Apologies, I don’t mean to spam but could I get opinions on this sibset?

[name_u]Sean[/name_u]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_u]Hazel[/name_u]
[name_f]Niamh[/name_f]

I like this set. [name_f]My[/name_f] only slight hesitation is with [name_u]Sean[/name_u] and [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] together - they somehow clash for me. I think I’d prefer [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] - but I do like the 2 x 1 syllable and 2 x 2 syllable. Maybe I would mix it up with [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m] or something else altogether, just to break the pattern. But overall, it’s a lovely set!

I think they work :slight_smile: Familiar, but mostly underused. The only one that sticks out to me is [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] as a bit more popular and not quite so sparky or rugged as the others

I really like them all together. They’re like a storybook set—love it.

I think [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] (at least in the US) is the standout because of its nonstandard spelling/pronunciation clash in [name_f]English[/name_f]. The others (at least in the US) are all pretty common.

I’m in [name_u]Ireland[/name_u], so [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] is as common as the rest tbh. [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] is the standard spelling. I’m not sure how it’s spelled in the US

Then it would be fine! To get the correct pronunciation, you’d need to spell it Neeve or something similar probably.

She’s in [name_u]Ireland[/name_u] so [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] will be correctly pronounced there. [name_f]Niamh[/name_f] was my number one baby name but I live in the US now so I couldn’t use it because of mispronunciation and I didn’t want to change the spelling. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it.
