Re: Orville

Villie or Ori.
Orville as feminine sounds like the 10th daughter (in a family of all girls) born in the 1930s on a farm in midwest America. I guess it'd bring out the pluckiness of the name and makes it slightly more romantic: I wonder, whatever happened to that girl!? She sounds like a character.
Orville for a guy is kind of like Norman, Cletus, Ogden, Whittaker, Rufus. He sounds a bit more entitled or a bit more ho hum. But maybe clever or snappy or good at farmwork.
I came across Opal Viola Victoria on a character recently and thought it was charming; Opal (before it suddenly started seeming like it could be young) used to have a vibe similar to Orville to me, so I'm going with alliterative double middle names...

I'm definitely digging the alliterative middle names. Orville is absolutely ridiculous so having a wimsical combo is pretty essential. No sense pretending it's an ordinary name.
I LOVE the visual of a tenth daughter called Orville in a dustbowl-era story. Wow, yes.
These combos of yours really stood out to me:
Orville Marion Magnolia
Orville Frances Fiona
Orville Ruby Raffaela - I'm very into Orville Ruby
Orville Anastasia Alice
Orville Cleopatra Carmen
Orville Guadalupe Gladys
Orville Betty Barbara
Orville Denise Delilah
Orville Dolores Delta
Orville Vera Valentine
Orville Veronica Vashti - Ooh, Vashti
Orville Evelyn Esmeralda
Orville Agatha Albertine
Orville Lavender Lindita
