They work very well together. Both are heavy (though only
Winifred is lugubrious) with abundant nickname opportunities. Solid and respectable, I'd assume upper-middle class.
I'm not particularly fond of
Winifred on its own. It reminds me vaguely of Winnipeg, and I prefer the "
Fred" element in masculine names -
Frederick and
Wilfred in particular.
Winnie is a bit limp, while
Freddie is self consciously tomboyish. A
Winifred would probably be studious, but also good at chopping firewood.

I enjoy
Beatrice very much, though I'm currently more partial to
Beatrix. It makes me think of
Dante's muse, and
Bee is a sweet nickname. A
Beatrice would be middle-aged or older, but with a youthful energy, and lots of laugh lines on her face. Very witty. Red-haired.
