Hello everyone,

I posted a list of my possible girls’ combos just now, and have moved on to the boys’. I love names but unfortunately do not have terrific taste, and without a doubt this list is going to be all over the place, not super inventive, and a bit odd, but I would [name]LOVE[/name] to get some feedback! These are my favourite names right now and I would really appreciate it if you could tell me what works and what doesn’t, and which are your favourites and least favourites. Please be as harsh as you like. Here they are:

[name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name] (nn [name]Gus[/name])
[name]William[/name] [name]Anthony[/name] (nn [name]Will[/name])

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Willoughby[/name]
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Tristan[/name]
[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Cedric[/name]

Sorry this is so long and un-alphabetised unlike my girls’ one…!
Thank you so, so much!

What a great list! I like them all, especially [name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name].
Having said that, I’d cut [name]Gabriel[/name] and [name]William[/name] as first names and [name]Anthony[/name] as a middle on the basis that next to original choices like [name]Asa[/name], [name]Cedric[/name], [name]Hart[/name] & [name]Rune[/name], they don’t sound particularly fresh - all are very popular and [name]Anthony[/name] is a particularly predictable middle name. I do love [name]William[/name] though and I’d keep it as a middle. [name]Asa[/name] [name]William[/name] is charming.
Sorry for having focused on the few negatives; on the whole I really like the list you’ve come up with.
Good luck!

I like [name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name], [name]Jasper[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name], [name]Cedric[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] and [name]Willoughby[/name] [name]Rune[/name] :slight_smile:

[name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name]
[name]William[/name] [name]Anthony[/name]

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Willoughby[/name]
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Heath[/name]
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Frost[/name]
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Valentine[/name]

[name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name] (nn [name]Gus[/name]) – [name]Love[/name] [name]August[/name], tired of [name]Finn[/name] and hate the nn [name]Gus[/name]. I prefer Auggie. The combo goes really well together though.

[name]William[/name] [name]Anthony[/name] (nn [name]Will[/name]) – I have bad personal associations with [name]Anthony[/name], but I love [name]William[/name]. It’s very regal and handsome and the combo works and sounds good together.

[name]Eli[/name] [name]Jasper[/name] – I think the flow here isn’t the best, but I think it sounds fine. I prefer a full name for [name]Eli[/name] (like [name]Elijah[/name]).

[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Finn[/name] (nn [name]Gabe[/name]) – Good flow, sounds handsome, tired of both names personally.

[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name] – I think the flow would be better as [name]Nicholas[/name] [name]Jasper[/name], but overall, a strong name.

[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Finn[/name] – Sounds fine, [name]Jasper[/name] is handsome, if a bit raspy sounding for my taste, but it flows well.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Finn[/name] – I can’t make myself like [name]Asa[/name] for some reason, don’t know why, and I don’t think it sounds particularly good with [name]Finn[/name].

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Asa[/name] – The flow is bad here. I prefer [name]Cedric[/name] to [name]Asa[/name], but the flow would work better as [name]Asa[/name] [name]Cedric[/name].

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Finn[/name] – Dislike [name]Finn[/name] with [name]Cedric[/name]. I do like [name]Cedric[/name] though. It’s handsome and old fashioned.

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] – I like this one, but would like it better as [name]Lewis[/name] [name]Cedric[/name]. [name]Lewis[/name] is so strong and handsome and [name]Cedric[/name] accentuates it nicely.

[name]Finn[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] – [name]Lewis[/name] [name]Finn[/name] would sound so much better. The flow sounds choppy to me with it like this.

[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Anthony[/name] – [name]Love[/name] [name]Lewis[/name], dislike [name]Anthony[/name], but overall the combo sounds fine.

[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Ronan[/name] – [name]Love[/name] this one but I would love it so much more as [name]Ronan[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]. So handsome and old world sounding.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name] – I dislike this combo. I don’t think it flows well and I don’t like the repeating S sounds.

[name]Finn[/name] [name]Elliott[/name] – [name]Elliott[/name] [name]Finn[/name] would have better flow, but it’s a fine combo. [name]Love[/name] [name]Elliott[/name]. It’s the kind of name I can picture on any type of boy.

[name]Finn[/name] [name]Heath[/name] – Very choppy here, dislike it.

[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Heath[/name] – [name]Don[/name]'t like the way [name]Lewis[/name] sounds with [name]Heath[/name]. [name]Lewis[/name] is such a nice name and [name]Heath[/name] sounds really hissy with it.

[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Grey[/name] – [name]LOVE[/name]! Strong, handsome with just the right amount of spunky.

[name]Finn[/name] [name]Valentine[/name] – I generally think [name]Valentine[/name] is a bit much for a boy to have to wear, but I think with a better first name it could work. [name]Cedric[/name] [name]Valentine[/name] or [name]Lewis[/name] [name]Valentine[/name] or something.

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Frost[/name] – I love this one! Old fashioned and handsome meets modern and edgy.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Hart[/name] – I sort of like [name]Hart[/name] here. I think it makes [name]Asa[/name] sound a bit better. The combo still sounds way too short for me.

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Hart[/name] – [name]Hart[/name] isn’t my style, but I really think it works here. I like this combo.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Heath[/name] – Something about this combo makes me want to grind my teeth. [name]Hope[/name] you aren’t offended! I think it’s all the hissy sounds.

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Heath[/name] – For some reason, [name]Heath[/name] just isn’t working with any of your names for me. It might just be me, but I just don’t like the way it sounds with [name]Cedric[/name].

[name]Willoughby[/name] [name]Rune[/name] (nn [name]Will[/name]) – [name]Willoughby[/name] sounds like one of those names you would see on a rich, snooty kid. [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Rune[/name] though. It was on my own list for a while. I think the combo sounds fine in general, just nms.

[name]Simon[/name] [name]Bennett[/name] – [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Simon[/name] and while [name]Bennett[/name] isn’t my style, I think it sounds great with [name]Simon[/name]!

[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Rune[/name] – See, I think [name]Rune[/name] works so much better here with [name]Cedric[/name]. To me, it works the same way [name]Frost[/name] did. [name]Cedric[/name] is old fashioned and handsome, [name]Rune[/name] is modern (but also has old world roots) and edgy.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Rune[/name] – [name]Rune[/name] works the same way here with [name]Asa[/name]. It spices up the combo.

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] – [name]Love[/name] this one! [name]Tristan[/name], to me, is old world, romantic hero (think [name]Tristan[/name] and [name]Isolde[/name]) and [name]Lewis[/name] is adventurous and handsome. Works really well!

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Jasper[/name] – I don’t think this works. The repeating S sounds in the beginning of both names isn’t doing it for me.

[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Tristan[/name] – I don’t think this sounds nearly as good as [name]Tristan[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]. The flow is off.

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Willoughby[/name] – Dislike this one. The styles class way too much for me.

[name]Asa[/name] [name]Tristan[/name] – It sounds fine, but I would prefer it turned around.

[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Cedric[/name] – I like it. Sounds good, love the style, handsome!

Ok I’ll be harsh. I like many of your names though!

[name]August[/name] [name]Finn[/name] (nn [name]Gus[/name])- To me, this sounds a bit like “[name]Winter[/name]'s Bone” or something, like [name]August[/name] is describing [name]Finn[/name].
[name]William[/name] [name]Anthony[/name] (nn [name]Will[/name])- Too square for me. I like [name]William[/name] [name]Finn[/name], for its pleasing slight-rhyme.
[name]Eli[/name] [name]Jasper[/name]- Nice, but I slightly prefer [name]Eli[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name].
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Finn[/name] (nn [name]Gabe[/name])- Yes.
[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]- Ok.
[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Finn[/name]- yes.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Finn[/name]- Not enough substance imo. I like [name]Asa[/name] though. [name]Asa[/name] [name]Rune[/name], [name]Asa[/name] [name]Ronan[/name], [name]Asa[/name] [name]Willoughby[/name]
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Asa[/name]- Too much runtogetherness.
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Finn[/name]- Feels kind of …tight
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]- Yes.
[name]Finn[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]- [name]Lewis[/name] is the more substantial name, so it’s funny in the middle place, imo. [name]Lewis[/name] [name]Finn[/name], yes.
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Anthony[/name]- meh.
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Ronan[/name]- [name]Lewis[/name] has a sense of humor, [name]Ronan[/name] is so sincere and weighty Celtic… I think they’re mismatched.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]- No. Again, [name]Nicholas[/name] is the more substantial name, so it feels imbalanced to me.
[name]Finn[/name] [name]Elliott[/name]- Prefer [name]Elliott[/name] [name]Finn[/name].
[name]Finn[/name] [name]Heath[/name]- [name]Love[/name] [name]Heath[/name]. [name]Finn[/name] [name]Heath[/name] sounds like “beneath” to me. [name]How[/name] about: [name]Elliott[/name] [name]Heath[/name], [name]Simon[/name] [name]Heath[/name], [name]Ronan[/name] [name]Heath[/name], [name]Heath[/name] [name]Anthony[/name], [name]Cedric[/name] [name]Heath[/name]
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Heath[/name]- I feel that [name]Heath[/name] is too rugged next to [name]Lewis[/name]. [name]Lewis[/name] wears wingtips.
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Grey[/name]- Sure.
[name]Finn[/name] [name]Valentine[/name]- No. [name]Eli[/name] [name]Valentine[/name].
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Frost[/name] - Hm. [name]Simon[/name] [name]Frost[/name] was a name I was loving for a while, until I decided it sounded like some sort of bitter old character from Dickens. I still kind of love it. [name]Cedric[/name] [name]Frost[/name] has some of the same chilly harshness.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Hart[/name]- Too breathy.
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Hart[/name]- Yes.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Heath[/name]- Again, too breathy for me.
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Heath[/name]- Yes.
[name]Willoughby[/name] [name]Rune[/name] (nn [name]Will[/name])- I like [name]Willoughby[/name], but I prefer [name]Rune[/name] with a more modern name. [name]Willoughby[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name], [name]Willoughby[/name] [name]Hart[/name]
[name]Simon[/name] [name]Bennett[/name]- Yes.
[name]Cedric[/name] [name]Rune[/name]- Dislike the flow.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Rune[/name]- Yes.
[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]- [name]Tristan[/name] is so romantic… I prefer [name]Tristan[/name] [name]Hart[/name], [name]Tristan[/name] [name]Heath[/name], [name]Tristan[/name] [name]Rune[/name], [name]Tristan[/name] [name]Elliott[/name]
[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Jasper[/name]- Yes.
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Tristan[/name]- No.
[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Willoughby[/name]- Yes.
[name]Asa[/name] [name]Tristan[/name]- No.
[name]Tristan[/name] [name]Cedric[/name]- Yes.
