Morningstar…
Replies
I'll need to warm to it first, it's kind of a mouthful as a name, but I don't dislike it. Venus and Danica are better choices. I do like Sibyl and Bonnie as a sibset, it's vintage and cosy.
Sibyl Morningstar is gorgeous! I don’t care for babyish Bonnie and dislike it as a sister for Sibyl.
My first thought about Morningstar is that perhaps the family has some Native American heritage. I like it.
My first thought is Lucifer.
My second thought it a weapon with a friendly sounding name. It reminds me of a Goedendag (literally translation from Dutch is "Good day"), which is also a weapon a lot more awful than the name suggests. In my head those two are filed right next to each other.
My third thought, I kinda like it as a GP. For me it's a boys name though.
Sibyl is not precisely a fav of mine and I like Bonnie possibly because of positive personal associations. Stewart is an awful female mn.

Isn't a morning star one of those intense-looking medieval weapons?
IT IS! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morning_star_(weapon)
Wow, that's badass. I assume she wasn't named after the weapon though.
As a name, it reminds me of Starblanket, a Indigenous surname I always thought was incredibly beautiful.
Sibyl and Bonnie are an interesting pair. They don't exactly match for me - Bonnie is very 1950's, while Sibyl feels Edwardian. But they are both nice names. They both feel very cozy.

It could be a family surname, but it could be a hipie-type word name or an Indian or faux-Indian nature name.
I don't think Sibyl and Bonnie go together at all. I'd expect a Bonnie to have a sister named Debbie or Linda or Susan or Carolyn (I know a youngish Bonnie who does have a sister named Carolyn.) I'd expect a Sibyl to have a sister named something like Daphne or Ramona or Lucia.

It's a brand of meatless meat. I haven't had any in 20 years, yet that's 80% what I think about. Another 15% is Lucifer and Venus. Then Morgenstern and (as a name) Mourning Dove.
So, I don't love it. Although Sibyl Morningstar would have been a cool name to have 100 years ago...or now. Way cooler than Bonnie Stewart...
Bonnie mostly seems like a baby-boomer name to me, and when its next to Stewart, I think of the Bonnie Prince.

I think Morningstar is absolutely gorgeous as a middle name (or a surname)! Especially because Venus is one of my favorite celestial bodies✨️
It's lovely on both genders, but I slightly prefer it for a boy.
