Off your list, I really like [name_f]Aaliyah[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_u]Courtney[/name_u].

As for other names:

[name_f]Lux[/name_f] [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u] - Neither of these are names I particularly like, but [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u] doesn’t really fit here for me. What about [name_f]Lux[/name_f] [name_f]Savannah[/name_f]/[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Lux[/name_f]?

[name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Megan[/name_f] - While I love [name_f]Megan[/name_f], the flow is really off for me here, perhaps [name_f]Melanie[/name_f] [name_f]Terra[/name_f]/[name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Melanie[/name_f] works better?

[name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] - The ending of [name_f]Giselle[/name_f] runs into [name_f]Lana[/name_f], so it sounds like '[name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_f]Alana[/name_f]". Maybe [name_f]Lana[/name_f] [name_f]Giselle[/name_f] instead?

[name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] - I really like [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f], but [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] really doesn’t fit well with it. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]?

[name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] - I don’t mind alliteration, but, these are a bit awkward for me to say. What about [name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Emerson[/name_u] or [name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]?

[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] - this seems too repetitive to me, so I dislike them together, [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_f]Alayna[/name_f] could work though.

[name_f]Kendra[/name_f] Breezy - Breezy doesn’t feel like much of a name to me, so I’m not really a fan of it here - there are a lot of other nature names that would work instead, especially since, where I live, if someone is ‘breezy’ - it means they’re flatulent.

[name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] ([name_f]Missy[/name_f], [name_f]Mimi[/name_f], iaa) - I’m not loving this, but it does work. I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Marisa[/name_f] ([name_f]Mar[/name_f]-EE-sa, as opposed to [name_f]Marissa[/name_f], [name_f]Mar[/name_f]-ISS-ah) with [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] though.

Aaliyah Juliet is lovely and my favourite by far of the ten. She’s lovely

In all honesty, I feel like you have two very different styles in your favourites that don’t necessarily work together well stylistically or in terms of flow. You’ve got many 70’s/80’s specific names (meaning very common names on 20-30 year olds today - here in Australia at least) such as Megan, Jacqueline, Kelly, Marissa, Michelle and Courtney, and then very trendy type names such as Cheyenne, Lux, Sloane and Quinn. They clash and oppose one another for me and are very difficult to pair up smoothly (I tried to come up with something myself, but Lana Giselle and Madeleine Quinn is all I came up with). That said, some I do feel work either way (in both styles) such as Gemma, Lana, Madeleine and Kendra. I think too that the flow is off in a lot of the combos, which may or may not be something you care about.

Of your favorites, I especially like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], [name_f]Lux[/name_f], [name_f]Giselle[/name_f], and [name_f]Terra[/name_f].

[name_f]Lux[/name_f] [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u] - Fine how it is. Flows well.
[name_f]Aaliyah[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] - Ditto.
[name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Megan[/name_f] - I agree with [name_u]Haley[/name_u]–the matching vowels plus the repeating two-syllable pattern make this combo awkward. Suggestions: [name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], [name_f]Lux[/name_f] [name_f]Megan[/name_f]
[name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] - The L sounds blend together, turning it into Giselana. Maybe: [name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_f]Kendra[/name_f], [name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f]
[name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] - Flows okay, but the matching -ne endings irk me a little. [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] Breezy, [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_u]Sloane[/name_u]?
[name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] - Again, good flow, but they feel a little surname-y together. [name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u], [name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]?
[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] - Repeating L and N sounds feel awkward. [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] Breezy, [name_u]Courtney[/name_u] [name_f]Lana[/name_f]?
[name_f]Kendra[/name_f] Breezy - I don’t think Breezy quite holds its own in the FN spot except as a nickname (for [name_f]Breana[/name_f], [name_f]Brielle[/name_f], [name_f]Brisa[/name_f], [name_u]Aubrey[/name_u], etc.) So I’d leave this one how it is.
[name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] - Works okay as long as you’re not opposed to the alliteration. Personally, I’d be fine with alliteration if they weren’t also similarly dated names. [name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f], [name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f]?
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_u]Courtney[/name_u] - [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] feels much more timeless/versatile/pretty than [name_u]Courtney[/name_u], so I’d leave it in the FN spot. This combo works.

[name_f]Lux[/name_f] [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u] - i like [name_f]Lux[/name_f], not a big fan of [name_u]Cheyenne[/name_u], but combo works. I prefer [name_f]Lux[/name_f] with something less out there, to ground it.
[name_f]Aaliyah[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] - pretty. a bit repetitive with “liya”/“liet”. still pretty though.
[name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Megan[/name_f] - cute. [name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f], [name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Giselle[/name_f], or [name_f]Terra[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] might flow better.
[name_f]Giselle[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] - not sure the back-to-back L’s work
[name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] ([name_u]Jackie[/name_u]) - i like this one. sounds like a cool/sophisticated woman.
[name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] - cute but not super special.
[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_f]Lana[/name_f] ([name_f]Maddie[/name_f]) - better reversed to me: [name_f]Lana[/name_f] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]. [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] would be nice.
[name_f]Kendra[/name_f] Breezy * - not a fan of either name or the combo. sorry. I feel like [name_f]Kendra[/name_f] could use something more sophisticated in the middle to elevate it. [name_f]Kendra[/name_f] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]? [name_f]Kendra[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] would be cute too, and feels much less expected than [name_u]Kelly[/name_u] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]. Also like the idea of [name_f]Brisa[/name_f] or [name_u]Aubrey[/name_u] nn Breezy instead of Breezy as a stand-alone name.
[name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] ([name_f]Missy[/name_f], [name_f]Mimi[/name_f], iaa) - a bit dated but pretty/cute. I like it with a nickname better than without. A modern nickname to update it.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_u]Courtney[/name_u] - definitely leave in this order. love [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], [name_u]Courtney[/name_u] feels a bit dated to me, but the combo is nice. [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Lux[/name_f] sounds cute too altho maybe too much with gem and lux in the same name? I’d also like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f] - a lot of M, but cute. :slight_smile:
