I was so between [name_f]Viola[/name_f] and [name_m]Artemis[/name_m]! I went with [name_m]Artemis[/name_m] in the end for its strength, unexpectedness (yet familiarity) and the charming nickname options!
I adore [name_f]Delphinia[/name_f], [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f], and [name_f]Viola[/name_f]! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f] got my vote since I like her best with [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], but they’re all darling options, and [name_m]Artemis[/name_m] [name_f]Rita[/name_f] is really lovely too!
Some lovely choices! I think [name_f]Viola[/name_f] is absolutely perfect with [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], and with [name_f]Rita[/name_f] as a middle. I like [name_m]Artemis[/name_m] best as a stand alone name, but I’ve always thought her and [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] have a very similar cadence/flow out loud (despite appearing so different on paper).
I picked [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f], as I love the punchy letters as with [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], and the flow with your surname is so fun. However, [name_f]Viola[/name_f] is also stunning and brings a more historical edge to the sibset. [name_f]Delphinia[/name_f] and [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] probably get third and fourth place from me!
