Re: Let’s Talk About Suffixes
I really like -elle and -belle suffixes despite them being so very common, same with -ella and -bella. Also oddly enough, despite I'd generally say I have a fairly traditional taste in names, I like the suffix -lyn(n) quite a bit, which doesn't seem to be common with more traditional namers, although I don't like when it feels extremely made-up. I also quite like the suffix -linda.
-Lene sounds quite dated to me, just like -leen and -reen, and not particularly inspiring, although I do really like Helene (especially pronounced the Norwegian way), Selene and Mylene.
-Son is too trendy and overused, and I especially don't like it on girls as it makes little sense logically. I do kind of like Jackson though, but Jack is better.
-Ley/-lee/-leigh also feel too trendy and boring, the vast majority of them anyway.
-line is nice and classy, there are a lot of -ine names in general that I quite like, even Madeline that you mentioned.
I don't care about most -ette names and find -anne way better compared to -enne.
Lately I really like -ija/iya suffix as in a lot of Slavic female names.Emilia Anna, proud and doting cat mummy to Russian blue Misha
