HelpSibset from a biography
I'm reading a biography of Polish writer Witold Gombrowicz. Here are the names of his grandnieces and grandnephews, born to a Polish father and French mother. All middle names are honouring.
Cyrille Józef Michał
Isabella Franciszka Irena
Renaud Piotr Andrzej Jan
Vinciane Rita Antonina
WDYT?

I really like the name Irena. It’s such a beautiful, stately name.

At first I thought the idea of giving Cyrille for a boy is sort of girlish, but then I found out that in France it can be used for both boy and girls. I'm neutral on it.
Isabella was my favorite name when I was 5, after the child chef in Junior MasterChef Australia. Somehow it reminds me of a jar of strawberry jam. Isabella is sweet.
Renaud is unique, I think it looks and sounds similar to the name Ronald, Reynaldo, and the surname Reynolds. I like the -au- sequence.
I like Vinciane too. It reminds me of Leonardo da Vinci. I like Rita too even if there's the Rita Skeeter in the Harry Potter movies.
I know they're Polish names but I prefer Joseph to Józef, Michael to Michał, Francesca to Franciszka, Irene to Irena, Peter to Piotr, Andrew to Andrzej, John to Jan, and Antonia to Antonina.
