I have a whole page worth of combos, and I’m trying to pare down that list. DH is on board with most of these. He hasn’t heard a couple of them. These are my top 1 (or 2) for my favorite first names. Any and all thoughts/suggestions welcome! Thank you!
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] (love [name_f]Augusta[/name_f], and it’s the city where my mom was born, so I incorporate it a lot)
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Susan[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f]
[name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] (probably my current fave)
[name_f]Shoshana[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f]
[name_f]Greer[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f]
[name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] (DH’s grandmother was [name_u]Audie[/name_u], and this may be my #2 combo)
[name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f]
My favorites from your list:
[name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f]
[name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
I also like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] as first names.
Personally, not a huge fan of [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_f]Shoshana[/name_f], and [name_f]Greer[/name_f]. [name_f]Greer[/name_f] because I always prefer more feminine names. [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] is cute but I always think of it as a cartoon character name. OF course, these are my personal opinions and other than [name_f]Greer[/name_f], I like them all moderately.
My personal favorite combination is [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f], followed by [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]. I think that [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] is a more traditional name, while [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] has a certain edge to it that I absolutely adore. I also like [name_f]Jane[/name_f] Hermoine and [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f]. I’m not a huge fan of [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] and [name_f]Greer[/name_f], but the more I thought about it, the more I could see [name_f]Greer[/name_f]'s appeal. It’s sound reminds me of Briar, which is becoming more popular, but [name_f]Greer[/name_f] is more unique, and would stand out in a crowd. However, I prefer more feminine names, so it’s spelling throws me off a bit, though that’s just my personal opinion. A name combo I thought of while looking at your list was [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f]. I love [name_f]Alice[/name_f] as a first or middle name:)
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] is also in the mix. I think my husband is more keen on that combo than [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f].
I like [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f], [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], and [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] the best, in that order, though [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] would be nicer than [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] I think.
The first thing that came to mind when I read your list was [name_f]Greer[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f]! I love the short, spunky, cool [name_f]Greer[/name_f] paired with the traditional, timeless, elegant [name_f]Augusta[/name_f]. That would get my vote.
I also like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] and [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f].
Lose:
[name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] (not a fan of alliteration)
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Susan[/name_f]
I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]Audie[/name_u]! [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is my favorite, but [name_u]Audie[/name_u] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is sweet too. I also like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f] a lot.
