[name_f]Amalia[/name_f] Esmè - [name_f]Esme[/name_f] is lovely, but [name_f]Amalia[/name_f] is trendy and lessens the elegance. [name_f]Arabella[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f], [name_f]Maelys[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f].
Lèia [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] - [name_f]Leia[/name_f] is a spelling only seen in [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars, to my knowledge, so the accent is superfluous. It’s a nice sound, but both names are a tad bland.
[name_f]Olive[/name_f] [name_f]Mina[/name_f] - [name_f]Olive[/name_f] is cute, but [name_f]Mina[/name_f] is meh. [name_f]Olive[/name_f] [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f], [name_f]Oliva[/name_f] [name_f]Saskia[/name_f].
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Karma[/name_f] - [name_f]Karma[/name_f] is a little too hippie-dippy for my taste, plus it contrasts with the stark, regal [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Cora[/name_f], or if you’d like something hippie, [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Coral[/name_f].
[name_f]India[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] - [name_f]India[/name_f] has a lovely sound, but comes with some baggage. [name_f]Christine[/name_f] feels a bit dated. [name_f]India[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], [name_f]India[/name_f] [name_f]Christabel[/name_f].
[name_f]Fatima[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] - I know that [name_f]Fatima[/name_f] has a lot of historic and cultural roots, but I’m afraid that school children will only see the first three letters. It’s also commonly mispronounced both in the US and UK as fat-ih-muh, rather than fah-tee-muh, as I believe it’s correctly pronounced. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is gorgeous.
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] - [name_f]Athena[/name_f] is okay. [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f].
[name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Luz[/name_f] - [name_f]Freya[/name_f] and [name_f]Luz[/name_f] have totally different themes and sounds. I love [name_f]Freya[/name_f] on its own, but not with [name_f]Luz[/name_f]. [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f], [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f].
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f] [name_u]Abril[/name_u] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_f]Liv[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] - [name_f]Liv[/name_f] is too nicknamey. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is pretty, if dated.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_f]Thalia[/name_f] [name_f]Paige[/name_f] - I adore [name_f]Thalia[/name_f], but [name_f]Paige[/name_f] flattens and stifles it. [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f], [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f], [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f].
[name_f]Gwyneth[/name_f] [name_u]Campbell[/name_u] - cute, but there’s a television show character called [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] [name_u]Campbell[/name_u], so it reminds me of that.
[name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_f]Cora[/name_f] - adorable. I love it. Quirky but cute.
[name_u]Logan[/name_u] [name_f]Esmeralda[/name_f] - Total disjointedness in style, here. I despise [name_u]Logan[/name_u] on a girl, but especially not with a princessy name like [name_f]Esmeralda[/name_f].
[name_u]Ivory[/name_u] [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] - [name_u]Ivory[/name_u]'s sound is pretty, but it evokes images of the brutal trade.
[name_f]Nina[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] - again, disjointed style here. Not a huge fan of [name_f]Nina[/name_f].
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f] [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] [name_m]Enoch[/name_m] - not my style, but a solid combo.
[name_u]Van[/name_u] [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] - [name_u]Van[/name_u] just reminds me of the overlarge vehicle. [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] is nice.
Castiel [name_u]Alexis[/name_u] - I like the name Castiel, though it’s very much associated with the cult television show, Supernatural, where I assume you were introduced to it. Not a bad thing, just be aware.
[name_m]Uriah[/name_m] [name_u]Eden[/name_u] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_m]Hezekiah[/name_m] [name_m]Noe[/name_m] - not a fan of either of these names.
[name_u]Dean[/name_u] [name_m]Ivan[/name_m] - both of these names are nice, but the similar endings make them a so-so match.
[name_m]David[/name_m] [name_m]Walter[/name_m] - both of these names are a little dated, but a nice combo.
[name_u]Grady[/name_u] [name_u]Cruz[/name_u] - disjointed style, not a fan of either name.
Dantè [name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] - both of these names are very dramatic. That’s not a bad thing (hey, I like [name_m]Aristotle[/name_m] and Archimedes) but maybe not together.
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] [name_m]Mark[/name_m] - cute.
[name_u]Asa[/name_u] [name_m]Cullen[/name_m] - [name_u]Asa[/name_u]'s nice, if prone to mispronunciation, though I despise [name_m]Cullen[/name_m].
[name_m]Geoffrey[/name_m] [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] - I actually know a [name_m]Geoffrey[/name_m] [name_m]Abraham[/name_m]. Solid name. I dislike [name_m]Geoffrey[/name_m], though.
[name_m]Austin[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m] - meh.
[name_m]Julius[/name_m] [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] - I like both of these names separately, but not together, oddly.
[name_m]Simon[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] - Ditto.
[name_m]Uriel[/name_m] [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] - the combo is nice, but I’m not a fan of these names.
[name_m]Israel[/name_m] [name_m]Gideon[/name_m] - I like this one a lot.
[name_m]Hector[/name_m] [name_m]Julian[/name_m] - I love [name_m]Julian[/name_m], [name_m]Hector[/name_m], not so much.
[name_m]Ephraim[/name_m] [name_m]Roman[/name_m] - nice.
[name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] - [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_u]Emory[/name_u] flows better.
[name_m]Heath[/name_m] [name_m]Vaughn[/name_m] - sounds like a fake movie star. Take with that what you will.
