[Opinions] Re: Hermione
in reply to a message by Bex
It is good that you are trying out names now to see if they will bear the test of time.Winifred Hermione sounds really cute. I would love to meet a Winifred Minerva. If you do end up using Winifred, would you use Freda or something else as the nickname? Here are some other names that might sound nice for a sister of Theodora
Wilhelmina
Cecily
Generva / Geneva
Eleanor
Helena
Irene
Beatrice
Alexandra
Tatiana
Cordelia
Octavia
Georgiana
Esther
Evelyn
Victoria
Vivian

For Winifred most likely we'd use Winnie or maybe Fred/die (less likely)I like:
Wilhelmina - I absolutely love this but don't know if it's 'too' much. I also am not sure if hubby would be able to spell it!
Cecily - cute but i'd more likely use it as a MN
Beatrice - I'm not sure how I feel about this one. I think I like it some days but then not sure the next day.
Octavia - same as Beatrice.Ugh, this is so hard :(

I love Raven Briar's suggestions of Cecily and Beatrice: my parents were Beatrice and Cecil and, going back to Thomasina, both of my grandfathers were Thomas! If only I were you, the problem would be solved. Cecily Beatrice Thomasina. Wow!
