[Opinions] Timothea
What do you think of the name Timothea? I'm rather smitten and think it would be a great way to honor my father whose middle name is Timothy. I find more uncommon feminizations of male names to be endearing so she's right up my alley. This may have something to do with the significance the name has to me though.As an outsider looking in what's your opinion?The only combo that comes to mind is Faye Timothea and I'm really loving it. I see Faye as a means to honor my mother who's middle name is Kay without actually using Kay.What do you think of Faye Timothea as a combo? Do you have any suggestions for combos containing Timothea?Thanks!

Timothea is sweet and I think your combination Faye Timothea is lovely, especially given the significance of the names for you. I won't even try to suggest anything else. :)

Timothea is beautiful! I really like it and it's a great way to honour a Timothy. I also don't mind the rhyming to honour. I have thought of using Mae as a nod to my parents who chose Rae as my middle name. Faye Timothea is wonderful. Do you specifically want Timothea in the middle name spot? I like Timothea Faye too.

Phew. It's not just me! I really worried it was. Timothea would not be restricted to the middle position. I just like how it sounds in the middle in this instance.Timothea Faye is lovely as well.Thank you!

Ya' know, I thought about TImothea Robin but I was thinking it sounded way too masculine. I already feel like Timothea is toeing the line. :)Timothea Kate is pretty. I really like it. Timothea Lily is on my list of combos I was compiling.Thank you!

Generally I'm not a fan of feminizations, but I actually like Timothea. A great nickname would be Thea, but since you're planning on using it as a middle name, I suppose that isn't relevant.Faye is not one of my favourites, so I'm don't really like the combo. It's a nice way to honor both your father and your mother though. But personally I'd go with some other form of Katherine to honor your mother.

It's not really a plan to slot Timothea in the middle. I do adore the nickname Thea and it's one of the reasons I like Theodora so well. Faye Timothea was simply the first combo that I came up with that I really liked using Timothea.I'm hesitant on using Faye as a means of honoring but it seems like an alright idea to use a rhyming name. Another form of Katherine would work quite well. Regardless I like the combo honoring or no. :)Thank you!
