Anna Gwenllian. Anna is so very conventional, I wanted to pair her with something ethereal and mystical.
Carson Balthazar. I'm happy with this. Carson is this kind of ugly preppy surname, grey and stony, but Balthazar is so unapologetically grand that it makes the combo monumental.
Michael Aurelius. I like Michael. He's sturdy and friendly and all-American, but so pedestrian. So I thought I'd pair it with the extravagant and classical Aurelius to elevate it.
Sabrina Mabel. I'm not entirely satisfied with this. I hate Sabrina - it's the coldest name I can think of. So I decided to pair it with the warmest cinnamon apple pie of a name I could think of, Mabel, to make it a bit more approachable. I'm not sure if I succeeded.

Seraphina Katherine. I like this. Majestic, but whimsical.
Alistair Linus. I found Linus remarkably easy to pair, considering I don't really like it. It adds a playfulness to serious and stodgy but handsome names like Alistair.
Hieronymus Robert. the ridiculous, over-the-top, Boschian Hieronymus brings out the earthy medievalness in Robert. And we, as a society, desperately need more men named Hieronymus.
Beatrix Elizabeth. It's a very tough question - what to pair *the most boring name in humanity* with? Beatrix is nice. Lively and spirited and unusual but recognisable.

I like how in-depth you are with this.
