[Opinions] Theodora
I have been pondering this for a few days and I am pretty sure I like Theodora better than Dorothea...WDYT of Theodora nn Dot and Dottie?
Theodora Eulala?
Theodora Eibhlin? (ave-leen)
Theodora Carys?
Which one is your favourite and why? Any other suggestions?
Also, WDYT of these?
Alice Frances or Alice Beatrix?
Grace Amaryllis Octavia?
Thanks!

I definitely prefer Theodora to Dorothea. I like nn Thea, but Dot would be cute. I'm not crazy about Dottie. I like Theodora Eibhlin best of your options. Eibhlin lends some life, I think, to the more solid and old-fashioned Theodora. Also, I like the look and sound. Theodora Carys would take second place.
I would definitely vote Alice Frances. Grace Amaryllis Octavia is pretty, though Grace Amaryllis would be nice too. I think Grace is beautiful as a fn, so much better than when used as a mn.
A few other suggestions for Theodora (I don't know if any will be your style):
Theodora Abigail
Theodora Faith
Theodora Ivy
Theodora Lorraine
Theodora Maeve
Theodora Gwyneth
Theodora Rachel
Theodora Truth
Theodora Evelyn
Theodora Bronwen
Theodora Elspeth
Theodora Celeste
Theodora Guinevere

I definitely prefer Theodora over Dorothea, and Dottie is cute for a nickname.
Out of your combos, I'd say I like Theodora Carys the best, since it has nice flow to it.
Here are my suggestions for middle names:
Lillian
Simone
Linden
Bethany
Clementine
Winifred
I love the name Alice :) Alice Frances sounds good.
Grace Amaryllis Octavia... Not really my style, but I do like it.

Theodora nn Dot/tie is very cute. :) Of your listed combos, Theodora Eulala has the best ring to it. It sounds sweetly old-fashioned.
Of the other combos, I really like Alice Frances and prefer it over Alice Beatrix.
Grace Amaryllis Octavia does nothing for me. Grace Octavia would be nice, but Amaryllis is a little too ostentatious for my tastes.
