PLEASE- beyond frustrated- narrowed list but need help name combo's

Hello. I’ve posted on here needing help and we still do. We have shortened our list but still can’t figure out middle names to make a final decision. Please help! I have received some advice already from other posts and have taken them into consideration and added them onto our list. I appreciate the willingness to help and great advice some of you have given. If this matters to you our last name starts with a C. I am so frustrated that I really would love to throw in the towel but I know that can’t happen. The tears of frustration are starting to appear and I’m just at my wits end.

First name list:
1 [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]
2. [name_u]Everly[/name_u]
3 [name_f]Kiara[/name_f]
4. [name_f]Ariella[/name_f]
5. [name_f]Eliana[/name_f]
6. [name_f]Eliora[/name_f]

Possible middle names:
1 [name_f]Kaia[/name_f]
2. [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
3. [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]
4 [name_f]Cambrie[/name_f] (not really a fan, but he is)
5. [name_f]Naia[/name_f]
6. [name_f]Neva[/name_f]
7. [name_u]Alani[/name_u]
8. [name_u]Bryn[/name_u] (not sure if I like it as much anymore)
9. [name_f]Nova[/name_f] ( just came across this name and like it enough to add to list)

So, with all these names said any name combinations for me? If you have a different middle name suggestion please feel free.

From your list, my favorites are [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_u]Everly[/name_u], and [name_f]Eliana[/name_f]. Combos could be:

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] (I think I like this one the best)
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]

[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]

[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]

[name_m]How[/name_m] many syllables is your last name?

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is fabulous. [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] is nice but hard to pair with many of the a endings. I adore [name_f]Kaia[/name_f], but again the a endings on both first and middle names make it harder. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] is nice, but [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is perfect.

If you’re not a fan of [name_f]Cambrie[/name_f], do you like [name_f]Cambria[/name_f]? If you do like [name_f]Cambria[/name_f], [name_f]Bree[/name_f] or [name_f]Bria[/name_f] is a cute nn choice.

Here are some combos from your list:

[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f], [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u]

[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]

[name_f]Kiara[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u], [name_f]Ariella[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f], [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]

If you do not both love, take it off the list.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m]. Thank you for your suggestions. Our last name has 3 syllables. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is a name someone else suggested on another post I had in need of help. I really like it. I think as a first name I’m personally leading to [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] and [name_u]Everly[/name_u]. Other then the middle names I have listed any other suggestions?

I agree [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is gorgeous. It is by far the front runner [name_f]IMO[/name_f].

Any interest in [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]? They are similar to the names you like but might pair better with your middles.

That being said [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is pretty adorable. More middles I can think of would be:
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Arya[/name_u] (I’m a fan of alliteration)
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Tamsin[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f]

[name_u]Everly[/name_u] Harlowe
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Snow[/name_f]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] that helps!

My favorites for you:

[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] or [name_u]Wren[/name_u]

[name_f]Eliora[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] or [name_u]Wren[/name_u]

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] or [name_u]Wren[/name_u]

[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] or [name_u]Wren[/name_u]

[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u] (I prefer [name_f]Brynn[/name_f]), [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], and [name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u] are my favorites from your list. I tried to go with what I would choose if I were you. Good luck! :slight_smile:

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] are both fabulous! I quite like [name_f]Ariella[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u] as well.

I much prefer [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] over [name_u]Everly[/name_u] (the latter is more of a surname or unisex name to my ears).

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]

Many seem to like [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], but [name_u]Wren[/name_u] just seems to be very trendy at the moment. [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] is a bit of a surprise nickname. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] just has a bit of ‘wow’ about it.

My picks of your bunch are [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_f]Eliana[/name_f]. Everleigh is another adorable way of spelling [name_u]Everly[/name_u]. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you like the name [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]? Sorry [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is just not my cup of tea.

Suggestions:
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Anwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] ?

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u] both get my vote. Suggesting [name_f]Cambria[/name_f] and [name_f]Ambra[/name_f] as alternatives to the name you dislike.

I love [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] and [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]!
[name_f]May[/name_f] I also suggest [name_f]Elora[/name_f] it’s one of my favorites :wink:

I’d suggest [name_f]Camille[/name_f] for a middle name. However I’d also like to suggest [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Camille[/name_f] as a name option. [name_m]Reading[/name_m] [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] back to back sort of transformed into [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] for me.

I’m sorry you’re getting frustrated. [name_m]Even[/name_m] when I did have names I absolutely adored I felt flustered that maybe I was still missing something. If you still feel that way tomorrow I would keep the list you have, but start an entirely new list to see if you fall in love with something else. I know it sound silly but walking away from the names you have now may actually help you figure out if you miss the idea of one of them enough to use it. I had so many names loves (SO FREAKING MANY!) but I kept falling in love with [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]. I’m hoping something triggers like that in you making the choice easier.

My favourite first name is [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], these are my favourite middle names.
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]

Apart from [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] my top 3 name combos are:
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Ariella[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Kiara[/name_f] [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]

[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]. Absolutely, out of all those. Or [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] as runner up.

if you like everly and elodie you may also like [name_u]Emery[/name_u] and [name_u]Ellery[/name_u] as well. Or [name_u]Amory[/name_u] and [name_u]Avery[/name_u]. SP? on the last one

I’m with so many others on [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u].

I’m not a fan of [name_f]Caprice[/name_f]. Doesn’t it mean changing your opinion for no good reason, kinda being flighty? I don’t love that image for a girl, or woman, for that matter.

I’m going to be annoying and ask…how would you pronounce [name_f]Kiara[/name_f]…the Irish [name_f]Keira[/name_f]/[name_f]Kiera[/name_f] (like [name_f]Keira[/name_f] Knightly or [name_f]Kyra[/name_f] sedgwick) or the more italian kee-ara (chiara)? I’ve seen so many variations on this. It’s the only reason I wouldn’t use the original irish spelling [name_f]Ciara[/name_f] because everyone would get it wrong! Something to consider for that name.

I really like [name_u]Everly[/name_u], alternative spelling Everleigh or Eveleigh (the last one if you don’t want to pronounce the ‘r’, like me, an Aussie :)). [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is really nice but when she says her name, people might assume she has said ‘[name_f]Melody[/name_f]’. But you know what, people are always going to do that with any name!

There is a suburb in Australia called Eveleigh and so I have always had a soft spot. A 3 syllable name will require a 1 or 2 syllable middle.
