HelpRe: Walterine, Geraldine, Ernestine
in reply to a message by Tippins
Clara Ernestine and Clara Geraldine are nice. Clara's utter prettiness offsets the harsh masculinity of the mns, which I like (mismatch-y combos like that always make me happy). I think you'd need a really dainty and feminine (note: NOT necessarily pwetty pwetty princess) name just like Clara for these kinds of combos to work. Feminine, but not fragile, names like Catherine, Martha, and Edith don't work as well as names like Clara and Jane.
Walterine makes me think of Listerine.
Alice Geraldine? Marie Ernestine? Julia Thomasina?

Marie Ernestine's perfect. I'm gonna experiment with some lighter FN's for these, I think. I've always viewed Martha as one tick darker than Clara, and Thomasina as one tick lighter than Ernestine and Geraldine, but I agree that there's something slightly too heavy about Edith. Alice is the perfect weight and attitude, but I can't stand almost any Alice combo for some reason.
