I can't stop thinking about Candelaria and I have no idea why. What are your impressions of it? What would it make you imagine if you met one? I think a good pairing would be Candelaria Nicholette, with the NN Lara, and a possible sibset could be Candelaria and Sylvestra. Brother names?

Please rate my favorite names list if you have a spare moment, thank you :) https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/223226/138473

I love it, although I dislike Lara, I'd definitely go for Candy. Candelaria and Sylvestra is a very sparkly, festive set (to me, at least - where I live, New Year's Eve is referred to as Sylvester because the catholic Saint Sylvester's Day falls on that day). My favourite set with this name must be Candelaria and Illuminata, though.

Illuminata is definitely a fit for this set for sure!

Candelaria is so delightful! It's opulent but also tinkly (like a Christmas ornament) and thus approachable.

Candelaria and Sylvestra is divine.

It's so ornate, which I do like. I would absolutely always mangle it into "Calendaria", though. Candelaria and Sylvestra is deliciously gothic. Brothers should get something similar....dark and slightly exotic, sinister in a sexy way: Alvaro, Balthazar, Fausto, Gregoire, Ramiro?

I like it, fits with Scholastica.

I agree Scholastica would go well!

Candelaria is a really cool name - and from what I understand, very old-fashioned among Spanish speakers. Candelaria & Sylvestra would be absolutely epic as sisters!
