[Opinions] Reconsidering my Jeanette-combo + question about pronunciation...
For a long while now, my favourite Jeanette-combo has been Jeanette Sylvie Corisande. The last few days, though, I've been considering other middle name choices as Sylvie and Corisande don't seem as fresh as they once did. :( Lately, I've been liking the following combinations:Jeanette Aurora Melisande
Jeanette Aurore Melisande
Jeanette Lilac Melisande
Jeanette Luna MelisandeWhat do you think? Comments and/or suggestions?Another question I have concerns the pronunciation of Corisande. I've been pronouncing it 'cor-ih-SAHND'. Would that be correct?

For what it's worth, I love Jeanette Sylvie Corisande; it's definitely my favorite of the combos you listed. However, of the alternatives, I like the flow of Jeanette Lilac Melisande the best.Hope that helps!

I love Corisande. :-D Jeanette Aurora Melisande - Jeanette is such a down to earth name, paired with with these two it's a little melodramatic.
Jeanette Aurore Melisande - Ditto
Jeanette Lilac Melisande - I like this. I'd prefer Jeanette Lilac Corisande, actually.
Jeanette Luna Melisande - Eh. Luna and Jeanette bring to mind two very different people. I like Luna Melisande quite a bit.I've always heard Corisande as Cor-ih-SANDA, but your pronunciation is fine. :-D One needn't always be so correct with names that are so uncommon.

Thanks.You've given me some food for thought. I do believe I'm suffering from Jeanette MacDonald overload (I've spent the weekend watching MacEddy and Jeanette movies, lol.), which explains the melodramatic combos. :)I do rather like Jeanette Lilac Corisande. I'm trying to decide whether the 'C' at the end of Lilac and beginning of Corisande bother me. They run together, but they seem to complement Jeanette so nicely... I do think I want to keep the combo close by. ;)Thank you!

Thank you. :)I like the names Madeleine and Zoë, but I don't really like them in a combo with Jeanette and Melisande. Thank you for the suggestions, though. :)
