[Opinions] Re: Camille
Camille is not a boring or filler middle name. It is far more interesting than the likes of Rose, Lynn, Marie, etc. I agree that the French pronunciation is much, much better than the English in this case. Camille would be on my list otherwise.As an alternative, have you considered Camellia or Camelia? I quite like those names.From your list, I like Eva Camille the best.Other suggestions: Beatrice Camille
Delphine Camille
Elena Camille
Eloise Camille
Enora Camille
Evelyn Camille
Flora Camille
Iris Camille
Mattea Camille
Romola Camille
Serena Camille
Venetia Camille
Zosime Camille
Samantha

Thank you :) The pronunciation issue really is one of my pet peeves, and I always feel like I'm terrible when I get funny about it, but fortunately that's rare as how often does your middle name come up? And I've learnt to be less prickly about it over the years. The most common issue is the "how do you spell that?" and I'm used to that with the names of family members and the h/no-h n/double n issue with my own first name.
I really like Flora Camille and and Iris Camille. Iris Camille is makes me think of a big bunch of flowers, it's very pretty. Mattea Camille is neat as all hell, I love it. Romola isn't my style but I find myself liking Romola Camille a lot. I really like Beatrice Camille too... I love Delphine, but my brain struggles with Delphine Camille. I don't know why because it's a combo which has cropped up a few times when I've been thinking up combos, and there's absolutely nothing objectionable about it. I think maybe Delphine gives me the same vibes as Camille for some reason on some level?
Zosime is so cool, I keep forgetting that name exists. I need to think about Zosime more often.
