Inez
Thoughts on Inez? How do you pronounce it? Do you prefer Ines? Sibling names / combos?

I think it's really beautiful! I'm on the fence about Agnes and Inez lately, but I think both of them have fallen into my favorite catalog. I like Inez more than Ines.
In English I pronounce it as IE-nəz (like eyeness), but in my native tongue I pronounce it as ee-NEHZ. I prefer the English pronunciation.
Combos and sibsets:
🔲 Inez Alexandra, Beatrix Rosamond, Darius Michael
🔲 Inez Marie, Ada Jane, Robert Joseph
🔲 Inez Carmen, Isabel Davina, Ivan Peter

I nez, don't like it
I much prefer it to Agnes, and I prefer the spelling Inez. I would use Inez Marina, Hugo Alessandro, and Lena Evangeline.
