Help[Opinions] Two questions about my future children's names
1. Dominic is one of the few names Eric and I both really like so it will likely be the name of a future son. How do the following names work as a sibling for Dominic? Any one of them particularly bad or good?
Alessandra
Annika
Cecilia
Celeste
Cora
Layla
Lilian/Lily
Livia
Lucy
Miriam
Monica
Paloma
Roma
Rosamund
Simone
Theda
Thora
Violet
2. Eric only very reluctantly talks about names. I’ve only gotten responses about boys’ names. Judging by his taste what are some girls’ names you think he might like? Regarding the girls’ names in Question 1 are there any you think he’d like or dislike?
Names He Likes
Alexander
Dominic
Eric
Holden (he flip-flops on this one)
James
Jonas
Julian
Julius
Sebastian (flip-flops on this one too)
Silas
Names He Dislikes (not including names he has bad associations with)
Eero - although he doesn't mind Arrow
Emeric
Felix
Iago
Leandro
Levi
Alessandra
Annika
Cecilia
Celeste
Cora
Layla
Lilian/Lily
Livia
Lucy
Miriam
Monica
Paloma
Roma
Rosamund
Simone
Theda
Thora
Violet

There's a quiz at namenerds
to find out your naming style.
If you just go www.namenerds.com/uucn and check out the interactive features, you'll find it. Try and get Eric to take it.

My opinons
Alessandra - This matches Dominic really well, has the same kind of sound
Annika - Matches less so, and most people would mispronunce it
Cecilia - Matches really, really well
Celeste - Matches
Cora - I love it, but it doesn't match as well
Layla - This matches, but this is looking to be like the next Madison/Jessica, its popping up everywhere
Lilian/Lily - Doesn't match as well, has the feel of Cora
Livia - Way too trendy
Lucy - ONce again, this would match Cora and Lilian, not so much Dominic
Miriam - Borderline match
Monica - Borderline match
Paloma - Great match
Roma - Great match, but think about Roma Tomatoes.
Rosamund - I love this name, but it only partially matches Dominic
Simone - Nms, but it does match
Theda - Matches (great name)
Thora - So so.
Violet - This is another name that matches Cora
From his names, he likes semi historical names. Try:
Theda
Simone
Rosamund
Alessandra
Celecila
Cora
Go from there.

I think these work as a sib, and I've starred the ones I think he might like, based on Dominic and the like/dislike list, and nothing else but my feeling about it (though I'm usually wrong):
Alessandra
Annika*
Cecilia
Celeste
Livia*
Lucy*
Miriam*
Paloma*
Roma
Theda
Thora*
Seems likely to me also, that he'd like Layla and/or Lilian/Lily, but I don't personally think they make good sibs for Dominic. Maybe Layla is okay, but not great.
