HelpRe: You have triplets in 1890...
in reply to a message by ✧･ﾟ: *Magpie*:･ﾟ✧
So many fun possibilities!
Amzi Starling
Clair Nightingale / Cleo Merlin / Augustine Bluebird
Isadora Dove
Amzi was my great-great grandfather's name, and I've always liked it, so why not; if I traded it out for a name that charted, maybe Emanuel or Ezekiel.
Clair as a masculine name was #291 in 1891 and Claire as a feminine name was #291 in 1890 (and Clay, Clyde, Claude, Clara were being used) - Cleo Merlin or Augustine Bluebird would also be ok if Clair (because of Clara being #9) seems too popular.
Normally I prefer Isidora to Isadora but since Isadora and Isadore were the more common spellings at the time, I probably would have went with the crowd.
And then the MNs, because people did like their bird names back then: I came across Mourning Dove (and also Blue Bird) as a combo in a record recently, so that's been on my mind; Starling is partially an alteration of Sterling; Nightingale is partially after the famous one (Florence), plus Gale seems relatively unisex.
