Frederica
I was never fond of Frederica until today - when I read about Fredericka "Marm" Mandelbaum, a female criminal of New York in the post-Civil War era. How fascinating! Now the name is positvely enchanting.
So let's make some diabolical Frederica combos! Something really femme fatale.
Frederica Cleo / Cleo Frederica

Frederica Carmen
Frederica Pandora

Theda Frederica
Musidora Frederica
Ivy Frederica
Frederica Eve / Eve Frederica
Lilith Frederica / Frederica Lilith
Frederica Lorelei
Frederica Anna May
Delilah Frederica / Frederica Delilah
Frederica Marlene
Frederica Mata Hari

No kidding, a co-worker of mine is expecting a niece (her brother and his wife are due with their first child) and they're fond of the combo Frederica Delilah! My co-worker built it up to be a horrid name in the telling but when I heard it my heart kind of swelled in my chest.
Frederica is one of my favourite names of all time!
Frederica Nikita
Frederica Darkest Anne (for you!)
Frederica Rosemary
Frederica Libitina
Jezebel Frederica
Frederica Jet
Frederica Lilith
I'm typing this on my phone from memory, haha, I'll add more once I get to a computer. :)

Oh, no. Is it Frederica or Delilah that your co-worker doesn't like? Or the two of them together?
Do you know if Frederica is honoring a Frederick, or do they just love the name as much as we do? How are they / your co-worker pronouncing Frederica?
Sorry to be so nosey. I just don't get a chance to talk about Frederica in a real-world sense that often.

No problem, I love talking names! My co-worker hates both names as they're too 'weird' and 'old fashioned'. She likes trendy names. She's the type that would prefer a Jayden or Maddy type niecephew.
She says it as Fred-er-ee-kah, which is how I do, too. The male name the couple was considering was Kenneth, with two family middle names. Apparently neither girl name is after anyone.
I'm in Australia, if that means anything, and I've never met a little Frederica either!

Squeeeeeeeee!
I adore Frederica. Fred is such a counter-intuitive syllable for a girl's name. But Frederica is as girly-girl as they get. She dances, she prances, she floats through the room. You have to admire her self-confidence. (Disclosure: Frederica, nn Freda, is a family name for me.)
I prefer the pronunciation of Fredrika with three syllables a tad bit more than four syllable Frederica. But I love the look of Frederica more. Does anyone think that I could get away with a three syllable pronunciation of Frederica? It's not a big deal. It's just on my if-I-were-in-charge-of-the-universe list.
Femme-fatale-a-go-go:
Frederica Cleo / Cleo Frederica -- zowie
Frederica Salome -- pushing it a tad
Frederica Carmen -- first rate, class personified
Frederica Pandora -- hmm, I can't put my finger on why I'm not getting into this one
Frederica Valeska -- va-va-va-voom
Theda Frederica -- vamp-a-licious
Misidora Frederica -- more information please; where does Musidora come from?
Ivy Frederica -- sold!
Eve Frederica -- nice
Lilith Frederica -- nice
Frederica Lorelei -- eh

haha!
I say Frederica with only three syllables. According to the site, that is the way english people say it, so I feel justified! I do feel like I ought to say Fredrika like "Fredrick-ah", so Frederica "fred-REE-ka" works well for me.
I think Frederica Pandora doesn't work because it sounds like a pasta dish.
Musidora was the stage name of Jeanne Roques, a French silent film actress. She's very vampy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musidora
I was totally cheating with Mata Hari, you caught me.

Oh, wow. Great find. Thanks. Musidora and Polaire should hang out together in vamp heaven. :-) Frederica Musidora it shall be. What do you say to Frederica Polaire?
"frederick-uh?" Ewwwww. I say Fredrika as "fred-REE-kuh" and Frederica as "fred-er-EE-kuh." I like both, I just prefer the three syllable way. It has more power in it. In no universe would I consider a "frederick-uh" pronunciation for any of them. I'm glad to hear others say Frederica with three syllables too. It gives me cover.
Frederica Pandora = pasta dish made me choke on my lunch I was laughing so hard.
