More thoughts

Flora- Reminds me of flowers and summer, it spent a decade on my long list before moving to the top spot

Nora- a forever love :smiling_face::two_hearts: so cozy, warm, and sweet. Could be any girl child! Nor is a cute nn if they choose it.

Esme- I love it with and without the é. A peer from high school has a daughter Renesmée and I always thought that was so cool!! I didn’t get into Esme until recently tho. Soft and strong :muscle:

Lila- Another long-time fav! Makes the think of the color of space, sark but also bright and vibrant. :milky_way: I just wish Layla and Liliana weren’t mega popular!

Opal- Nature names are really big right now! Word middles and flower names are big for girls, and now Ruby, Jade, and Pearl are popular too. I think Opal is the perfect alternative :purple_heart: it makes me think of the caves

Jasper- A long-time favorite, Japser fits sooo well with all my names. I think of a quirky book character in a beautiful novel. Can fit any genre.

Luca- :100: I heard this at a Disney summit years ago and added it to my list (maybe a year or 2 before the movie premiered). I also had Luke for a long time. Reminds me of the summer and salty beach water on the ocean breeze :ocean::butterfly:

Hugo- Has gone on and off my list. For a while I debated if it went well with my favorites! But now it sounds like it does. Hugo feels like finding a private cozy corner in a bookshop to read :books:

Felix- DS suggested! Feels fun, sweet, and light! Like honey or clouds.

Oscar- This is popular among grade schoolers where I live, definitely a timeless classic. Feels like bear cubs running through the forest chasing butterfly’s :bear:

[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] - I like this! Calls to mind a curly haired summer baby who loves to play outdoors. Personally I connect [name_f]Flora[/name_f] too closely with the brand of margarine I grew up using to consider her but she’s a soft, gentle, fragrant choice; [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] is intriguing and though I’m not the biggest [name_u]June[/name_u] fan definitely had the same energy as the other two. 6.5/10
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] - I’m not convinced by [name_f]Nora[/name_f] (I usually love a grandma name revival, but this one sounds slightly harsh to my ears) and the flow is perhaps a little clunky with repeated ‘v’ sounds; that said [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] and [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] are both lovely melodic picks! 5/10.
[name_u]Esme[/name_u] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Fleur[/name_f] - Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. [name_u]Esme[/name_u] has been a favourite since Peaky Blinders, [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] has an intriguing aristocratic energy and [name_f]Fleur[/name_f] is a playful little gem. Together… perfect. 10/10
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] - I adore [name_f]Lila[/name_f] (such a sweet, simple, playful choice), and [name_f]Verity[/name_f] was on my list before being tainted by association; I love almost all floral names, and [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] is totally under appreciated, though not my favourite. Another gem! 7/10.
[name_f]Opal[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_u]Lux[/name_u] - The word that springs to mind is ‘opulent’; this is such a plush, indulgent combo. I’m especially obsessed with [name_u]Lux[/name_u] (I need to work her into one of my combos!) Another winner. 9/10.
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_u]Forest[/name_u] - [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] isn’t a favourite (not a fan of the ‘Jasp’ sound), but I’m almost persuaded by seeing him with [name_u]Forest[/name_u] - I adore nature names on boys and the flow is lovely. 6/10.
[name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] - [name_f]Gorgeous[/name_f] gorgeous gorgeous! I have terrible associations with [name_u]Luca[/name_u] which stops me fully appreciating him, but objectively he’s lovely - elegant, yet so playful! - and the flow with [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] is perfect. 7/10.
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] - Another yes! [name_m]Felix[/name_m] is just a darling, and [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] has such storybook elegance. I’m not sure about the flow of the two together, but I love it so much I’ll say 10/10 anyway.
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Bram[/name_m] - This is the only one I would personally lose - I prefer the simpler [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] to the weightier [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], and [name_m]Bram[/name_m] is just a little Dracula to me. 4/10.
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] - These two feel a little mismatched stylistically (Oscar is so cuddly, while [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] is so dignified), but I’ll say 7/10 because I adore each name individually.
Altogether a stunning set! [name_f]My[/name_f] personal favourites are [name_u]Esme[/name_u] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Fleur[/name_f], [name_f]Opal[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_u]Lux[/name_u] & [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] are my personal favourites. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I’ll rate them out of ten :slight_smile:

[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] - 8 - so bright and zippy

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] - 7 - floral and bright

[name_u]Esme[/name_u] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Fleur[/name_f] - 8 - magical and mystical

[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] - 7 - sharp and sweet

[name_f]Opal[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_u]Lux[/name_u] - 9 - perfect :wink:

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_u]Forest[/name_u] -8.5 - earthy and lovely

[name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] - 8 - charming and balanced

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] - 9 - beautiful

[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Bram[/name_m] - 8 - cuddly and cool

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] - 6 - woodsy and flows well - [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] just isn’t for me, and I know it’s pedantic, but going with the ‘deer-lover’ meaning, deer-loving wolf throws me :grin: I do not think anyone else will have this issue

[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] | 7.5
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Flora[/name_f] and [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] is cool, though I’ve never been fond of [name_u]June[/name_u] myself. The flow is really sweet, and I love the sunny |vibes here!

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] | 8
Everything here is gorgeous and the name as a whole feels super free yet cosy, I love the V sounds and the imagery!

[name_u]Esme[/name_u] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Fleur[/name_f] | 8.5
I adore [name_u]Esme[/name_u], and I love the look of this whole combo. If someone told me this was their name, I would be in absolute awe!

[name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] | 9.5
[name_u]Love[/name_u] the femininity and colours of this combination. This is the best spelling of [name_f]Lila[/name_f] in my opinion, and [name_f]Verity[/name_f] is my favourite of all virtue names. [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] is less my vibe, but acts as a total cherry on top in this case!

[name_f]Opal[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_u]Lux[/name_u] | 8
This name feels super mystical and pearlescent and I love that about it! It really shines.

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_u]Forest[/name_u] | 9.5
[name_u]Love[/name_u] both of these names a heck of a lot, and I think they’re lovely together. I want to say this is a perfect 10, but the perfectionist in me wants to see a third name attached to match your girls!

[name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] | 6
Good names, great look, feel and flow, just not for me!

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] | 7.5
Really like both names, though I have a bit of a hard time saying them together! Going from the X straight into the hard C then S sound feels choppy to me-- may just be a me problem though!

[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Bram[/name_m] | 7
So classic and classy and strong, just a bit short for my tastes, especially when placed next to your other names!

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] | 7
I immediately thought of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_u]Wilde[/name_u], which I don’t think is a bad thing by any means-- just thought I’d mention it. I like these together, the combo feels solid, holds a lot of strength and packs a punch!

Over all I really enjoy your list! Your names feel very bright and sunny and colourful yet organic and grounded and I love the consistency of that through out :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: You have a really solid selection here.
