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Ailish[/name_f] - Gorgeous and very well balanced. Wdyt of [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] [name_f]Ailish[/name_f]?
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Maja[/name_f] “[name_f]Rosie[/name_f]” - Not a huge fan of [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], but it’s very interesting to see it paired with [name_f]Maja[/name_f].
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] - A little 90s-ish, but still fresh enough to work!
[name_f]Viviana[/name_f] [name_u]Jordan[/name_u] “ViviJo” “[name_f]Vivi[/name_f]” - Another interesting, unexpected combo! ViviJo doesn’t do the pair justice, though, but [name_f]Vivi[/name_f] is fine.

What about…
[name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_f]Leona[/name_f] “[name_u]Joss[/name_u]”
[name_f]Lilian[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f] “[name_f]Lili[/name_f]”
[name_u]Emery[/name_u] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] “[name_f]Emmie[/name_f]/y”
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]

I am really, really loving these combos ~

[name_f]Adira[/name_f] [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_f]Alexia[/name_f] [name_u]Meredith[/name_u]
[name_f]Audra[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Maja[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]

[name_u]Emery[/name_u] [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_u]Skye[/name_u]
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [[name_f]Alisa[/name_f]] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] - [name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_u]Allison[/name_u] does not have ideal flow, so I think something like [name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_f]Alisa[/name_f] would be gorgeous!

[name_u]Love[/name_u]:

[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] [name_f]Sofie[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] (sometimes simplest is best)
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]

Like:

[name_f]Aisling[/name_f] [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexia[/name_f] [name_u]Meredith[/name_u]
[name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]
[name_f]Junie[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f]
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_u]Day[/name_u] “[name_f]Lettie[/name_f]”

Would love with some changes:

[name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f] [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] - [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] doesn’t flow right with the repetition of the s sound at end of [name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f]. I absolutely adore [name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f], but would pair it with [name_f]Claire[/name_f], Flora or [name_f]Kate[/name_f].
For [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] as mn I would like [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] or [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Cecile[/name_f].
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] - like both names but together they compete rather than compliment; the styles don’t work together. I like [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] better - same style, more complimentary.
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]?
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] [name_f]Vera[/name_f] - like [name_f]Emily[/name_f] but not the middles, and don’t like them together. [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f] is gorgeous.
[name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] - doesn’t flow well. Prefer [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], [name_f]Sofie[/name_f], [name_f]Kate[/name_f], [name_f]Minette[/name_f] or [name_f]Cecile[/name_f].
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_u]Carter[/name_u] - like [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] but too androgynous with [name_u]Carter[/name_u]. I love [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] with [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. From your lists I think [name_f]Claire[/name_f] would be good. [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] could work as a quirky name for a quirky girl.
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] - I would put first, [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] [name_f]Sofie[/name_f], [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] [name_f]Cecile[/name_f].

From your list I like:
[name_f]Adira[/name_f] [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] [name_f]Sofie[/name_f]
Annavieve [name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Aoife[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]
[name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_f]Atlee[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] “[name_u]Penny[/name_u]” - Not a fan of [name_f]Atlee[/name_f], but [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] is cute and I like the nn [name_u]Penny[/name_u]!
[name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f] - I don’t think [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] works the best, but [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f] is just sweet!
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_u]Allison[/name_u] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] “[name_u]Josie[/name_u]”
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]

I switched some fn/mn combos around for suggestions:
[name_f]Audra[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Lenora[/name_f] [name_u]Meredith[/name_u]
Annavieve [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] - [name_f]Maggie[/name_f]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
