[name_u]Spencer[/name_u] [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Dean[/name_u]
What do you think of them?
[name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any more suggestions for me?
Which do you think would work as sbsets?
Thank you x
Arabella Verity - Arabella is charming, Verity isn’t my favourite, so I’m not overly fond of the combo but the names do work together
Clara Emmanuelle - Clara (clah-ra) is absolutely darling, but, same as above, Emmanuelle is just not for me
Electra Liesel (Lee-suhl) - Electra is a tad too bold for me, Liesel is lovely, the combo is a bit of a name-style clash as the names are very different to me
Flora Severine - I adore Flora, Severine is not my style either as, like Emmanuelle, it’s still very masculine to me
Ginevra Mallory - as with Electra Liesel, the styles seem to clash (not as much, though), Ginevra is very vintage still and Mallory has this unisex/surname-y vibe that sounds very modern to my ears
Lavinia Felicity - a lovely combo, both names are very pretty and I especially like Lavinia
Rosalie Vasilisa - Love Rosalie but Vasilisa is a bit too complicated for my liking
BOYS
Benedict Peter - nice, classic combo
Dimitri Jasper - very different styles, again, but Jasper compliments Dimitri (instead of clashing with it)
Dominic Christian - again, very nice and classic
Henry Fox - I love Henry and Fox is sweet as a nickname but (on here) it feels like the new go-to middle name if you want to be different (which is not bad, but I’ve seen Fox a bit too much lately)
Oscar Nathaniel - lovely combo, I love Oscar and Nathaniel compliments it very well
Spencer Nicholas - I’m not too fond of Spencer (it sounds a tad too modern for me) but it works well with Nicholas
Theodore Dean - Theodore is very handsome, Dean isn’t for me but work fine with Theodore but doesn’t really “add” to the name (in my opinion of course)
Sibsets:
Arabella, Lavinia and Benedict
Flora, Henry & Oscar
Clara, Rosalie & Theodore
Ginevra, Flora and Theodore
Electra & Spencer
GIRLS
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] - pretty but too frilly for my taste
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] - love [name_f]Clara[/name_f], and this is a nice combo. maybe blends together a bit? maybe [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] or [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], or [name_f]Clarisse[/name_f] [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] nn [name_f]Clara[/name_f].
[name_f]Electra[/name_f] [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] ([name_u]Lee[/name_u]-suhl) - [name_f]Electra[/name_f] just makes me think of the [name_m]Bond[/name_m] villain and psychological complex, and is a bit of a stripper name on top of that. I prefer [name_f]Elettra[/name_f].
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Severine[/name_f] - love!
[name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] [name_f]Mallory[/name_f] - neither of these names work for me and they don’t seem to flow togheter
[name_f]Lavinia[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] - really like [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] but not [name_f]Lavinia[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Vasilisa[/name_f] - hmm, like these individually but not sure together - what about [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]?
BOYS
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m] [name_m]Peter[/name_m] - like [name_m]Benedict[/name_m], but [name_m]Peter[/name_m]'s a bit boring, pretty nice combo though
[name_m]Dimitri[/name_m] [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] - [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]'s nms, but I like [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m].
[name_m]Dominic[/name_m] [name_m]Christian[/name_m] - not bad
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m] - very stylish
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] - don’t mind [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] but I hate [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], sorry
[name_u]Spencer[/name_u] [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] - I like it
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Dean[/name_u] - pretty nice
Sibsets (a bit tricky because your girl’s names are much fancier than your boy’s names - [name_f]Lavinia[/name_f] and [name_u]Spencer[/name_u] or [name_f]Arabella[/name_f] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] don’t really go together for example):
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] and [name_m]Benedict[/name_m] [name_m]Peter[/name_m]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Severine[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] Vasilissa, and [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m]
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] - I love this. Both names match very nicely. I love [name_u]Ara[/name_u]- names, but hate -bella names…in this case though, [name_u]Ara[/name_u] wins. [name_f]Verity[/name_f] is okay, middle name only imo which you have done. I really like this combo!
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Clara[/name_f] but I wouldn’t have paired it with [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f]. My combo at the minute for [name_f]Clara[/name_f] is [name_f]Clara[/name_f] Rhianwen. I dont think that [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] match for some reason.
[name_f]Electra[/name_f] [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] ([name_u]Lee[/name_u]-suhl) - [name_f]Electra[/name_f] is a little false to me. It makes me think of electric - a thing not a name, and [name_u]Carmen[/name_u] [name_f]Electra[/name_f] - not a good association imo! I like [name_f]Liesel[/name_f], though I would say Lie-easl.
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Severine[/name_f] - [name_f]Flora[/name_f] is a little flowery to me but still pretty. I dont like [name_f]Severine[/name_f] though. I think of [name_m]Severus[/name_m] Snape and that makes me think of evil…and it also sounds like a boys name to me.
[name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] [name_f]Mallory[/name_f] - I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Mallory[/name_f]…really dislike [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] though. I reminds me of [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] - which was the dog in [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] so it makes me think of a dog…and it sounds like [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f] - which I have bad association with.
[name_f]Lavinia[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] - Its okay… I like both names a little, just not together
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Vasilisa[/name_f] - [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] is very pretty…I have no idea what [name_f]Vasilisa[/name_f] is…some kind of Vaseline maybe?
BOYS
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m] [name_m]Peter[/name_m] - I like this combo…not a huge fan of either name but they go nicely together
[name_m]Dimitri[/name_m] [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] - [name_m]Demetri[/name_m] would be nicer…[name_m]Demetri[/name_m] [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is [name_f]LOVELY[/name_f]
[name_m]Dominic[/name_m] [name_m]Christian[/name_m] -Hmm…not sure sorry
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m] - I like this!
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] - [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] this!
[name_u]Spencer[/name_u] [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] - I like these…prefer [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] but they work well
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Dean[/name_u] - [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] is lovely…its okay with [name_u]Dean[/name_u] but I would probably use something different
