[Opinions] Re: Short-listing middle names for our twins
in reply to a message by araslanka
Tamsin Elodie and Maeve Seren are my picks. They're both gorgeous.
Tamsin Aveline is awfully sing-songy. How are you pronouncing Mai? If it's like May I much prefer that spelling. If it's "my" I really dislike it. Either way it's a bit M-heavy with Tamsin, and too close to Maeve. I'm not a huge fan of Aria but Tamsin Aria is quite nice. Tamsin Rose is fine but Rose is so overused as a middle name (it's my own middle name, so I should know!).
Maeve Anya, Maeve Aria, and Maeve Enya run together into May Vanya / May Varia / May Venya. Maeve Emmeline is lovely and my second choice.
Please don't ruin Maeve with Mackenzie!

Thanks ^_^
I guess Tamsin Aveline is kinda songy. We're pronouncing it "my" only the sound is really more like "mine" where you stop just before the N. You don't like it? Tamsin Mai is one one my favourites of these.
I guess Rose is popular as a middle name but maybe because it sounds beautiful with everything!
Oh... Maeve Anya does do that. Ah, that's not fair! I really liked that one. Are Varia and Venya actually names though?
