HelpThank you!
in reply to a message by Bear
Thanks for your reply! It makes me quite sad I can't use Barnaby and Winifred too. I am working really hard on him though. I think with the unfortunate associations of his Chinese name he is trying to avoid us using a name he thinks has teasing potential.
Of your suggestions I like:
Mariana Celeste- I love this, but our surname begings with a "t" so it wouldn't flow very nicely.
Mariana Charlotte- super, but ends in "t" too.
Mariana Eve
Mariana Sylvie
Mariana Violet- my husband thinks Violet sounds too much like violent.
Mariana Alice- my sister is called Alice, it might be nice to honour her.
Mariana Sophie- my sister (my sister Alice not my sister Laura,I just realised I have mentioned them both) has claimed Sophie :(
Mariana Pearl- you know I hadn't thought of Pearl. It is going on my list!
Odelia Constance (prefer Ottilie) I prefer Ottilie too by miles. My husband says it is silly if you aren't French and people will mispronounce it :(.
Odelia Marie
Odelia Violet
Odelia Celeste
Odelia Christabel
Odelia Catherine- my Mother's mn is Kateryna so I might be more inclined to use a "k".
Odelia Mary- I've never been a huge fan of Mary. My husband likes Marie, Maria and Mary because of the religious undertones (or overtones, depending on which way you see it).
Odelia Ruby- so sweet!
Celestine Adele- Maybe too much "el", but I like it
Celestine Leonie- I love it!
Celestine Marie
Celestine Violet (I never knew how versatile Violet is as a mn)
Celestine Matilda
Celestine Eve
Celestine Lenore- I really like Lenore, but I still think of the washing powder. I considered Leonora, but my sister is called Laura and I think they are too close.
I really like some of the boy names, particularly:
Bartholomew
Edmond
Noel- my father is called Noel Patrick
Laurence- but again too close to Laura for me
Linus
Phineas- I added this to my list yesterday!
