I really like 3:

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Valencia[/name_f]
[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m]
[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine

Was torn but in the end voted for [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine.

I like th idea of given your daughter your maiden name as a middle.

Otherwise, I see in your signature “[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] the Eskimo” due [name_u]March[/name_u] 7, 2014 is this your daughter [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f]? I love the name [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] for a girl but for my style it’s too unisex for a firstname. I love the combination:

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]

WAIT! I want to change my vote. After reading the correct pronunciation (I’m too impatient it seems), I like [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_m]Lanz[/name_m]. I like the simplicity of [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] with the complex [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f].

I almost always go for the combos with the maiden names. [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] got my vote. [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine is my second choice.

I love [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] “[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]” for you guys! I agree with @dottipanda - I still really like the idea of incorporating [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] somehow. I lovelovelove Zoria (where did you find this?!), and I think [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] or [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] would be lovely. But does that avoid family names altogether? I also like Iverine but am embarrassed I still don’t know how to say it? I was thinking like EE-veh-REEN, but I feel like that’s too close to 3vie’s name. Unless you were hoping to honor her in a roundabout way, as well. :slight_smile: [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria Iverine would be gorgeous, too, but is that too much of a mouthful?

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] [name_u]Ash[/name_u]! Thanks, I’m pretty excited.

Zoria: found it at BabyNamesPedia by way of [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] --> [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] --> Zorianna --> Zoria! I kept it because I liked the repeating Z’s in Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m].

I voted [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m]. But another suggestion is [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Iverine [name_m]Lanz[/name_m].

They’re all lovely and meaningful to you, I see, but some more lovely than others…

I voted for [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m], but had it been an option I would have picked [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]. [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f]'s romantic and feminissima (sp?), Zoria’s spunky and fun, [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is demure and grounds the whole name. Two Zs in such close succession with Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] is a bit too harsh for me.

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Iverine and [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine are both pretty, but I feel like there isn’t that layer of spirit and fieriness there. And I’d prefer [[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f]] Iverine [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] to [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine.

I love [name_f]Valencia[/name_f] itself, but even I find that a bit too frilly with [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] and I adore frilly. Sorry :frowning:

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] is almost a bit too simple for me with your surname. If you had a complicated 20+ letter, 4+ syllable surname this would be perfect. But [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] doesn’t have much sparkle to me, it’s more of a “grounder” type name. I’m actually not fond of it with any of the other names you have here, though it’s a lovely name- it may have gotten voted down already but what about [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Veronica[/name_f] [name_m]Lanz[/name_m]? Pretty, girly, fun and with family connections.

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Iverine

[name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Valencia[/name_f] with [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] Zoria [name_m]Lanz[/name_m] as a very close runner up. I simply can’t get [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] [name_f]Valencia[/name_f] out of my head. Either of these two and I’ll be a happy girl indeed.

I don’t know. I don’t feel like it really is, but I like a lot of spunky “Z” names. There’s [name_f]Zara[/name_f], and [name_f]Zaria[/name_f], and [name_f]Zora[/name_f] and [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] and [name_f]Zoya[/name_f]… which are all sort of similar to Zoria, so I think it works. It sort of shimmers and shines like a twinkling star in the sky, too. It’s just really cool, I think. :slight_smile:

I love [name_f]Dulcinea[/name_f] and I love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]… so for me it was an obvious choice.

Thanks to all 47 Berries who voted here!! This has been really helpful and interesting to see.
