[name_m]Abner[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] → it has a serious and smart feel to it, with a touch of outdoorsy-ness too
[name_f][/name_f]Borealis [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] “Bo” → bright and sparkly and nicely balanced [name_f][/name_f]- it’s a bold choice but [name_m]Bo[/name_m] grounds it and I can see it as a brother for [name_f]Aquila[/name_f] and [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] in particular
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Bram[/name_m] [name_m]Philip[/name_m] → love [name_m]Bram[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- gentle, literary and cool. I think [name_m]Philip[/name_m] flows well with it!
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] “Beck” → I like [name_m]Breccan[/name_m], [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] and [name_m]Beck[/name_m] but I admit I find the sounds of [name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] flow into each other a bit?
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Cedar[/name_m] [name_m]Elisha[/name_m] → do you say [name_m]Elisha[/name_m] with the LEE or LIE sound? I think I’d prefer it if it’s the LIE sound to break up the EEs but I do like this [name_f][/name_f]- woodsy, gentle, and homely, but with a kind of gravity at the same time
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Darby[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] → I was thinking about the lovely [name_m]Darby[/name_m] today [name_f][/name_f]- soft but sparky and I like the way [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] adds to the ‘bouncy’ sound but also grounds it
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] [name_m]Drury[/name_m] → this has an intriguing sound [name_f][/name_f]- sort of cowboy-meets-Telegraph. It does maybe sound a bit like a place you’d find on the map in the UK but that’s not against it
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Drake[/name_m] [name_m]Mordecai[/name_m] → I can see it in theory [name_f][/name_f]- ducks, adventure, exploration, chivalry, with something of the forest about it. However, I personally find [name_m]Drake[/name_m] very harsh and [name_m]Mordecai[/name_m] adds to that rather than smooths it. I’d be intrigued by how a third middle might alter that though
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Gilead[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] → classic but catchy [name_f][/name_f]- I like the unexpected flow
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Jules[/name_m] [name_m]Maximilian[/name_m] → handsome, international and stylish [name_f][/name_f]- he sounds like an artist, an author or a fashion designer
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Sasha[/name_f] [name_m]Maximilian[/name_m] → like above, it’s international and stylish, with a touch more gentleness [name_f][/name_f]- a bit more quirkiness
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Seamus[/name_m] [name_m]Palti[/name_m] → love how these sound together [name_f][/name_f]- tough but gentle
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Floris[/name_m] [name_m]Ivo[/name_m] → beautiful, arty, and elegant
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Simeon[/name_m] [name_m]Ebenezer[/name_m] [name_f]Peace[/name_f] → a perfect brother to [name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m] [name_m]Amory[/name_m] [name_m]Wolf[/name_m] or [name_m]Amias[/name_m] [name_m]Frederic[/name_m] [name_m]Grey[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Jules[/name_m] → solid and straight forward, though it doesn’t quite sparkle for me [name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Jules[/name_m] ‘Beck’ though
[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]?
[name_m]Zebedee[/name_m] [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] → zippy, jaunty and energetic but sweet too
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Zephan[/name_m] [name_m]Trueheart[/name_m] → poetic and kindly in feel [name_f][/name_f]- I like it a lot
