WDYTO Theodosia + some questions

Girl Names
1

I’ve been liking this name lately, but I don’t know how I feel about using it as a first name. I’ve always loved Theodora, but Theodosia just seems so much more lovely. If I were to use it as a FN, I’d probably call her the full name mostly, maybe Theda on occasion.

A few questions for you:

  • Do you like it?

  • What vibe does if give off?

  • Do you like it better as a first or middle, and what are a few combos you’d use?

  • Would you use a nickname (and if so, what?), or would you call her Theodosia?

  • What would you name a brother and sister?

Like it.
Cottagecore vibe.
Both ways, I would go with smth like [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_u]Marion[/name_u], [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] or [name_u]June[/name_u] [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f], [name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f].
I would use [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_f]Dot[/name_f] as a nn.
[name_m]Wilhelm[/name_m] or [name_m]Humphrey[/name_m] and [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] or [name_u]Meredith[/name_u].

I really like it! It makes me think of [name_m]Hamilton[/name_m] and the song Dear [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f]. I like it as a first name best with the nn [name_f]Thea[/name_f].

[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_u]Snow[/name_u]
[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] Luelle
[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_u]Anne[/name_u]

YES! I think of Hamilton. :slight_smile:

A kind of preppy, old-fashioned girl.

TBH I prefer it as a middle, it’s a bit clunky.

ROse Theodosia
Emma Theodosia
Florian Theodosia
Viv THeodosia

It’s too much on it’s own, it needs a nickname to balance it out. I’d call her Tia, Thea, or Theo.

Rosalind (ooh, I hate saying it) & Alexander.

  1. I like it!
  2. Frilly colonial
  3. Works equally well as a first & middle imo!
    I wouldn’t personally use these, but I think it sounds nice with
    [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_u]Rooney[/name_u] (my favourite)
    [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
    [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f]
    [name_f]Helen[/name_f] [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f]
  4. Definitely doesn’t need a nickname, but I would feel inclined to call her [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]
  5. [name_f]Sister[/name_f]: [name_f]Arabella[/name_f], [name_f]Remember[/name_f], [name_f]Araminta[/name_f], [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] Brother: [name_m]Nathanael[/name_m], [name_m]Frederick[/name_m], [name_m]Solomon[/name_m], [name_m]Archibald[/name_m]

  • Do you like it?
    — Yes, I really like the name Theodosia. It reminds me of Hamilton.

  • What vibe does it give off?
    — It gives off a fancy but still playful vibe.

  • Do you like it better as a first or middle, and what are a few combos you’d use?
    — I prefer it as a first just because there are so many great nickname options.
    Some combos:
    – Theodosia Maggie
    – Theodosia Fern
    – Theodosia Lilian
    – Theodosia Mae
    – Theodosia Maude
    – Theodosia Rosalind

  • Would you use a nickname (and if so, what?), or would you call her Theodosia?
    — I would use a nickname. There are so many possibilities. Teddy, Theda, Theo, Thea, Dosia, Dodie…

  • What you name a brother and sister?
    — Maybe Ambrose or Edmund for a brother and Rosamund or Winifred for a sister.

[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] is wonderful. So bold, distinct and charming. I’d use it as a first and some middle names I’d consider would be [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] and [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]. I’d probably end up calling her [name_f]Thea[/name_f] or [name_f]Dodie[/name_f] :slight_smile: A brother and sister would be [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] and [name_m]Horatio[/name_m]

  1. I love it! It’s one of my favourite names of all time.
  2. I feel like it gives me very bookish vibes.
  3. I like it both as a first and middle. [name_f]My[/name_f] top combo at the minute is [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f].
  4. I’d use the nickname [name_f]Thea[/name_f].
  5. [name_f]Anya[/name_f] [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] or [name_f]Belle[/name_f] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]. Not sure what I’d call a brother though.

YES! [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] is nice and [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] is just that much more nice!

I love it.
Creative yet classic. Bohemian without being weird.
Definitely a first name. Go for it!
I would call her [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f], [name_f]Theda[/name_f] :), [name_f]Dosia[/name_f], and [name_f]Dot[/name_f].
I’d give them equally special names at the right time.
