I'm not a fan of Timothea, but I've never been a fan of Timothy, either. I want to like it, but the Tim- sound and I never clicked. I would do a double take if I heard it on a child IRL, though.None of the combos listed really strike my fancy. Here are my own contributions:Timothea Cybele
Timothea Altalune
Timothea Osyth
Timothea Nausicaa
Timothea Hebe
Timothea Alcyone
Timothea Rudabet
Timothea Alix
Timothea Velebeth
Timothea Roslyn
Timothea Melisande
Timothea Dianthe
Timothea Hero
Timothea Rosalthe
Timothea Musidora
Timothea Odette
Timothea Rikissa
Timothea Hesper
Timothea Ines
Timothea Gwenore

Timothea Rikissa is magnificent! I also love Timothea Osyth, Timothea Hero, and Timothea Hesper.I've loved Rudabet ever since discovering it was part of Leelee Sobieski's name, but I assumed it was uniquely tied to her because I couldn't find any information about it.

Rudabet comes from the Persian name Rudabeh, which is the name of a mythological character in an epic Persian poem called "Shahnameh". It means "shining child."

Hebe. Yes. I love Hebe and I always forget about it. It works with so many things.I like almost all of the Greek-influenced ones. I guess that's appealing to me right now. I appreciate the Altalune, I think it's so fun! Velebeth is bold, and interesting. Rudabet almost appeals - there's a dog on my social media called Rutabaga and that set of sounds is on my mind a bitAlcyone is a bold slice of a name, isn't it? I find it overpowers Timothea like a scythe overpowers wheat.Rosalthe is very pretty and ancient-feeling. Gwenore pretty as well. Musidora I don't quite...Very interesting choices! I think they go very well.
