HelpRe: Walterine, Geraldine, Ernestine
in reply to a message by Tippins
Clara just screams "Pwetty pwetty pwincess!" at me, so I think it clashes terribly in those combos. I know you're going for contrast, but it's like pink and lacy + crackly and harsh. It's a bit funny.
I really love Jane Ernestine and Martha Thomasina.
I want to smush Marie in front of all of them, but I think it rhymes a bit.
I made a list of masculine NNs for feminine names for a friend of mine, and ended up falling head-over-heels for Jamesina recently. :-P

Ohhh Jamesina! I forgot about her! I am crazy about Jamesina lately too and meant to ask because I have absolutely zero combos for it. Even more recent than J. is Benjamina, which is just fascinating to me.
Funny. I think one of the reasons I stick Clara with it is because I view Clara as kind of snark bundled in tutus or something, and that is kind of the effect I get with these stuffy male names + ine - like, why are you sticking this ine on me, man, this is ridiculous.
I like Marie in front of them, I emphasize the first syllable in all of them but Thomasina.
