HelpRe: June Top Ten
in reply to a message by NobodyOfConsequence
Elijah Jonathan - The "zha" running into a "juh" sound is a bit off, though I like the names individually.
August Noah - I've never been a fan of the name August (especially since I keep picturing month-names as feminine), but this is a nice combo.
Leo Alexander - Distinguished, respectable, perhaps a little sarcastic. Great name.
Micah Jarrod - Not to crazy about this spelling of Jared, but I suppose it does look better alongside Micah. Nice sound altogether, though.
Thomas Asher - Sophisticated without being too "letterhead."
Archer William - Don't like any "arch" names, I'm sorry.
Riley Ezekiel - Riley is so youthful compared to the historic Ezekiel that the combo is startling at first. Eventually, though, it grows on you.
Jack Carter - Honestly, this looks like the first and last name of perhaps 100 American males; probably a good number in the U.K., too.
Cairo Malachi - Love Malachi, dislike Cairo as a name.
Hugo Oliver - I'd prefer Hugh Oliver, actually; the Os running into each other are a bit... mushy.
Lilia Adele "Lili" - Like with Hugo Oliver above, the consecutive As "mush" together; though the individual names are pretty. "Lili" also looks rather cutesy - I think Lily would be just fine as a nickname.
Willow Sarah - The pretty yet popular Sarah is a good foil for the rare, witchy Willow. I like this one!
India Sinead - I don't like Indie at all, since it doesn't sound like a name to me but rather like indie films and the Indy 500. But India Sinead, despite being two totally different genres (kind of like Riley Ezekiel), has a really great flow.
Ariana Holly "Ari" - Very "liquid" combo, and I'm not sure the names actually go together. Ari is a cute nickname, though.
Sasha April - See my note for Lilia Adele (though I like these individual names less).
Zoe Scarlett - Cool name.
Aurora Hazel - Less liquid combo than Ariana Holly, but Aurora is seriously one of the most liquid, most difficult names to say. At least for me. My mouth trips all over the Rs. I like Hazel, though.
Anastasia Claire "Ana" - Love the name Anastasia, and Claire is all right as a middle name. The "air" sound goes well with Anastasia, though may I suggest Anastasia Maris?
Jade Autumn - I like the names individually (especially Jade), though together it's really, really hippie.
Alix Lailah - Alix is a cool, medieval-looking name, bit Lailah looks very odd next to it. Is it pronounced like Leila, or Lyla?
Elizabeth Amalia "Lizzie" - Amalia is a good middle name for the classic Elizabeth.
Please rate my personal short name lists (the latter includes combos):
