[Opinions] Faith and Mercy
Too much for siblings?If so, would Alexandra Faith and Mercy Christine be okay?I really love Mercy - it's beautiful, simple, and unusual. Any other middle names? Siblings would probably be Catherine Helen, Jonas Raphael, and Leonard Allan.

Since one is a middle name, it's definitely not a big deal. If they were both first names, it would be a little much.-- Sarah

Your choices in names are beautiful, I do NOT think the pair of names would be too much for siblings. A name represents a person and it would only make them more unique. Besides, have fun with choosing names, they'll be thankful later.

Yeah I think that they would be a bit much as siblings.Alexandra Faith & Mercy Christine would be fine though. Alexandra Faith is lovely!Mercy really isn't my style though.Alexandra Faith would sound great with Catherine Helen, Jonas Raphael & Leonard Allan : )

In one of the Louisa May Alcott books, "Eight Cousins", there were elderly sisters names Peace and Plenty. And that was in the 1800's! I like "Peace". "Plenty", not so much.

You can do Faith and Mercy for first names. I like themes like that. A roommate in college was Hope, and her sisters were Faith and Charity.

I think Faith & Mercy might be considered too much for most people, but I like them. I like Merit, too. :o) Anyway, the combos Alexandra Faith & Mercy Christine would be more socially accepted than, say, Faith Alexandra & Mercy Christine. I think they're lovely combos, btw, although TBH, Christine really isn't my style. (I just found out recently that my parents were wavering between Christine & Korrine for my name!) I also think that Mercy Alexandra and Faith Christine would be nice, too. :o)Check Out Blinkyou.com for thousands of custom glitters and layouts

I think Alexandra Faith and Mercy Christine are lovely. I completely agree with you abour Mercy, I read a book in which a character was named Mercy I think it was called "The Stone Diaries". The sibling names are great too. I wouldn't think Faith and Mercy were too much together as first names.

I love love LOVE Alexandra Faith...Alexandra is one of my favourite names and this combo was a potential awhile back. It is lovely and classy and it sounds fabulous with Mercy Christine. I slightly prefer Mercy Christina, but it is very nice. Mercy is a name I could never use myself, but it is so refreshing!
And yes, I think Faith and Mercy is too much for siblings.

I don't think they're too much for siblings, honestly. Faith and Mercy are both beautiful virtues to have, and to wish them of your children is nice. Besides, they'll spend most of their lives not being Faith-and-Mercy.I like Mercy Christine and offer Mercy Helen as a suggestion--it just sounds so old-fashioned to me. :) Alexandra Faith is nice, too.Of Faith and Mercy, Mercy is definitely the one I prefer overall, but like I said--both good virtues. :DArray

If they were both first names it'd be too much, but Alexandra Faith and Mercy Christine (*Chrisell cheers for Christine*) are fine.I was wondering something similar about an hour ago when trying to decide whether I could make Victoria Joy & Cecily Faith sisters!Alexandra, Mercy, Catherine, Jonas and Leonard is a very distinguished sibset.

I think Faith and Mercy may be a little much, but Alexandra Faith and Mery sound lovely together. I think, though, that Mercy Christina would sound a little better than Christine - I'm not sure why exactly, it just sounds a little better to me, and seems to flow better.I think Mercy is lovely too - some other middle name ideas:
Mercy Isabel
Mercy Theresa
Mercy Theodora
Mercy Penelope
Mercy Sophia
Mercy Aurelia
Mercy Francesca
Mercy Annabel
Mercy Emmeline
Mercy Juliana
Mercy Iris
Mercy Dannica
Mercy Selene
Mercy AbigailAnd I think it sounds fine with that sibset - Catherine, Leonard and Alexandra are lovely names, and I absolutely love Jonas!Check Out Blinkyou.com for thousands of custom glitters and layouts
