It's great to see Agnes on a list for an actual child. I wish there were more of them around. Christopher Adair is very dashing. If he didn't have good looking genes before he was born, that name alone will bestow them. :-)

Liam Alexander and Rowan Daniel are sooooooo handsome. Too much goodness for one family to have all to itself.

Thoughts?I wasn't feeling any of my usual combos today so all but one of these combos are completely on-the-spot (I've been playing with Zelda Hollis for a while). I'm kinda extremely proud of Ezra Fox, if it gets good feedback, it's totally going on my all time favorites list. Also, I was having trouble deciding between Mars and Lars, I adore Lars but I didn't think it felt right with August. G/G: Zelda Hollis & Iris Grey

I love Zelda Hollis and Ezra Fox, though I do prefer Hollis on a boy and Fox on a girl. I could I interest you in Zelda Fox and Ezra Hollis?

At this very moment I'm feeling pretty adventurous, so they'd probably be...(g/g) Juniper Athena & Allegra Soleil

(b/b) Sullivan Russell & Frederick Samuel

JuniperI adore the name Juniper. Juniper Athena is a lovely combination. I love the way you mix nature and Greek mythology. Every young hero in a story should be named Frederick. There should be a law.

I'm liking Frederick more and more lately. My boyfriend's favorite uncle is Freddie, and the increasing exposure to Frederick is really making it grow on me. It's quite handsome.Juniper Athena actually JUST hit me this morning. Usually I stick with Juniper Pearl (I know, I know, very "Benny & Joon"), but for some reason Athena popped up and I like it!Thank you for your kind words :)

Elsa Caroline!Woot, woot!

Glad you like it, you have great taste in names :DElsa honours two friends, and Caroline is my mother's name.

OK. This is evidence.I've followed your terrific polls and often wondered what you'd whittle your names down to. And now I know. :-)Oh, to meet a Eulalie in real life one day . . . .

Same old names as alwaysGirl/Girl:
Ellen and Astrid (which is problematic since I want to use Astrid as a mn for Ellen)Boy/Boy:
August and IsidoreGirl/Boy:
Ellen and AugustI'm not sure about Astrid and Isidore but Ellen and August are pretty much set.

Well, if you have two girls, just dress one of them up as a boy and call her August. :-) "Ellen Astrid" is too nice to break up.

ElsaOh, please name a little girl Elsa. It's so elegant yet overlooked. We need more of them.
vote up1
Yes, one of my daughters will definetely be named Elsa (probably middle name, but maybe I will use it as her first name). My grandma's name is Elsa, my mom's name is Elsa as well (even though she has always been called Elka) and one of my middle names is Elsa as well. The funny thing is that my mom has a cousin named Elso :P
vote up1
I am excited to hear the positive messages about the name Elsa. We are torn between using Elisabeth (hard to say fast and a name used by two in-laws already) or Elsa. We've been lately leaning toward Elsa because it's only two syllables and because its unused in the family. Opinions?
vote up1
Yay!I've already noted above that I think the world needs more Elsas. It's sophisticated, but sweet at the same time. :-)Not that you asked, but it's very versatile combination-wise:Elsa Charlotte
Elsa Mary
Elsa Beatrix
Elsa Johanna
Elsa Catherine / Cathleen
Elsa Margaret / Margot
Elsa Jessamine
Elsa Caroline (of course)
Elsa Meadow
Elsa Liv
Elsa Julie
Elsa Chloe
Elsa Germaine
Elsa Linden (you could plant a linden tree and watch them grow together)
Elsa Grace
Elsa Bridget
Elsa Gwendolen
Elsa JosephineI could go on and on. Are you interested in hearing more? Or have you already settled on a mn?
vote up1
Keep the Elsa middle names comin'. Right now I am loving Elsa Margaret, but I 'd love to hear what else you can come up with. We are on the fence between Elsa and Elisabeth. I think I may prefer Elsa because it eliminates nickname options that come with the longer Elisabeth, but because it is so much shorter, I need different middle names for Elsa.
vote up1
I prefer Elsa. You could also name her Elisabeth and nickname her Elsa. I think I prefer Elsa on its own, though. It has such a nice sound and isn't so long and not so common. Elisabeth is beautiful but very popular. The thing is that you get many nicknames from Elisabeth: Liz, Lisa, Beth, Betty, Elisa, Ellie, Lily etc which is nice and you just get Elsie from Elsa. Still I would go with Elsa :)

Eugene / EugeniaI'm so glad that someone is thinking about Eugene for a son. It's one of those overlooked classics that's in danger of dying out. And the feminine form Eugenia is regal. My gawd, if I met a little Eugenia I think I would have to kirtsy (sp?). Delightful. :-)

I heard Alessa for the first tie the other day. It's intriguing. Is it on the rise? I hope so. It's very historic sounding. Tallulah is so adorable.

b/b- Caspian Bjorn/ Owen Cade - I like Caspian, Bjorn not so much and Owen Cade flows well, both it's a bit short
b/g- Susanna Eve/ Charles Lorcan - Susanne is okay, bt doesn't flow with Eve (and I prefer Suzanne or Susannah), I dislike Charles but I think Lorcan is very nice.

g/g Willow Jane and Isobel Rose - Nice! :)
b/b Phoenix Caden and Jacob Grant - I like the sounds of Phoenix Caden (although Caden Phoenix would flow better), but I don't really like Phoenix as an actual name for a real kid. I liek Jacob and Grant goes well with it.
b/g Phoenix Grant and Willow Jane - Phoenix flows better with Grant than with Caden I think. Phoenix and Willow sound slightly hippy-ish together, but that doens't really bother me.

Willow Jane and Isobel Rose have to be my favorites, but Phoenix Grant is really nice too.
