Re: Cora and Combos

I'd make the following changes:
Amalia Faith -I really dislike Amarilla and I want to say ah-mah-REE-yah, like the Spanish word for yellow. Florence grates on me.
Camelia Suzanne -Camellia Susan is nice too, though. I adore Camellia but I'm not sure how realistic it is--I'd spell it Camelia to make it a Romanian name.
Charlotte Isolde -Constance sounds so cold and harsh, and I hate Connie.
Melanie Jane -Felicity is one of my least favorite names ever, and Flick does not improve it. I think Melanie has sort of a similar style, though.
Helen Lavender-I really like Lavender, though I don't think it's practical in the real world. Frances has such an ugly sound to me, and with Lavender there's too much AN sound. Helen has a similar "feel" to me.
Meredith Pearl -I like Meredith but prefer it as a middle name due to it's masculinity. Paget is horrible, sorry. It's a surname and a disease, and with Meredith it's such a masculine combo.
Rosanna Acacia -Ravenna is really tacky and trashy, sorry. I don't care for Acacia but it's okay in the middle.
Olivia Maris -I like Octavia, but I really don't think it's usable.
Alice June -Alys looks tryndee, even though it isn't, and it would be forever being misspelled. I really dislike June, though there's nothing wrong with it.
Cora is nice, though I prefer it as a nickname for Coralie. Cora Noelle, Cora Naomi, Cora Sophia, Cora Madeleine / Cora Madeline, Cora Isabel, and Cora Violet come to mind.
