Ines (also very meaningful)
Linnea (could be pretty meaningful and a creative honor)
Louisa / Louise (has the most meaning out of these as it’s a more obvious honor)
Octavia (kinda meaningful)

What a gorgeous, gorgeous list! I’m in love with so many of the names - favourites are [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Louisa[/name_f], [name_f]Viola[/name_f], [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] and [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]. I also like [name_f]Tess[/name_f], although I prefer [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] - have you considered that? A few others that sprang to mind that could be in keeping with your style were [name_f]Rafaela[/name_f], Cicely/Cecily, [name_f]Siena[/name_f], [name_f]Susanna[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] and [name_f]Anthea[/name_f]. I’ll come back to do a few combos when I’ve got time!
@Mary_Rose Thank you so much! I like [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] too, but prefer [name_f]Tess[/name_f]. From your suggestions, I like [name_f]Susanna[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] and [name_f]Anthea[/name_f]. [name_f]Siena[/name_f] is pretty nice too but I prefer the other ones. [name_f]Rafaela[/name_f] and [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] are not really my taste.
@AStudyIn_Scarlet Thanks so much! [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] are on my list already, but it’s fine! Most of your suggestions are on my longer list. Favorites are [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Sapphira[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Bluebell[/name_f], [name_f]Stella[/name_f], [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] / [name_f]Juliette[/name_f], [name_f]Cosette[/name_f], [name_f]Camellia[/name_f] and [name_f]Lavender[/name_f].
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] and [name_f]Carolina[/name_f] are nice names too, but they’re unusable for me as I have friends with those names.
Thank you for these! I like most of these but [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] and [name_f]Peony[/name_f] [name_f]Tess[/name_f] are especially gorgeous!

@Greyblue Thank you, these help a lot!
I’ve actually never noticed the similarity to “Pee-on” in Peony, but I agree, Peony works best as a middle.
I’m actually not sure how Thalia is pronounced in English but I default to THA-lee-ah.
I’ve only heard Viola (as a name) pronounced vie-OH-lah in English but vee-OH-lah is pretty too.
My favorite combos out of these are Viola Estelle, Thalia Daphne, Diantha Viviette and Cerelia Tess!
I like Eloise too, but Louise / Louisa is a honor name so I won’t be replacing it.
Susanna, Felicity, Cordelia and Noemi are on my longer list, actually! I also like Twila, Luella and Marisol.
Viviette and Elodie might go into my list too.
Thank you for letting me know!! I’m in the UK and have met Thalias pronounced Tha-lee-uh, Tah-lee-uh and Thay-lee-uh, so I was intrigued how you’d say it I like Tha-lee-uh
Vie-oh-luh is my fave pronunciation but I’ve only ever encountered vee-oh-luhs
This is such a pretty set of names! Most of them are names I like the style, sound, and look of myself, and the ones that I don’t like as much personally still match very nicely😊
Alice—9/10: very pretty, classic, and stylish; it works well on any age and well known yet unique Aurora—7/10: pretty, and mythical sounding, but a bit fantasy-ish Cerelia—6/10: I like the way it looks, but it is a bit hard too to pronounce Cerise—4/10: something isn’t very appealing about the way it sounds Clara—8/10: pretty, classic, and international, and makes me think of ballet Daphne—6/10: cute and springy sounding, but a bit too cutesy Diana—6/10: pretty, but somehow a bit haughty sounding and maybe a bit out of date Diantha—4/10: awkward and made up sounding, like a combination of [name_f]Diana[/name_f] and [name_f]Samantha[/name_f] Elara—5/10: kind of pretty, but it somehow sounds like a medicine or something Eliane—4/10: is this pronounced like “Elaine” or “Elly-ann”? I like the second one, but not [name_f]Elaine[/name_f] at all Elisabeth—9/10: very pretty and classic, and is such a well-rounded, timeless name Estelle—7/10: pretty, but a bit out of date Flora—9/10: so pretty, and I love the connection to plants, it makes me think of flowers Genevieve—5/10: kind of pretty, but something I don’t like in the sound Ines—2/10: ??? very awkward and out of date Josephine—8.5/10: very pretty and old fashioned June—6/10: I like the month connection, but [name_u]June[/name_u] sounds like a better middle name to me Leonora—8/10: very pretty and makes me think of the early 1900s; very unheard of Linnea—7/10: pretty and dainty Louisa—8/10: pretty and old fashioned, and very bookish / Louise—6/10: not as nice as [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] Lunaria—4/10: this is the perfect name for a my little pony! Marigold—5/10: I like the sound, and flower connection, but maybe a bit too floral for real life Octavia—5/10: a good name for a character, but a bit extreme and severe sounding Opal—7/10: I like the meaning, and it seems underused compared to similar names Ophelia—8/10: so old fashioned and pretty Peony—5/10: I do like this, and I love peony flowers, but it is a bit too flowery for real life Roxanne—4/10: out of date; not horrible sounding, but not pretty Seraphina—7/10: pretty and old fashioned, but maybe a bit hard to pronounce Tess—4/10: a good nickname, but too nicknamey for a full name Thalia—6/10: I like “Talia”, but not “Th-“ alia nearly as much Viola—7/10: pretty and floral, a nice alternative to [name_f]Violet[/name_f] Vivienne—5/10: kind of pretty, but something is a bit off about it Winter—3/10: maybe a good middle name, but not as a first name
Thanks for all the combos! I love [name_f]Elara[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u], [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Leonora[/name_f], [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Diana[/name_f] and [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f].
[name_f]Lunaria[/name_f] [name_f]Bethan[/name_f] is really nice too.
LIKE:
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Cerise[/name_f]
[name_f]Elara[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f] (cute, but reminds me of a cow for some reason. I really love the “gold” part of the name, so I’d probably use [name_f]Goldia[/name_f] as an alt)
[name_f]Octavia[/name_f] (I really like this name, it’s classic without feeling old)
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] (although I prefer it’s more modern, spunky sister Vivia)
[name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_f]Gorgeous[/name_f] list. Very springtime/breezy quality combined with classic vintage charm and spunk. Statement making names.
