Lily
Josie (prefer as a nn for Josephine)
Fiona Romy (prefer Romy as a nn for Rosemary)
Anais
Katharina Dorothea - too frilly in the same combo, though
Giulia - much prefer the Julia spelling
Anna-Marie
Elias-Noel Christian
Adrian
Leif Soren
Finn Simon
Joel
Luca Noel
Felix Maximillian
Thanks, Andra, for posting what names are popular where you live. Most are quite different than those in the U.S. and others are quite similar (for ex., Marie as a mn is extremely common here, too). All in all, not really a bad name in the bunch, though. Beats the Madisyns and Braedins we get here in the U.S. all the time. :b

I like
Fiona Romy: sweet, delicate combo!
Anais: I used to love this name, but I was told it sounded like anus so I dropped it from my own list :-(
Leif Soren: I know a Leif so I am biased, but I love the name, and the combo is nice
Finn Simon: Simno Finn is on my list as well
Joel: nice
Niclas: I'm not fond of Nicholas, but Niklaas it very nice. I prefer Niklas to Niklaas now that you've mentioned it.
Luca Noel: Luca to me is a feminine name (a form of Lucia in my country), but I like Noel very much.
Sing once again with me our strange duet
My power over you grows stronger yet.
