@VivienaLunelle123 I love [name_f]Honeysuckle[/name_f] as a middle so much! It’s one of my biggest gps, and I wish it felt more usable. It reminds me of the plant, which grew in my backyard growing up, so it reminds me of home :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I still think of that sweet smell everytime the name is mentioned!! I’m absolutely swooning over [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Honeysuckle[/name_f], [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_f]Honeysuckle[/name_f], and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_f]Honeysuckle[/name_f]! :heart_eyes:

@daisymeadows this is who I always think of when I hear the name [name_u]Rafe[/name_u] :sweat_smile:

Summary

I’m not sure if anyone else even knows who he is, but my niece loved this movie when she was younger so we watched it a bunch!
either way though, I absolutely love [name_u]Rafe[/name_u] - and think it’s so sweet and cool and such an underrated gem!!

@VioletMoon I really love the sound of [name_f]Enola[/name_f], but I always feel like its unusable. Not only is it strongly associated with [name_f]Enola[/name_f] [name_u]Gay[/name_u], but it’s also often used (especially by writers) because it’s the word ā€œaloneā€ backwards. I just wouldn’t want to give those two associations to a child, or another person. I wish it didn’t have them though, I’d really love the name otherwise!

@Kathweenie [name_u]Sage[/name_u] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] is perfect!!!

Which one is more difficult for you?
  • Finding new names I love
  • Making combos with my names
  • They are equally hard
  • Both are pretty easy for me

0 voters

I’m just curious because I feel like there are so many names I love but when it comes to making them into combos my mind goes blank :joy:

for me, inspiration comes in flashes, and then disappears. a few weeks ago, i was struck with inspiration (mostly new names that weren’t on my list), and i’m still really into those names, but i’m also kinda counting down the days until I suddenly hate all of them… :grimacing:

on combos: i’m able to come up with combos for new names that i add to my list, but if there’s a name i’ve had unpaired for a while, it’s sorta doomed to never get put in a combo.

agree 100%! rafe is such a lovely name :orange_heart:
and that character is a much better association :sweat_smile: i remember watching that movie when i was younger!

Felt that :pensive: And totally agree with you about the sudden flashes of inspiration! Definitely have had that a few times though generally the names don’t last very long haha

I prefer [name_u]Phaedra[/name_u] over [name_f]Ariadne[/name_f] in general.
I prefer the look of [name_u]Nyx[/name_u] [name_f]Ariadne[/name_f] over [name_u]Nyx[/name_u] [name_u]Phaedra[/name_u].
I think I slightly prefer the full sound of [name_u]Nyx[/name_u] [name_u]Phaedra[/name_u].
