Re: Agnes
in reply to a message by Kate
I love Agnes and think it could be ripe for a comeback. It just needs a celebrity or TV/movie character to contemporize the name a bit.
Agnes Caroline - Wonderful. The flow is great.
Agnes Margaret - Margaret and Agnes are too similar, imo. I'd go with something a little less...old than Margaret, just in case Agnes didn't like her name and wanted to go by her mn.
Agnes Irene - See Agnes Margaret.
Agnes Josephine - I think this is the best combo you have up there.
I'd ponder going with a more trendy mn if you're going to use Agnes. Like I said, Agnes may rebel against her name and she will need an appropriate mn to fall back on. Luckily for you, classic names (I'm guessing that's your taste) are popular right now. Some ideas:
Agnes Sophia
Agnes Samantha
Agnes Natalie
Agnes Victoria
Just go through the list of the most popular names for girls.
Finally, yes, Agnes and Alice are too similar for sisters.
