Re: Cleo, Primrose or Yvette?
in reply to a message by Nicola
Oh dear, for a moment I thought you meant you had a child named French. :b
Claude & Georgette are both rather nice--I'm partial to Georgette as it's my middle name (after my grandfather, George). Claude isn't as overtly French as Georgette, to me at least, so you could get away with a non-French name, I think. But I wouldn't go too far one way or the other (like using Jessica or Siobhan wouldn't "fit", for instance).
Cleo - adorable, but too similar to Claude, IMO, unfortunately
Primrose - Also adorable. Could work, but seems a little immature next to Claude & Georgette to me. Maybe as a mn?
Yvette - WAY too close to Georgette. I'd go with Cleo over Yvette.
Theodore - Wonderful. Could definitely work.
Elliot - Slightly similar in sound to Georgette, but could work.
Lance - Just an unattractive name to me, but it fits in the sibset fine, I think (not too plain or too out there, etc.).
Some ideas:
Simone
Beatrice
Eve
Esmee
Estella
Elodie
Adele
Eloise
Everett
Frederic(k)
Raymond
Vincent
Simon
Philip
Vance
Dorian
Lucien
Remy
