Yay. Some awesome names here!I like:
Petra Zephyrine - adore this one. So pretty!
Petra Wilhelmina - ditto. I'm worried it might be too much as a combo, but it's two awesome names... who cares? Very nice.
Petra Mathilde
Petra ChrysantheMelisande Rowena
Melisande Olympia - interesting combo!Roland Hugo
Roland Emmanuel
Roland August - I love Roland August a lot!Finn Abraham is such an interesting combo and I like both names! Nice!
Finn Alasdair is nice - but what about Finn Alastair? I'm not so sure about the 'd' and prefer the 't' spelling.

Ooooh, I love Mélissaire Beatriz!I like both Roland Alexander and Finn Alexander, but Alexander has always struck me as a 'safe choice', the kind of name that I like enough in practice but in theory always feels a bit too practical. They're nice combos, though!Thanks for the suggestions, especially the Mélissaire one! :)

Thanks for your response!
I like:
Petra Beatrice - I think the P/B combo could be too much, but I like both names
Petra Caroline - I love Caroline, and it's honouring! Yay!
Petra Josephine
Petra Magdalene - or Petra Madeleine?
Petra Theodora - Theodora is very pretty, but too much 't' sound? Maybe?Mélisande Hermione - super pretty!
Mélissaire Pelagia - it might not totally be my style, I'm not sure yet - but it's def. interesting.Roland Augustine - very dignified!
Roland Emmanuel - I kind of rather like this one.
Roland Vladislav - I couldn't ever use this, but it's fun and full of character and made me giggle/smile a bit. It would be a wonderful name for a character,Idris Vincente - would the safer Idris Vincent be okay?Finn Mordecai is kind of a mix of fun and moodily traditional. I like it!Thanks for your help! :)

Wow, there are so many combos here! Thank you so much!I like:
Petra Calanthe - I find Calanthe fascinating but never found a combo that worked with it. I like it with Petra!
Petra Camille - I love Camille, but it is my go to filler middle name, so I really shouldn't stick it in this list! I do like Petra Camille a lot, so...yeah...
Petra Laurel
Petra Laurence - I'm starting to see Laurence on a girl as pretty interesting and quite nice(Ha! Another Petra-fan! I'm glad that there's someone else out there who loves this underappreciated jewel of a name. The other names I listed weren't my favourites, but Petra definitely is... if only I didn't struggle finding combos for it)Micaiah isn't my style and I don't think I could ever pull it off in real life... but damn that's an intriguing looking name!Anyway, I like:
Mélissaire Miranda (in a lilty kinda way)
Mélissaire Genevieve and Mélisande Genevieve
Mélisande Ursula and Mélisande Ursa - I adore Ursula, so this is awesome
Mélissaire Ofelia and Mélisande Ofelia - could Ophelia work just as well?
Mélissaire Olwen and Mélisande Olwen

Thank you!I love some of the Petra combos:
Petra Vivienne
Petra Isabelle ~ I'd prefer Petra Isabel or Petra Isobel, but that's just my mood at the moment. Petra Isabelle is nice too.
Petra Marguerite
Petra Sibylline
Petra Marceline All great!I especially love Petra Sibylline and Petra Marceline, since I hardly ever pair those names with anything, even as middle names and they make some good combos.I also love:
Mélisande Beatrix
Mélisande Inés
Mélisande LenoreEspecially Mélisande Inés! I have a rather intense love of Ines, but I feel like it's a little difficult to pull off. I'm not much of a Naomi fan, but it's a fine name - and I actually like Mélisande Noemi!For the boys...
I like Roland Alastair, Roland Samuel and Roland Tobias. Roland Samuel has flicked through my mind before, but is it too heavy on the -l and is Samuel too filler-ish? I like it a good deal, though.
Roland Frederick is pretty cool too. I can't use Frederick, if I were to use this in real life, since it's already been claimed by a cousin, but it's got a nice, sensible feel to it.
