Re: Arianwen & Octavia
in reply to a message by Amelia
Arianwen looks gorgeous but is a mess to say. At least for me. It feels overcomplicated and silly. Maybe I'm saying it wrong?
I love Octavia, though. No idea as for middle names. I have a lot of trouble finding combos I like, but everyone else seems to do it so easily!

I totally agree about Arianwen. I think the idea of it is better than the reality. I'm pronouncing it with four syllables. Is that correct? The first part is pretty close to Aryan, which makes me think of Nazis, which isn't cool at all.
I don't like Faye as a mn with it. But I don't like the name Faye with any name, so don't worry about me. You'd definitely need something super simple and short with a first name like that!
Octavia is okay, nms, but okay. I think Octavia Evelyn sounds really pretty. The v's in each name give it a nice continuity.

Haha I never thought of the Aryan thing. If you're saying it with 4 syllables that's correct. And I completely get what your saying, it's kind of a big name, which might be too much of a mouthful. But I love it right now haha.
