"Meet my daughter, Tertia Spirit."
You say: What an unusual name. Tertia is lovely.
You think: Tertia is lovely though I wonder how many people mispronounce it. Not keen on Spirit at all.
"This is my son, Horatio Kolbe." (Kolbe is pronunced about like KOH-bah)
You say: You don't see Horatio much anymore. Interesting combo.
You think: And why not, it's a good solid name, no good nn's unfortunately. I always prn Kolbe like the cheese.
"May I present my daughter, Susan Arcadia?"
You say: What a beautiful name!
You think: What a beautiful name! Though I think I like Arcadia better than Susan.
"These are our twins, Eva Alexandrine and Friedrich Joachim." (EE-vah, not AY-vah or EH-vah--and Friedrich would be called Fritz.)
You say: Alexandrine is a refreshing change from Alexia and its variants. Your son has such an unusual combination.
You think: Eva's plain/popular, Alexandrine IS refreshing, though not my style. I do like Joachim but paired with Friedrich? Odd. Fritz is an adorable nn.
