Please help create combos...
Hello! So... we are unexpectedly actually expecting! Yay.We planned to start TTC this month, but I got sick and I am already a few months along! Go figure! So it will be time to put my name list to creative and potential use.So, here is the task, should you choose to accept it:
I have listed some first names, middle names and second middle names below. The two middle name groups are pretty set, but you can offer an alternative for a first if you have one that you think we would like. Please create a combo for each gender (you can do a couple if you just cannot decide), that we could use in real life. Sibling name is Clarisse Bituin Gioia Payot
FIRST NAMES -
girls... Nadine, Matilde, Tiffany, Camille, Trina, Marie, Marie-Noelle, Maylie or Maylis, Veronica, Margo, Margaux, Hester, Stefanie
boys... Gerard, Renard, Romain, Dashiell, Blaise, Victor, Edgar
FIRST MIDDLE NAMES -
girls... Perlas, Reyna, Amihan, Mayumi, Marikit, Dalisay
boys... Makisig, Dakila, Kidlat, Malakas, Magiting, Ulan
SECOND MIDDLE NAMES -
girls... Gilda*, Giacinta, Giustina, Giulia, Grazia, Giada
boys... Giotto, Gaspare, Giacinto, Glauco, Giosue, Giacomo*Gilda is pretty much our top choice, but all are accepted options.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!______________________________________________

Congratulations! My favorite of your first names is Matilde, but it rhymes with Gilda so I won't put those together. I really like Reyna but I prefer, personally, to avoid repeating "uh" endings so my picks for you are...Nadine Mayumi Gilda and Victor Ulan Gaspare

On the boy side, I like Gerard and Blaise the best, with a soft spot for Renard and Victor.I'm not familiar with any of your First Middles, but to my untutored ears and eyes, the best would be Magiting and Ulan, with Makisig as the runner-up.Second Middles: Gaspare and Giacinto. Runner-up Giacinto.For a girl: not Camille, I think, not with Clarisse as her big sister. So, Matilde (think I prefer Mathilde) or Hester, to give you another star! First Middles: Marikit and Dalisay.Second Middles: Gilda is OK though I much prefer Giustina.I'm shamelessly chickening out of making combos! But, you have my options ... and good luck.

No problem... thanks for the comments!!From your comments, I could make Gerard Magiting Gaspare or Victor Makisig Giacinto as a runner up. Both flow well and make decent names. I also happen to like Magiting and Ulan the best... but Dh really like Makisig because of the meaning "refined grace" in his language. We will see... but you nailed his favorites in each category so far. He would go with Gerard Makisig Gaspare.
For the girls, you seem to be on his page as well. He would like Matilde Daliday Giustina, whereas I would have preferred Hester Marikit Gilda of your choices. I love feedback, so your response is appreciated. Thanks!

Cecile is a lovely name! Thanks. I have always thought it pretty. In fact, I like most C-names... which is a problem when we already used Clarisse. However, Cecile Perlas Gilda is adorable, so I might have to consider it anyway. Veronica Marikit Gilda was suggested by someone else too, and I love it. Nadine Perlas Gilda is my top choice right now too. Blaise Malakas Gaspare is nice, I like the flow. Edgar Kidlat is my favorite of your pairings those... someone else used it too I think, and I find it very bold and refreshing. All in all, thanks.

Thank you. Not many people combo-ed Marie-Noelle or Margaux, and I was interested to see how they would work. I really like Margaux Perlas Gilda. Its a strong pairing and it sounds good too. Roman Dakila Gaspare is interesting. I never really thought of using Roman instead of Romain, but I do like it in this case.

Thank you. I also think Nadine and Clarisse work so well together. I feel like it might be Nadine if it's a girl. So... we will see!I love the combo you created too. Nadine is my fave, but Marikit is my husband's favorite. I hadn't really considered putting them together. Plus, Marikit means "pretty" so she would be a pretty hyacinth ;). Edgar Ulan Gaspare is a great choice too. Very earthy and natural... I think DH will like it.

Nice, you created some good flow there. I like all of the combos. I also keep forgetting that I can use Noelle or Noel on it's own. If you don't mind, I think I will take your suggestions and rearrange a bit to Noelle Reyna Giacinta. Lovely!(I also prefer Mathilde, but my husband and his family always says math-ilda when I spell it that way). Victor Malakas Giosue is stunning. Thank you.

You know... it never occurred to me to do Filipino names as the second middle name. I like some of the combos you came up with. I will speak to DH about the name order... though we might stick to our order since we used it for Clarisse, but nothing is set in stone!

Hester Mayumi Gilda is adorable! Thank you for that suggestion! I do like your other suggestions as well. Gerard Malakas seems to be getting a lot of votes, which I appreciate. Of your suggestions - I really like Titus and Vitus, but they end in an 's' sound which clashes a bit with the "s" sound in Clarisse. We know a couple of tiny Damians, or I would consider that too. We almost put Darien on the list - which is similar. Thanks for reminding me. Adelaide is one of my very favorite names! A friend has a baby a couple months ago and used it though. Nadia was on our list, but became Nadine. Belina, Marisa and Lucinda are adorbs. Flavia is interesting as I have an ancestor named Flavio. That would actually be a decent choice - though I am not sure if it clashes with Clarisse. THANKS!

Congratulations!Marie, Margo (I prefer Margot to this spelling but I prefer both to Margaux, which seems too fussy), Matilde, and Tiffany are my top choices with Clarisse for girls. I also love Camille and Maylis but Camille seems a little matchy with Clarisse and I don't like the repeated -is sound with Maylis and Clarisse,From your boy's names, I like Victor, Edgar and Dashiell best but I'm not loving any of them. Victor always seems a little 'too obvious' as a word name, and it isn't a word I particularly would like to be named. Edgar is cute but kind of gawky- Ed or Eddie as potential nicknames are what redeem it for me. Dashiell is handsome but people seem to pronounce it in different ways? I find that confusing. I was just looking at your name list in your profile and Joah stood out to me. Any chance that will be under consideration? Clarisse and Joah sound great together IMO.Dalisay Gilda or Mayumi Gilda are my fave mns.So:Marie Dalisay Gilda
Margo Dalisay Gilda
Matilde Mayumi Gilda
Tiffany Dalisay GildaDashiell Ulan Gaspare
Victor Ulan Giacomo
Edgar Ulan GiacomoAnd can I throw in:
Joah Kidlat Gaspare

I adore Margot. But our last name is Payot. Margot Payot is kinda strange to me. Love to see some support for Tiffany as well. I really love it, but am not sure on usability right now. Thanks for the comments on Camille and Maylis... I agree, but just couldn't leave them off the list. Edgar is after my brother Edward, except that I do not like the name Edward. But I can see the gawky side too. Thanks. I will have to check on Dashiell and pronunciation. I have never really asked anyone about it IRL to see how they would say it. Good tip/ Joah is lovely, and yes, I would consider it. Joah Kidlat Gaspare is totally unexpected and cool. Kidlat is the boldest Filipino name we have listed and I am itching to use it. Thank you!

Maylie Dalisay! I have never thought to put those together. Thank you. I think I like Veronica Mayumi Gilda the best of your suggestions... quite pretty.
I also like all three of the boy suggestions. Edgar Ulan Gaspare appeals especially.

Congratulations!! :DFirst I will say, if it is a girl, I hope so much that you'll use Nadine. Clarisse and Nadine are just perfect together.If it was me, I would use...Girl: Nadine Marikit Gilda
or Nadine Mayumi Gilda (I think Nadine Mayumi flows better but Marikit is so adorable)Boy: Renard Malakas Giotto. Definitely.

I know! I am hoping for a girl... but will be happy with either. Nadine and Tiffany are my top choices, while DH likes Trina the best. We will see!Nadine Marikit Gilda is adorable. Thank you.
Renard Malakas Giotto is my fave combo... love that you paired it. DH is not a huge fan... But I am.

I don't think they are aweful. Remember that these names have meaning to us, so even if the flow seems weird to you... it is totally our style! :)Marie Perlas Gilda is actually quite lovely. Perlas Gilda is one of my favorite middle pairings and I have never thought to put Marie in front. Thanks. Gerard Dakila Gaspare is another good set, thanks. I like the flow and the meaning is quite nice as well.
