NaomiAnd if they were royal? I suppose it depends. It might be the same. But more likely, I'd go a bit wilder. I might be tempted to go for some ridiculously extravagant, fake-intellectual ancient sounding names. I'd probably make my, probably very classically educated, SO do most of the work in that case but I mean something like this, possibly with even more middle names, I just ran out of ideas:Illuminata Bibiana Eudora
Candelaria Fortunata Terpsichore
Dulcibella Concordia Salvatrix
Euphrosyne Harmonia Narcissa
Andromache Kriemhild Oenone
Crescentia Euterpe Psamathe
But, if I'm honest, I'd be possibly even more tempted to just do nouns! To me they somehow clash with the idea of royalty but at the same time fit in with a wider rich people vibes, so I feel like my kids wouldn't even stand out that much and I love noun names:Tuesday

BlissDepending on how bored out of our minds we'd get, being rich, we might mix and match all the sets for that chaotic vibe I get from reading some rich people wikipedia entries.https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/109883

Love the idea of wilding out and choosing nouns! The chaotic vibe from rich people wikipedia is def a thing, although in general some names look just wild since they are not common where I live (more cultural/etnicity specific).
To add to the chaos, I would also add names that are considered extremely masculine into the mix and spelling variations- just to confuse people.Here's my "wilder" list:
Joy
Basel or Boris
Merle or Musa
Pearl
Zisel (bc Giselle is to simple lol)
Natan

Oh! You're absolutely right about the masculine names! I'm loving the idea of an aristocratic girl named Natan. And I love Merle and Zisel, too!
