Oh, I love all of your combos (apart from
Hilary, maybe. And
Nigella Hilary could grow on me, too). They all have a very different feel to them, it's hard to decide which one to choose.
I only found out a few days ago that nigellas are actually a genus of several species of plants. Love-in-a-mist, for example, is a nigella.
Another thing I really like about this name. The cherry on top. For me, this adds some extra sweetness to this otherwise very vibrant name. That's at least the feel I get from
Nigella. ;-)
By the way, I just wikipedia-ed Ms
Lawson - turns out she has/had two sisters:
Thomasina and
Horatia (and a brother named
Dominic).
I'm smitten, I'm in awe.
Nigella,
Thomasina and
Horatia. Wow.
