[Opinions] Esmeralda
I have had the name Susanna Emerald for a while, but I've been thinking about the name Esmeralda. What do you think? Would you use it? What would you pair it with? Would you use Esmeralda as a FN or MN?

I find Esmeralda to be intensely sparkly or lush...too much so for me (I'm more into Rosalind, Esme, Zerelda, Merida), but it's appealing.Cordelia Esmeralda
Ophelia Esmeralda
Betsabé Esmeralda
Drusilla Esmeralda
Philippa Esmeralda
Viviana Esmeralda
Minerva Esmeralda*
Sabina Esmeralda
Rowena Esmeralda
Esmeralda Corisande

Esmeralda PenelopeI feel like it balances dark/elegant/dramatic names (like Ophelia, Drusilla) pretty well.Susana Esmeralda would be pretty.

I like Esmeralda in theory, but it seems a bit much for me to use personally.

I like Emerald, but not Esmeralda. The sound of Esmeralda really turns me off. It'd be fine as a middle name.
Needs a nice smooth Latiny first name to make it flow.

I love it! A bit of a mouthful so maybe stick to the MN spot? Gorgeous as a FN, though!

I like Esmeralda, even though it’s honestly not my style. I prefer Emerald for that reason, even though I would never use it.

I would avoid Emerald, but then, I'd avoid all jewel names except Coralie. And, like Granny Weatherwax, I prefer Esme.

Either. I like it okay. It's not my style, but my BFF has a niece named Esmerelda Rosalie who is a sweet little thing =D
