Which combo do you prefer

We are expecting number two this year, a sibling for [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]. We have a boys name set, but are still deciding on a girls name. We have narrowed it down to a few combinations, and I would be grateful for your comments on which you prefer out of the following (and why):

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]
[name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]. First of all, the flow of [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] is a less common choice but still flows great. Second of all, I prefer [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] & [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]. They’re both strong and classic names. Third of all, [name_f]Maple[/name_f] may be a difficult first name to have. It’s really unusual and has associations with syrup. Cool and adventurous names work best in the middle spot. Lastly, [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] has many awesome nicknames, like [name_u]Jo[/name_u], [name_u]Josie[/name_u], [name_u]Jojo[/name_u], Sephie, [name_u]Feeney[/name_u], [name_f]Fina[/name_f] and anything else you can think of. [name_f]Maple[/name_f] restricts its options to [name_f]Mae[/name_f].

Oh, I definitely love [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]! Stylistically, they are a match made in heaven. But don’t worry, if [name_f]Maple[/name_f] is a big crush of yours, you could call little [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] by her middle name whenever you want! I really adore your daughters’ names. Best of luck!

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]. [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] sound great together

[name_m]Ah[/name_m], first of all, I love both of the names that you have picked!

I have recently been introduced to the name [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and I like it because of family “[name_m]Joe[/name_m]” names, but not only that, how cute is nn [name_u]Josie[/name_u]? Super cute!

[name_f]Maple[/name_f] is a favorite of mine. I can see it as a first, or middle name.

However, with your daughter’s name being [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] Elosie, I much prefer [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] to [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f].
It flows better with your sibset.

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] is adorable :slight_smile:

I think [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] make a great set!

I really like the name [name_f]Maple[/name_f] but it’s a lot more unusual and has a very different feel than [name_f]Antonia[/name_f].

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] is gorgeous.

I love the strength and historic depth of [name_f]Antonia[/name_f]. [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] is the only one that shares those same characteristics.

I agree with everyone else on [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]. Wonderful choice.

I prefer [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], but [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] might go better with [name_f]Antonia[/name_f].
I don’t think names have to “fit” or “match” so I would go with [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f].

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f] gets my vote. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f]!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]. It fits perfectly! [name_f]Maple[/name_f] in the first slot does not have as much depth as [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (and [name_f]Antonia[/name_f]).
