Esme [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] - 8/10: I love this one! It isn’t my absolute favorite, which knocked it down a couple points. [name_f]Esme[/name_f] just isn’t my favorite name, but [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is just darling!
Hazel [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - 5/10: I think this sounds nice, but it’s just too nature themed, imo. It sounds like you’re saying a wren is hazel in color, which is odd. I do adore [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], though, which is why it’s rated higher than it would’ve been.
Fern [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] - 8/10: I love this one!! This one is like [name_f]Esme[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] in my rating. I love the combo, but [name_f]Fern[/name_f] just isn’t my favorite, which knocks it down a couple points. [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] is beautiful, though!
Phoebe [name_f]Hope[/name_f] - 4/10: Something about the sound of this one just feels off. I’m not sure if it’s the close “be” and “p” sounds that are just too close, but something just sounds really off and makes me not like this one at all. I love both of the names, though!
Beatrix [name_u]June[/name_u] - 10/10: I told myself I wasn’t going to rate anything here a 10, but I really can’t find a problem that I have with this combo. [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] is one of my favorites, and [name_u]June[/name_u] is just so perfect and timeless!
Delphine [name_u]Grey[/name_u] - 3/10: This doesn’t sound like a name to me. [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] has always been one that I’m not too keen on, and paired with [name_u]Grey[/name_u], I think it just makes it feel like a town or name of school or something like that. I wanted to rate this one higher, but it just doesn’t sound like a name to me and I don’t think that’s something that I can just look over.
Zinnia [name_f]Joy[/name_f] - 6/10: The only thing I don’t like about this one is [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f]. I just think it sounds too complicated, and harsh, for a name. Besides that, I think the overall combo sounds nice, and I do love [name_f]Joy[/name_f]!
Zinnia [name_u]Bliss[/name_u] - 5/10: I do have to rate this lower than [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f] [name_f]Joy[/name_f], but that’s only because I like [name_u]Bliss[/name_u] less. [name_u]Bliss[/name_u] is a really poetic and rather beautiful middle name, but that’s just not the type of names that I like. I can see the appeal, though, especially with such an out-there name as [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f].
Stella [name_f]Rose[/name_f] - 10/10: I love love love!!! This was on my list for probably 3, maybe 4, years. The only reason I took it off is because I’ve kind of fallen out of love with [name_f]Stella[/name_f] over all that time. [name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is still absolutely beautiful in my book, and I’m literally so excited to see it on someone else’s list!!
Cosette [name_f]Lucille[/name_f] - 6/10: I like both of these names. [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] is one of those [name_u]French[/name_u] names that doesn’t get much attention, but I just think it is so cute! And [name_f]Lucille[/name_f] isn’t my favorite, but it has its charm and I think it fits very well with [name_f]Cosette[/name_f]. But, the sound of the combo is what throws me. I think it’s just that they’re both two syllables, and [name_u]French[/name_u] names. And, their beginnings are “cos” and “loos”, I just don’t think they’re right to be used as a combo.
Cosette [name_u]Marie[/name_u] - 8/10: I love this one! And definitely much more than [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f]! It’s only an 8, because I have to be honest and say that [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] is definitely not my favorite, and [name_u]Marie[/name_u] is just kind of bland to me. I do see the appeal in it, though. I think the names in this combo really sound like they go together, too.
Elsie [name_f]Mae[/name_f] - 10/10 - This is so so so cute!! I have been in love with [name_f]Elsie[/name_f] over the past month, and this!!! It is just so simple and cute, and vintage. I love it! I feel the same about this one as [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u].
Felicity [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] - 10/10: I absolutely love this one, too!! I don’t have a problem with it. [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] and [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] are just perfect to be placed next to each other. And both are names that I adore! [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] has been one that I’ve been falling more in love with over just the past week, about.
Brighton [name_u]Sage[/name_u] - 6/10: I think this sounds fine. [name_u]Brighton[/name_u] just isn’t my favorite in any situation. [name_u]Sage[/name_u] (or more specifically, [name_u]Saige[/name_u]) was one of my favorites for a while. I really like the idea of using it as a middle, I must say. [name_u]Brighton[/name_u] is really the only thing dragging this one down, and that’s just because I don’t like it much at all.
