[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]- This name feels lavender coloured to me. It kind of smells like vanilla or creme brulee.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]- [name_u]Sunny[/name_u], warm and buttery. Studious and sweet. It reminds me of buttercups.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]- Seaside, salty. [name_m]Gun[/name_m] metal grey and blue.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]- [name_f]Olive[/name_f] green, dappled sunlight. The smell of earth the morning after rain.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]- Old leather armchairs by the fire. The smell and feel of hot tea.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]- Steely and studious. The feel and smell of calico and new books.
I hope you don’t think I am weird- this is just what I get when I hear those names (you have great taste).
Thank you, nooshi. I do not find you weird at all. I want to hear these feelings. I have my own and interested to see other’s feelings.
I wish I was a synesthete (haha sounds like a song title). [name_f]My[/name_f] music teacher is. He said (to him) names starting with Js are gold and Ms are brown (I think). Sorry, I’ve not been much help, but I wish I could feel/smell/imagine the colours of names more clearly.
I don’t have synesthesia, the condition I thought you were referring to at first, but I’ll love imagery and colors associated with names.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]: violet in color, images of [name_f]Iris[/name_f] flowers, and twirly lace dresses
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]: cream-colored, reminds me of ducklings, baby chicks, tea parties, and baby’s breath
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]: deep blue, like the water as depicted in a maritime painting. [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] hats, salty breezes, and pedicured toenails in sand.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]: green like he forest, with rich clay underfoot, twittering birds in the trees, and a brass compass in hand. [name_m]Brown[/name_m] leather textured.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] atlas: green and blue like the [name_f]Earth[/name_f]. Reminds me of numbers, gauges, and big cable bridges aside bustling cities.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: light gray, but definitely gray, obviously. Feels glamorous, like [name_m]Gatsby[/name_m], with deep blue cuff links and shiny chrome cars.
Some of these are really random. Sorry if they don’t make sense¡
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]- Maebry kind of a lilac color, soft like spring flowers, [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] is golden & bright
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]- [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] kind of has a green color like grass, while [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] is a soft yellow
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]- [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is kind of a dark grayish purple color, [name_f]Marit[/name_f] is a royal blue
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]- [name_m]Archer[/name_m] is a goldenish/yellowish color, like autumn. [name_u]Finley[/name_u] is brown
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]- [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] is a gray color with while [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] is white
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is green but more of a hunter green, [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is a perriwinkle color. At least that’s the best I can describe them 
This is synesthesia and imagery all smooshed into sentences, so it might come out a little strange.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]: Sweet, mauve, soft blues, and then a hit of summery light greens, soft oranges and light yellows. Daisies, pansies, violas & irises. [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] brings more yellows and then a dark swoop down, then more daisies & golden sunset colours.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]: [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] days & blue flowers, followed by peaceful gardens filled with soft sunlight, and an outdoor table and chairs. [name_f]Tea[/name_f] in the sunshine while reading a good book.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]: Soft purples, greens and yellows. Sparking sunlight on the sea. An imaginative tomboy, but she also like tales of fairies and princesses and dragons.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]: Woodsy. Filtered sunlight through trees of green. A child’s handmade bow and arrows.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]: Colours of purple, yellow, blue & green that are greyed, but not at all dreary. Forests and oceans and sailing, maps and 'coon hats. [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] & [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] would be a very good pair.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: [name_f]Snow[/name_f], but no too much. Clean air, a forest with small clearings, and mountain ranges. Quiet, smart, adventurous.
Thank you all so much. I am really enjoying reading these and find myself smiling as I read.
Proud synesthete over here
Vowels have much stronger colors for me, so consonants will frequently be described as “dark” while vowels are in more detail.
Maebry Eloise -Maebry is darkish, red then white because of the ae but with yellow at the end for the y. M, B, and R are all black or blue or dark brown. Eloise is lovely- white, darkish L, blue O, yellow I, pale S, white E. Eloise is like a bird’s flight. Big beautiful dive down & rise back up, flapping, on the end of Eloise.
Emilia Sunday- Emilia is all yellow and white, except for a bit of barn-red at the A. Sunday is pale mauve pink with muted orange, pale red and yellow at the end for the -day. Lively Emilia, sunny Sunday, splatters of paint.
Waverly Marit- White for the W, red, tennis-ball yellow, white again, and all dark for the other letters. Marit- Dark M, red A, black R, yellow I and dark tan T. Not much going on here. Flat.
Archer Finley -Archer’s lovely. Red A, black R, neutral-dark CH, white E and black R. Little green in there somewhere. Finley is pale yellow and orange for the FI, dark for the NL, white for the E and yellow fro the Y. Very crisp, verging on autumn.
Quentin Atlas -Pale, almost colorless Q, pinker but still faint U, white E, neutral consonants and yellow I. Atlas is all red, bold. Quentin Atlas is a little adventurer- Atlas for the maps, Quentin for the curiosity.
Everett Gray- Everett is almost all white, except for a few dark and gray spots. Gray is, unsurprisingly, grayish, with a bit of red in the middle. Prefer the Grey spelling as it has better colors in my view- lovely pale dove gray, pearly white for the E. Everett’s all mountain peaks, cold stone, heights. Gray’s the same. Lovely.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]-
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]- [name_m]Light[/name_m] yellow. I picture a field of daisies and blue skies
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]- [name_u]Orange[/name_u] and [name_u]Red[/name_u]. [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is mysterious sounding, so it reminds me of a haunted house. [name_f]Marit[/name_f] is more sophisticated. I picture a mansion with a huge manicured lawn, large windows and tall columns on the front porch.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]- [name_u]Blue[/name_u]. I picture a forest with huge trees and lots of animals
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]- [name_u]Green[/name_u] and blue- I picture an airplane flying over large mountains
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]- You guessed it, gray! But this name is far from boring. I picture movie theater playing a silent movie with actors dressed in sophisticated dresses and tailored suits.
Thank you so much.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] - This name is yellow. It’s bright, fun and spunky and feels very warm.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] - [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] is yellow and [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] is pink - it’s girly and sweet
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f] - [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is red and [name_f]Marit[/name_f] is green, not a combination I really like very much. It feels a bit… spiky? I think that’s what I mean. It’s not my favourite.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u] - [name_m]Archer[/name_m] is blue and [name_u]Finley[/name_u] is a butter yellow. This child is very cute and has that adorable 'old-man’ish quality that some boys have.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] is purple and [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] is turquoise. It’s neither warm or cold, but it is very refined.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] - [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is yellow and and [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is lilac. It’s a sweet combination and seems very humorous to me, in that I feel a person with this name would have a good sense of humour.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]: Purples, yellows, and greens. I usually get a sense of a season but this one doesn’t do that for me. Instead I picture a library with books. I find this picture odd because [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] is all sunshine to me. So when I put that in place I get images of purple and yellow flowers.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]: [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] is soft blue and [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] is yellow. Meadows in the springtime with a picnic.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]: [name_m]Light[/name_m] and royal blue. A sunny beach in the summer with sandcastles.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]: This name is woodsy. [name_m]Archer[/name_m] is green, the combination of [name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u] brings about images of the forest. Greens, browns, and the color of the fall leaves.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]: [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] is gray and [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] is blue. A ship sailing on the blue ocean. An image of a [name_u]Winslow[/name_u] [name_m]Homer[/name_m] painting. This name travels in all seasons.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is green to me while [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is obviously grey. A winter morning in a log cabin with a snow covered landscape.
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites are [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] and all your boy names!
Wonderful. Thank you so much, everyone.
A whole thread discussing things like this would be neat! [name_m]How[/name_m] different names taste, smell, sound, feel, look, etc. to different people. I think many people likely have some form or degree of this but don’t know how to categorize it.
FIY, [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] is a pale, sugared lemon color. [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] is a lilac with hot pink spots. Together they smell like root beer floats and wind after a rain. 
They also look like a little girl with long blonde curls dancing around in her [name_f]Easter[/name_f] dress. This was one of my favorites from your list.
Interesting, I do feel things to certain names and attach ideas to them. I’m going to say in advance that I don’t mean to come off as though I’m insulting a name or degrading them in anyway.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] - happy name, something quite relaxing about the name, very calming and soothing both when spoken aloud and wrote down. I see light green and a pale orange and a tiny swirl of a dusky pink when I think of this name.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] - I find there to be something mysterious in this name, it’s a neither good nor bad kind of mysterious. I see a pale grey when I think of this name, not because it’s a boring name.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f] - mysterious, intense and calm all at the same time, the two different name make for a peculiar combination in my mind. I see red and white a lot with this one, just a hind of grey.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u] - this feels like a very safe name to me, maybe it’s because of the name [name_m]Archer[/name_m]? This is definitely a white colour. It’s very simple and that make me like it. If a name only produces one or two colours in my mind it makes it more positive to me, less complex. Weird, I know.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - superior, complex, intense, a very uplifting name. Mostly a turquoise and red name.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] - hmmm…this one is hard actually as I have mixed feelings towards both names so I’m kind of having to colour them differently. [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is totally purple with a hint a light blue of to me so I’m afraid that makes it a a scary and off putting name that I’m kind of cautious of. [name_u]Gray[/name_u] feels safe despite the fact that I don’t see the colour grey as being overly safe, I would say it’s white and light green as it’s a very pure, soothing name.
I’m sorry if half of this doesn’t make any sense.
All lovely names! I’m just not a huge fan of [name_u]Everett[/name_u], sorry.
Maebry sounds tidy.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] sounds Latina.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] sounds like a character in a 30’s play.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] sounds good looking and urban.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] sounds intellectual.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] sounds smart and naturey.
I don’t have Synesthesia (is it called that) but I usually get a pretty clear image of a name.
Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]: Maebry [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] is a burned orange to me. A canola/rape field undearneath a setting sun. The sky is orange and soft blues, clouds are going by.
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]: [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] is a “lemonade pink” to me. The name reminds me of a victorian tea party. Ladies with long dresses and big hats sit in a blooming garden.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Marit[/name_f]: Is grayish-blue to me. [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is a big city to me. Very urban. Kids sitting in the sand at a playground. [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is the little girl in jeans and t-shirt dragging her brother behind her talking him into helping them dig the “deepest hole ever”. She’s very smart, a bit cheeky, quirky definitely and a very charming young girl.
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Finley[/name_u]: [name_m]Archer[/name_m] is very cool. He runs around searching for twigs so he can make little toys out of them. He’s wading through the stream, hands holding up his trousers even though most of his clothes, including the striped shirt, are already dirty and wet. He’s laying in the grass counting clouds, trying to make out animal shapes. He’s the one sneaking into your room at 7 in the morning and then jumping on your bed trying to get you up.
Personality wise he matches [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] quite well but he’s more of a little rascal.
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]: [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] is sitting in the big leather chair, reading vintage books in the town’s old library. He has a shelf full of globes. I can see [name_m]Quentin[/name_m] being outside, the grass up to his knees, playing. As a pretend airplane he “flies” trough the field, jumping over rocks, turning left and right, being totally carefree.
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]: [name_u]Everett[/name_u] reminds me of mountains. He’s very strong. [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is quite cheeky as well but you cannot get made at him- he’s too cute about it. He very much reminds me of “Spanky” from The [name_m]Little[/name_m] Rascals.
These are all wonderful. Thank you so much, everyone.
Opheliaflora, I literally chuckled out loud at [name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] reminding you of Spanky.
I always thought he was pretty cute so the whole “rascally but being cute about it” part very much reminded me of him
