WDYTO the combo Beatrix Ida Florentine?
I recently fell in love with the name Beatrix, i think it's a playful and sweet name and at the same time it has some kind of strength.
It's Ida to old ladyish?

What do yo think of those alternatives?
Beatrix Ada Florentine
Beatrix Eva Florentine
Beatrix Ida Florence

Beatrix Ida Florentine sounds like a dish at a fancy restaurant. I'm sorry, but I really don't care for it (though Ida is lovely).

I like it. I think it flows together very well, but I prefer Beatrix Eva Florentine.

I feel the same way about the name Beatrix. It's fab! I think Ida is very pretty but yes, kind of old ladyish. I don't like Eva but Ada is very sweet and that would be my pick. Lovely choices!

I love Beatrix Ida Florentine, with Ida pronounced "ee-da". Florentine is wonderful, and I don't think the combo sounds too old-ladyish. Old, definitely, but in a fresh sort of way. Go for it!!!

I prefer Beatrice to Beatrix, and Florence to Florentine, which is a biscuit. Ida with an eye sound is not a good idea, but making it sound like EEda improves it a bit.

I'd prefer Beatrix Eva Florence - would you consider it?

I think it sounds best with Ida, then Ada. I don't like Eva.

Beatrix is okay. I think Ida Florentine would be much nicer and unexpected.

I think Ida, Ada, Florentine & Florence are fine but I really hate Beatrix, sorry.

I'm not at all keen on Ida - very dreary frumpy old ladies do spring to mind! Isolda might work. What about Ivy, which is kinda cute?
I'd like Beatrix Eva Florence

Beatrix Ida Florentine has the nicest flow of all your combos. I actually quite like it. And Ida might seem a bit 'old ladyish' to some people, but it's a middle name. No one really cares about middle names unless they are name nerds like us. :)
