[Opinions] Re: Irish and German Names WDYT
Juliana Niahm - Very pretty name. Impressively so, actually. It flows wonderfully.
Alannah Margareth - Not being a Margaret fan, I would never have considered the name Margareth, but it goes well with Alannah (this spelling), which I've always liked.
Isabel Aislin - Another pretty name. However, Isabel does not mean "beautiful." It is a variant of Elizabeth, which means "my God is an oath."
Kiera Tulpe - Kiera is okay, I guess. Don't like Tulpe at all, or Tulip, or Tiwlip - basically, to me, that's one flower that doesn't belong as a name.Nolan Emmerich - It's nice enough on its own, but then I start thinking of the hit-or-miss filmmaker Roland Emmerich.
Leo Eamon - Interesting name. I believe Leo Edmund was in my Top 10 at one point, but Leo Eamon does have a pleasing sound.
Casey Richard - I like both names individually (especially Richard), but I don't like them together at all. What about Casey Gosse, or Ciaran Richard?
Gregor Declan - I would *really* like it, if it didn't remind me so much of the character Gregor Clegane from "Game of Thrones" (otherwise known as "The Mountain That Rides").

Thanks for repleying but Isabel does have two possible meanings one is a variant of Elizabeth or it could be a variant of Isabella that means Beautiful

No, Isabella is still a variant of Elizabeth. I have a feeling that the idea that Isabella means "beautiful" has something to do with Isabella "Bella" Swan from Twilight. Bella means "beautiful." Isabella doesn't. It has the same meaning as Elizabeth.It's a lovely name. I'm just putting the information out there because, since you say that you're picking names in part for their meanings, I don't want you to be misinformed.
