How would you like Erik, Nora, Lina & Theo for Siblings?
Are they matching good? How do you like the names? Are they international? To which country would you put the names?

Nora and Theo alone would make me assume the family was American or Canadian. They are very "normal" names over here. Erik with a K and Lina make me think the set might be European. Maybe Sweden or Norway.I like Theo and don't mind the others at all.

The names are all nice enough and they would work nicely for siblings. I would prefer Eric, Norah and Lena to Erik, Nora and Lina though.

Lina has an appropriately Scandinavian feel, but I dislike it intensely. LIEna? LEEna? Even LINa? Life is too short.Erik, Nora and Theo work well together. Maybe Nina or Tina instead of Lina, or just Caroline or Carolina?

I like Nora, Lina and Theo. Erik is dull. I'd say these are very Scandinavian names.Norah, Lena, Theo and Eric seem a bit more "international" in terms of not knowing if they are North American, European, or Australian/Kiwi.

I think these work really great as siblings. I love that they are all two syllable names and that they are all four letter names. They all have a very similar feel without seeming too similar. So A+ perfect sib set! :D You win the naming game!I can see these siblings being from America or from Canada. They probably would work well in other countries but I'm not familiar enough with other countries to judge for which exact countries. I think all these names seem fairly international that meaning they would be easily recognized in most European countries.

They give me a Scandinavian vibe. I think they go all right, although Erik and Theo kind of clash to me.

I would say that the names are scandinavian. I don't really think Theo match the others. I see Erik, Nora and Lina as Swedish classics, while Theo is modern. Theodor would match better.

I wouldn't say they are matching that well...I like all of the names except Nora - which I don't dislike, I'm just very "meh" about it, I also think it's a bit faux-trendy.Seeing the names individually, I'd say Erik is Swedish. Nora and Theo are English but come from very different social classes. And Lina could be from anywhere.Lina is the most international name. Eric to say is, but obviously the spelling Erik gives it the clue that it's Scandinavian/European, rather than English/American.

I think they make a good sibling set. My least favourite name out of the group is Nora, but it's a pretty name. I think these names travel well and are known in many countries.

I don't think Theo goes with the other names. Erik and Lina have a Scandinavian feel but Nora is pretty neutral (no specific country, but a Western world name). Theo is mostly Anglo-American to me.

It's a good set. Individually I find the names a bit plain, but they are strong and match well. I would think a Scandinavian country, Norway perhaps?

Yes, I quite like those together. I would think Denmark, maybe.
