Re: Honor
in reply to a message by Adeline
I've loved the name Honor for years. Someone suggested "Honor Leonie" (LEE-uh-nee or LAY-uh-nee) for me and I made a commitment then and there. My stock Honor combo was born. Honor Leontine ("LAY-un-teen") works as well.
All of your combinations work for me. The only slight, name-nerdy quibble is not to use a mn that is too popular. You're bound to run into an Olivia or two. So the combo "Honor Olivia" starts to sound more like a command, that you should honor Olivia, if that makes sense. By using a mn that is less common it's easier to avoid that. (I have too much time on my hands.)
