[Opinions] Adeline
This name has been seriously striking my fancy. It always has, but lately it has scooted into top-ten standing. What is your opinion? I am pronouncing it to rhyme with "nine."Adeline Susannah is my combo.

I think it's rather pleasant... and way better than Lily, Sophia, etc.

I think of thishttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qe2vGhb55t8And I love it, quite a lot. I'd probably not use it but I'd be happy to see it.

I like it, and the combo works nicely too.

"Sweet Adeline" can do no wrong in my book. Love her. Adeline Susannah is terrific as a combo.

Very cute! I actually know a newborn Adeline nn Addi.

It's very rurally sweet. Well maybe rural isn't the right word... there is a simple, artless purity about it. Susannah matches it perfectly in that respect. I like it, it ripples off the tongue like a murmuring brook.

I love Susannah with Adeline!I like Adeline and most variations of Adele in general: Adelaida and Adelaide (but b/c of the city I don't think I'd use it), and kind of started liking Adelaine, too! I would have much preferred Adeline to Addison for one of my little nieces, but she's going by Addy anyway!The only thing I hesitate over regarding Adeline is that some people might think it sounds kind of medical, like 'adrenaline.' I guess that could be true of many names if one thinks about it too much! Anyway, I think Adeline Susannah is beautiful.
