My all time name love has been [name]Jane[/name]. Its the name of my favorite author and character, [name]Jane[/name] [name]Austen[/name] and [name]Jane[/name] [name]Bennet[/name]. But I also like [name]Finola[/name]. Its uncommon and Irish (I’m part Irish) and its just so pretty. I am torn.
Which one do you like better?
I much prefer [name]Jane[/name] ,I never much liked [name]Finola[/name] as a name ,in fact it would be one of my leat favourite Irish names but thats just me.
That’s ok actually. Not hard to say but stands out.
I’d want to shorten it to [name]Finn[/name] but I shorten everything.
[name]Finola[/name] [name]Jane[/name] sounds quite nice. Unless you had 2 daughters, in which case problem solved. Although [name]Jane[/name] could sound a little ordinary next to [name]Finola[/name].
I much prefer [name]Jane[/name] over [name]Finola[/name]. [name]Jane[/name] is such a lovely, simple name while I’m getting a completely different vibe from [name]Finola[/name]. Good luck:)
I agree with other posters - although [name]Finola[/name] is pretty, [name]Jane[/name] is special (and it has a lot of meaning for you). I think having it as a middle name would tick all the boxes, since your daughter would have something unusual and a bit more “flowery” as her second name to balance out the classic and simple beauty of [name]Jane[/name].
There’s one [name]Jane[/name] that always sticks in my mind from my experience. She was at university with me. She was studying fine art, and had huge green eyes and a sort of pixie haircut with dark hair - absolutely stunning. I remember that when I met her, the fact that her name was so classic almost made it stand out more. I have a friend called [name]Anne[/name] whose name has the same effect. Those examples really showed me how a classic name can shine through, especially one that’s gone out of common use.
I love [name]Jane[/name] more than I do [name]Finola[/name], but I think [name]Finola[/name] is a lovely name. I love the [name]Fionola[/name] [name]Jane[/name] suggestion!
