Top Twenty + a Few More

Girl Names
1

What are your thoughts on my top twenty names for boys and girls? Some I like more than others, but I am really happy with how my list is looking right now. Also, what suggestions would you have to add?

[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Lilac[/name_f]
[name_f]Belle[/name_f] [name_f]Rosaline[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_u]Junot[/name_u] (Would [name_f]Margot[/name_f] be better? Or something else entirely?)
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u]
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_u]Simone[/name_u]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Adia[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] Avonlea [name_f]Fay[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Isadora[/name_f] [name_f]Olivet[/name_f]
[name_f]Sybil[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]

Still without combos: [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], and [name_f]Zelda[/name_f].

On my radar: [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Mary[/name_f]. [name_f]Mary[/name_f] I adore, but there is a member of my family who a truly don’t want to honor, as I even avoid the names of those I would want to honor.

Charlotte is another name I just love - but with the beautiful princess, I’m afraid of it becoming the next Emma.

Thank you for your input, feedback, and suggestions!

Ooh…

My favorites are:
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_u]Simone[/name_u] ~ My absolute favorite
[name_f]Belle[/name_f] [name_f]Rosaline[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] Avonlea [name_f]Fay[/name_f]
[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Lilac[/name_f] ~ would love [name_f]Adele[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Lilac[/name_f] more
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u] ~ Prefer the [name_f]Claire[/name_f] spelling / [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is an idea.

I like these…
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u]
[name_f]Sybil[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f]
[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Adia[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] ~ Would like [name_f]Adia[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] better
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] would be better than [name_u]Junot[/name_u]. I wish [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] was [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] & I would like that a lot!

Out of the names without combos I especially like [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f] (but prefer [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] or [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]), [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (refreshing as first but still enjoy long [name_f]Rose[/name_f]- names more), & [name_f]Zelda[/name_f]

Thank you so much! I absolutely agree - the flow of a few of them need work. And I love [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] as well. That was originally what I had, but then I wasn’t sure if I would be alright with people always hearing [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]. I also agree [name_f]Margot[/name_f] looks better in the pairing. Thanks again! I really appreciate this.

[name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f], perhaps?

5

[name_f]Sybil[/name_f] and [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] are my favorites :slightly_smiling_face:

6

I like it! Very pretty! :slight_smile:

Thank you!!

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u] - I want to like this. What a great flow and it looks so pretty. It’s eccentric with the English/[name_m]French[/name_m] combo, though. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u] is cleaner but not as compelling.

[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Lilac[/name_f] - too many 'L’s and “[name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Lilac[/name_f]” is gentle and beautiful, [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] drags it down.

[name_f]Belle[/name_f] [name_f]Rosaline[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] - hmm, again the English/[name_m]French[/name_m] combo is quirky but interesting.

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_u]Junot[/name_u] - [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] would be a perfect name. Too safe, though.

[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] - now we have English/Italian! I like it, it’s so cool.

[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] - ‘[name_f]Astrid[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]’ is harsh to my ears.

[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] - this is pretty but when I see [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] I want [name_f]Kate[/name_f] to be [name_f]Kathleen[/name_f].

[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u] - I love [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u] but I feel like it needs something more gentle and flowing than [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u] … that would be too literary, I guess.

[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_u]Simone[/name_u] - pretty

[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f] - too much “eee” sound

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Adia[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] - [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] would be lovely

[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] - reminds me of [name_f]Macy[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u], but I like it

[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] Avonlea [name_f]Fay[/name_f] - reminds of of Road to Avonlea, but I like it

[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Isadora[/name_f] [name_f]Olivet[/name_f] - too many "o"s.

[name_f]Sybil[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f] - very beautiful

[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] - don’t care for the bookend 'v’s or all the 't’s and 'o’s in [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f].

I knew I had a problem with repeating sounds, but you’ve outlined the true culprits perfectly! Thank you so much for the feedback, my names will be so lovely now. :slight_smile:

11

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you suppose [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Clara[/name_f] might be too . . . Expected?

[name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f]?
