Re: new names for October
Pandora Amy Valencia Fae - Four names. That's a big one. I actually think the flow would be better if you took out Amy: "Pandora Valencia Fae." Additionally (and I don't know if "synesthetic vibes" are important to you), P names tend to feel much warmer in color than most V or F names (e.g. Sophia is a red name, while Sofia is a cool bluish-purple... to me, anyway). So there are a lot of different colors in that combo. Pandora is a tricky name, though, in terms of pairing it with something. I remember seeing "Pandora Tuesday" on the boards once and finding it positively inspired. I think Pandora would go best with a middle name that had a D in it somewhere. (Pandora Deirdre? Maybe... though Deirdre is awfully pink...)Demelza Georgiana Clio - I don't actually like any of these names individually, so I wouldn't have any valuable advice about grouping them together.Beatrix Sylvia Rosalind - "Sylvia Rosalind" is lovely, but Beatrix looks tacked on at the beginning. The -x in Beatrix and S in Sylvia also run into each other. Even though I'm not a fan of the name, what about Georgiana Sylvia Rosalind?Marigold Clara Hermione - Clara sounds awkward in the middle, though "Marigold Hermione" looks very nice and flows well. If you still want a middle name between them, I recommend that it be short and soft... like Anne.Lyra Beatrix Valentine - This is what I'm talking about! Beatrix definitely looks like she belongs here. I usually don't pair B and V names, but this combo is an exception.
Kitty, on the other hand, is a nickname. It's a cute nickname, but I don't think it should never find it's way onto someone's birth certificate.Georgiana Florence Eve - I like this combo better than the other one you proposed, mainly because I think "Florence Eve" flows better than "Florence Winter." Good use of Florence, though - that name doesn't get enough love.Fae Georgiana Lilac - I've developed a grudging respect for Georgiana since I've seen it so many times on your list. This combo is very pretty. I like your spelling of Fae as a first name, and Lilac (like Florence) doesn't get enough love.Clara Hermione Winter - "Hermione Winter" goes together, for a moment, before I remember that Hermione was a principal character in Shakespeare's "A Winter's Tale" and it starts to look just a tad... fawning. (I once made the same mistake, too: I tried to make Miranda Tempest work. It didn't.)
But what to do with Clara? It's such a wonderful classic name... Ooooh, I know! "Clara Sylvia Rosalind"!Hermione Beatrice Winter - See above for "Hermione Winter." Although "Beatrice Winter" has a certain ring to it...Alexandria Magdalene Clio - Alexandria is such a big, powerhouse name, that Magdalene seems quite harsh next to it. I like Alexandria Lily... Clio is nms at all.*
*
*Caspian Sherlock Walter - Two distinct literary characters... plus Walter, from which I just can't shake the "old man" association. It's just a bit much.Phoenix Arthur Blaise - "Phoenix Arthur" is pretty great, even though I consider Phoenix more feminine than masculine (it reminds me of Stevie Nicks, for some reason). And "Phoenix Blaise" itself isn't bad written out. But heard as "Phoenix ___ Blaze" ... it's a bit on-the-nose. :-)Ptolemy Alexander Hamish - "Ptolemy Alexander" looks and sounds great, but throwing "Hamish" in there presents the same "problem" as Pandora Valencia Fae: Hamish is a much "cooler-toned" name.Horatio Albert Louis - I wouldn't use any of these names personally, but this combo flows much better than having it end with "Darcy."Artemus Bartholomew Malik - Malik at the end is "mixing genres," but the other two names are nms at all, so I can't really comment on the pairing.Edmund Julian Francis - No complaints, this is a handsome name.Hamish Ephraim Atticus - Definitely better than the other combo, but in any event I can't make myself like Hamish (it's like saying something is "like ham"). However, "Ephraim Atticus" is great!Lorenzo Felix Amadeus - Probably because we know his professional name "Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart," this totally sounds like a Classical composer! One of Swiss-German-Italian descent.Nikolai Julian Emrys - Emrys looks and feels tacked on at the end. Nikolai Julian is just fine, though. I think the Y in Emrys would pair it well with Ptolemy. Hmmm... "Ptolemy Alexander Emrys"?Timothy Lysander Sage - I normally think of Sage as a feminine name, but even as a masculine name is doesn't fit at the end here. Timothy Lysander, however, is great. What about "Timothy Lysander Blaise"?
