Would love to know your opinions on [name_f]Winona[/name_f]. I’m crushing terribly on it after binge watching Stranger Things on netflix. Is it a one-person name? What would you combine [name_f]Winona[/name_f] with?

I loooove [name_f]Winona[/name_f]. I love the nickname potential ([name_f]Winnie[/name_f], [name_f]Nonie[/name_f], [name_f]Nona[/name_f]…). I just think it’s such a beautiful, lyrical name. I don’t think I’ll get to use it but I can dream, haha!

Possible combos:
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Jewel[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Solene[/name_f]
[name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f]

I think of [name_f]Wynnona[/name_f] [name_m]Judd[/name_m] and [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_m]Ryder[/name_m], so no. Not a one person name. I think it could be worn easily. :slight_smile:

I mean, I immediately think of [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_m]Ryder[/name_m] but she’s also very dear to me (on a related and completely irrelevant note, I’m loving Stranger Things as well and I’m so ready for the #Winonaissance). But I definitely think it’s usable and I don’t know about you but I would adore to share name with the [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_m]Ryder[/name_m], arguably one of the world’s most gifted actors.

I totally agree with you, [name_f]Winona[/name_f] is an awesome name with a super cool and talented namesake. DH will take some convincing though.

I thought of maybe [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f] or [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Daffodil[/name_f]…

It’s definitely not a one person name, especially now that [name_f]Wynonna[/name_f] Earp is bringing that variation to the mainstream. It’s always been familiar to me through the Judds and [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_m]Ryder[/name_m], both, so I think it’d be received just fine.

As for combos, I love your idea of [name_f]Winona[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]! I need to think on this one before giving suggestions but I wanted to reassure you first :stuck_out_tongue:
