[Opinions] Re: Melba
in reply to a message by Bear
I've never even heard of Melba toast before. I had to look it up just to see what it was, and it doesn't seem to me like something a lot of people would know about, though apparently they do?
I think Melba is pretty. I know what you mean about names ending in -ba, the only other one I can think of is Rosalba.
This is a completely new name for me, so I'm not sure how good these combos are going to be-
Melba Ambrosine
Melba Celeste
Melba Celestine
Melba Clio
Melba Cybele
Melba Darcy
Melba Demeter
Melba Demetria
Melba Despoina
Melba Devi
Melba Dorothea / Dorothy
Melba Eniko
Melba Eponine
Melba Eveline
Melba Ffion
Melba Filipa / Phillipa
Melba Georgette
Melba Georgine
Melba Helene
Melba Hester
Melba Idony
Melba Ione
Melba Irene
Melba Italia
Melba Kleio
Melba Lior
Melba Ottilie / Ottilia
Melba Roisin
Melba Rosaline
Melba Sylvaine
Melba Tasnim
Melba Theodora / Theodosia / Theophania
Melba Vittoria / Victorine
Melba Xanthippe / Xanthe
Melba Zephyrine
Melba Athene
Melba Calypso
Melba Clotilde
Melba Eileen
Melba Ermintrude
Melba Glory
Melba Harper
Melba Honour
Melba Ismene
Melba Josephine / Josee
Melba Juliet
Melba Leonor / Lenore
Melba Primula
Melba Solveig
Melba Verity
Melba Vesper
Melba Vianne

No, I'm born and raised in the US. Though, moving to Europe (Slovakia please!) is my life-long dream. Hopefully within the next 10 years! I have no idea why I've never heard of Melba Toast.
I'm glad someone else besides me likes the "-ba" ending. Rosalba is mesmerizing to me. It shouldn't work, but it does.
Your list is terrific. My favorites:
Melba Celeste
Melba Dorothy
Melba Georgine (Exactly the combo I had in mind -- a gold star for you!)
Melba Hester
Melba Rosaline
Melba Theophania (I never would have come up with that on my own)
Melba Victorine
Melba Clotilde (heaven)
Melba Eileen
Melba Ermintrude :-)
Melba Josephine
Melba Lenore (they flow so naturally together)
Melba Solveig
Thanks!
