HelpSister Names for Ramona
Hello!
This is my first post to the message boards. I've been a little nervous about traversing this internet plain, because the lay-out isn't one I'm familiar with and I have had some really bad experiences with baby name message boards in the past. I love this site though and the polls are wonderful. They're so helpful and it's not completely uncommon to find polls involving names that I don't hear day-in and day-out. It's hard for me to describe what a godsend that is to me and still be brief about it.
I wanted to ask for some help because of the polls. I've been seeing the name Ramona drifting around a bit there. Personally, I think of Ramona from Scott Pilgrim vs the World. It's a good movie and that quirky character is actually why I like the name.
I recently realized that a union between two of my characters (for my books series) would result in a lot of kids. They'd mostly have girls, and I've decided that their first daughter should be named Ramona. It's perfect. The main character is a rebellious, strong-willed lounge singer and the guy is more like a mercenary, with a sense of humor and a strong sense of family. Ramona fits as a name for these two because it sounds strong but it's also a little quirky. It's not exactly normal, but it's not so out there that one would wonder where they got it. It's not like Elizabeth or Marilyn. It's different.
The reason I need help is because I got this name from watching other people's activity. It's never occurred to me to use it before. Instead, you lovely people brought it to my attention and I'm hoping you can help me out finding some sister names. What names do you think work on that Strong but Quirky level. Ramona could even be more like Serious but Graceful or a Youthful, Old Soul kind of feel.
Personally, I'm leaning towards the name Mavis, but I would really like more opinions and options. I'd also like it if you could try to stay away from names that end with an "E" sound at the end. They don't flow well with the rest of the name.
If you're coming up empty and all you can think of is boy names, I don't mind a few brother names as well. She might have a brother or two. I'm not certain yet.
