I prefer Susannah but I think the combo is almost heartbreakingly pretty. There is something sort of melancholy about it, though.

Very pretty in a sunny, southern way.

I like Susanna, but not Blythe. I'd replace Blythe with Olive, Blair or Fern.

I love Susanna, but not Blythe. I know you like the Green Gables connection, but that was his surname. It never feels like a first name to me, just a word. Those books have tons of beautiful first names in them that you could choose from. Why not one of those?

I guess I just think it's a nice word, all blithe and bonny, but perhaps Susanna does need something more namey in the middle.I'll keep thinking!

Really pretty. I saw Blythe on a gravestone some months ago and it really stayed with me. It's a beautiful name.I'd prefer Susannah but the combo is lovely.

It's a very nice combination. I love it.

Lovely combo. I've never heard blythe/blithe used in a sentence in modern times, so I don't find it wordy. And there's Blythe Danner.

It's pretty......a bit too pretty, maybe.

Yes, my previous combination was Frida Susanna, so I see what you mean! But I am feeling Susanna in the FN spot today.

Absolutely adore Susanna! Blythe is nice. I’m intrigued by these comments about the combo being maybe too pretty, heartbreakingly beautiful, almost melancholy. I can definitely see all that.

Beautiful name combo.

It's lovely! I'm having trouble thinking of another Green Gables-vibe mn that's as good. Ruby, Stella, Jane, Katherine, Leslie, Rachel...

Sounds like the name of a gung-ho journalist from 1932. I like it.

Not something I'd ever use myself, either for a kid or in any other context, but it's certainly nice and as a huge L. M. Montgomery fan I appreciate the strongly Green Gables feel.
