[Opinions] Ester
I came across with this name a couple days ago in a newpaper article; it was a name of a Finnish, four-year-old girl. Now I have a crush on Ester and I feel extra fond of it, because it was also my great-grandmother's MN (her full name being Aili Ester).So, what are thoughts about Ester? Which MN(s) would you pair it with? And what do you think about sisters named Sylvia and Ester (Sylvia is my favorite girl's name)?

I like Ester and think it's a perfect sister name for Sylvia. Middle ideas: Lorraine, Joy, Cordelia, Corinne, Johanna, Pauline, Maeve, Penelope.

I don't like Ester. It sounds very old-ladyish, although I know it's slowly coming back in style (well, Esther, at least). I guess I'd pair it with something more modern, like:Ester Abigail
Ester Alexa
Ester Elizabeth
Ester Evangeline
Ester Fiona
Ester Grace
Ester Hannah
Ester Jacqueline
Ester Jade
Ester Kate
Ester Lorena
Ester Madelyn / Madeline
Ester Nicole
Ester Olivia
Ester Quinn
Ester Veronica
Ester VictoriaEster and Sylvia would make a great sibset, except I really like Sylvia and wouldn't put her in the same "old lady name" category. lol
