I quite like [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f], as it keeps the posh, sweet feel of sister names [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f], but also has a separate ending sounds/letters in each name. [name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] would also be cute!

3

I prefer [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. It seems less trendy and more classic than the other two.

I voted [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. Other suggestions:

[name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Adela[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Adele[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]

I adore [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]. Vintage, beautiful, spunky. I feel neutral about [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f]/[name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] and not fond of [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f].

6

[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] because it sounds nice and classic. The ‘[name_f]Adelyn[/name_f]’ spelling looks kinda trendy which I’m personally not a fan of.

7

I voted [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]'s vintage quirky vibe.

8

I voted for [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. It flows best in my opinion, and I am loving the name [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] at the moment. I think [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] works quite well too, and is really pretty. I personally don’t find [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] trendy at all, but I do [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f].

I also love the suggestions of [name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] and [name_f]Adela[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. Though I prefer the name [name_f]Ada[/name_f] I think the later flows better and is overall more beautiful!

In my accent [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f] wouldn’t intuitively be pronounced [name_f]Ada[/name_f]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u] but something more like adder-lynn (first syllable like the snake) so I didn’t vote for that. [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] is also slightly different in my British accent (first syllable closer to adder again). [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f], especially, I feel is quite trendy, especially in comparison to [name_f]Christine[/name_f] - the final ‘y’ sound makes it very current to my ears. I’m not a huge fan of [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] but it flows well enough.

My vote went to [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. It’s not my personal style but it’s well recognised, has some vintage cred and still has multiple nn options (including [name_f]Ada[/name_f] which I love, I second considering that for a first name). It flows well and I think the two names have a more similar feel than the other options.

I think [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] to look at is somewhat strange with the repeat -ine endings, but it does flow pretty well. [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] flows the best but I like the name the least - it’s harsh to me. I like [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] the best as a name - it flows marginally less with [name_f]Christine[/name_f] but I think it’s the prettiest name. Lots of good nn options too: [name_f]Ada[/name_f], [name_f]Della[/name_f] and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f].

I equally like [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] and [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] is the more straight forward in terms of pronunciation as you’ll get people saying [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] may different ways ([name_u]Ade[/name_u]-lyn, [name_u]Ade[/name_u]-line, ade-leen). Not a fan of [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f], as the ‘lyn’ ending has become kind of associated with uneeq/trendy names.

I second the suggestions of [name_f]Adela[/name_f] or [name_f]Adele[/name_f] - both very pretty.

I am partial to:
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Adaline[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]

(not as keen on [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f])

Thanks everyone! I love the name [name_f]Adele[/name_f] but hubby isn’t keen, sadly.
I am preferring [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] and he is preferring [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] but voted [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] as I think she flows better with [name_f]Christine[/name_f]. The double ‘ine’ ending of the other two are a little bit tricky to say. I do love the suggestion on [name_f]Ada[/name_f] too.
