[Opinions] Re: Top 10 for August
in reply to a message by Myosotis
Ptolemy Lysander Albert and Nikolai Emrys Altair are so OTT but really rather cool. I like 'Kai' as a NN for Nikolai, but I think it would, if used in real life, be a bit forced.
Edmund Julian Francis is quite a natural combo, actually, if a little bit... upper-crusty or wanna-be upper-crusty. I don't get where the NN Teddy is coming from though? I'd prefer Eddie TBH.
Marigold Clara Hermione sounds like some fantasy child's story fairy, but not in a bad way. Well, in a bad way if it were used for a real child, but for a theoretical entity there's something fun about it.
Beatrix Anna Rosalind is nice. I like Lyra Beatrix too, but Marilyn has a completely different 'feel' (retro sex-bomb glam vs spirited fantasy nerdiness) to the other two names. Same with Georgiana Florence Winter... Georgiana Florence is nice and cohesive, Winter has a different vibe that doesn't gel with the other names, but it also doesn't provide an interesting contrast IMHO? I dunno.
I like Sybil Henrietta Ivy, though, but not Sybbie.
And Anna Calliope May, for some reason, makes me think of fruit salad with lots of melon, and the colours pink and pale orange and palest green-yellow. It's springy and fresh and youthful (despite none of the names being ones I usually like).
