Océane Lou Chanel - Océane is a big GP of mine and I love Lou as a nn for Louisa, but Chanel just sounds so tacky to me.
Vanessa Sarina Flora - Too many A endings, imo, but all the names are lovely individually, especially Flora which is a favorite of mine.
Jean-David Bernard Albert Dov Berl (see Berel) - Ooh, it's a mouthful but I love it.
Stéphanie Wedia Marie (ste-fah-nee ve-dyah? we-dyah?) - I'm not a fan of Stephanie, but Wedia Marie is very pretty, regardless of pronunciation.
Sophie Edmonde - Love it!
Galith Sarah (sah-rah) - Galith is raelly interesting and I can tolerate Sarah as a mn. I like this one.
Doris Céline (se-leen) - Not really a fan of either name.
