Thoughts on ... too much?

I love these 3 names together. I know the last is particularly a bit guilty pleasure. I do always use 3 names (two middles) but is this too much …

[name_f]Tawny[/name_f] [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f] [name_f]Minnow[/name_f] …

my biggest issue with the combo is that the combination of 2 word names makes it sound a bit like a species of animal. like, “this is the tawny [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f] minnow, not to be confused with the gray [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f] minnow…”

I actually love the name [name_f]Minnow[/name_f], and it’s my favorite name in the combo. I just think it would be better without another word name (or, even with another word name, as long as it’s not an adjective that could make the combo sound descriptive)

I think I feel similarly to @SparkleNinja18, partially because I feel like I mostly hear Tawny as used to describe animals rather than just a general word. It’s not so much that there are two words, but because of the two words themselves.

Still, would most people know both her middles? Probably not. So, unless your surname is also wordy, I think it could work if you love it

These are really helpful thoughts thank you :blush:

What about using a different first name with [name_f]Tawny[/name_f] as a nickname? You’d still get to use [name_f]Tawny[/name_f] but the full combo wouldn’t have the same “wordiness”. [name_f]Tanya[/name_f] comes to mind, and I think [name_f]Antonia[/name_f], [name_f]Tiana[/name_f], or [name_f]Tiffany[/name_f] could also work.

Ohh this is an idea I hadnt even thought of and I am really liking! Thank you! :slight_smile:
