Re: Felix, Victor, or Albert?

Interesting!
I'd choose Victor without hesitation, and team it up with Beatrice.
My next choice is Albert, and his sister Sibyl.
That would appear to leave Felix and Irene! Not a convincing combo, I don't think, Felix being frivolous and Irene very dignified, though I do pronounce Irene with three syllables so perhaps making it eyeREEN would help, though it really bugs me even to think about it - I dislike pretty much every EEN name going: Maureen and Doreen and Eileen etc etc. Christine isn't too bad and I really like Justine, but Ireen is the pits.
