[Opinions] Avaline and Adelina
My friend who likes the names Zenobia, Aurora, Desdemona, Delaina, Arabella for girls and Benjamin and Towner for boys has added Avaline and Adelina to the list for girls. I can't quite put my finger on her taste in names, but she seems to go for A names. I can't say Avaline and Adelina are my style, though.

I like:
My friend who likes the names Zenobia, Aurora, Benjamin, Adelina. Avaline sounds trashy to me because it is close to the French word for swallowing. I love Aveline (ahv-leen / ah-vuh-leen) though.

I like Adelina and Benjamin. Except for Benjamin, she pretty much likes unusual and somewhat quirky names imo. :b

I don't like the spelling Avaline much. I think I could like Aveline, but I never know whether to say AV-eh-leen or AV-eh-lyne, which irks me a bit.Adelina is pretty, but a bit too extended. I love just Adeline._____________________________________________________________________"There are few more distressing sights than that

Yeah,I had to train my self away from A names myself.
I'm not so hot for Arabella,but I like her other names
Aveline is better than Adelina imo but they're nms either
