[Opinions] Re: Adelaide and Maeve
in reply to a message by Aine
I like both. Maeve, I'm not really sure why I like, I think it's the -ae- that gets me. Adelaide I love mostly because of nn Addy. Eleanor is one of my all-time top favorite girls' names and Ruby is one of my all-time most hated girls' names, sorry. :( Ruby is a fine name if that's your style, but it just strikes me wrong for some unknown reason. I like nn Norah, and Nella-Rue is pretty darn cute. I think nn Nell is terribly sweet for Eleanor. Ooh, would you care for Eleanor Ruth, nn Nella-Rue? Just a thought. :)

Oooh why had I never thought of putting Adelaide and Violet together? They are two of my favourite names! I adore the combo Adelaide Violet, thank you!
I also love Adelaide Joy, Adelaide Margaret and Adelaide Iris
Maeve Eleanor, Maeve Lucinda and Maeve Rhiannon are also lovely.
I don't dislike Eleanor Ruth, but Ruth doesn't really do anything for me, IYKWIM? It's one of those names I don't love or hate, or like or dislike- I have no feelings for it either way. Whereas Ruby reminds me of a fiery woman, yet it is still a cute name, and it has this whole 1920s air about it. Thanks for the suggestion though :)

I understand. I have some bad Ruby associations, & it's just not my thing, but if you like it, that's great. However, I have a dangerous feeling that I could fall hard for it if I met the right person with the name. :)
To each his own.
