Re: Antoinette
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
Not that I am really much one for either name, but I rather like Antoinette Adelaide (with an umlaut on the i in Adelaide) for its regality, though it is not the kind of rhythm I normally go for.
Of your combos, if I had to choose one, it would be Antoinette Sylvie, and I like Antoinette Clarice, but I would prefer it spelled Clarisse. Antoinette Amelie, and Aurelie are also very pretty.
Antoinette is generally far too overstated for me, but I do enjoy seeing it on other people. I think it really does require an over-the-top French middle name to balance it, like:
Antoinette Anaïs
Antoinette Athénaïse
Antoinette Blanchefleur
Antoinette Cordélie
Antoinette Dorothée
Antoinette Euphrasie
Antoinette Felicité
Antoinette Françoise
Antoinette Gratienne
Antoinette Maximilienne
Antoinette Pascale
Antoinette Sebastienne
