I've been reading this community for a while. I'm not planing on having children for a long time, I just really like names.
What are your favorite first and middle name combinations using the following names? Or what names would you pair with these names?

*my favorites

Adia* 
Norah*
Nora
Juliet/Juliette (After my mother, her name is Julie) 
Marlena (Marley for short)*
Adeline
Adele
Macy
Madge
*Madelina (My parents almost named me Madeline, I like this variation)
Malia
Emery
Rae
Kay
*Charlotte
Gianna (I really like this name but I HATE Gigi for short)
Amani
Cecilia

I have a much easier time picking out girl names than boy names. It is hard to find uncommon boy names that aren't too out there. The only boy names that I can think of that I really like are Silas, Julian, and Caleb. 

Also, what is your name? What do you think of it?
My name is Phoebe Rose. I used to hate it more than anything when I was younger. People can never say it right when reading it, and 90% of the time when I tell people my name I have to repeat myself at least once because they think I said "Bebe" or "Dede". Plus, the only other Phoebes anyone knows of are on TV (Friends, Charmed).
I've grown to appriciate having a somewhat unusual name, I think it builds character. However, I'm still not really crazy about the sound my name. I do really like the way my first and middle names sound together though.

Adia* - I would think of that Sarah Mac song. It's ok
Norah* - I love this name, prefer Nora.
Nora - Yay!
Juliet/Juliette - nice, not too common
Marlena (Marley for short)* - this is cute. Marley is more of a non-permanent nn to me.
Adeline - Way cute!
Adele - cute and older than adeline
Macy - Like the store, no way
Madge - Ew. Old barbie doll.
*Madelina - cute. I like them both
Malia - Do you say MAH-lia or Muh-LEE-uh?
Emery - Way cute
Rae - nms at all
Kay - boring!
*Charlotte - nms but nice
Gianna - yeah Gigi is stripperish
Amani - looks like Armani as a typo.
Cecilia - nms but ok

I like your boys names a LOT. Caleb and Silas are on my list as well.

Oh, and my name is Rosalie Margaret. Rosalie is a name that was most popular in the 1830s. I HATE that it's so old-fashioned, but I do like its lack of popularity without being so out there. I go by Rose, which is fine if you don't mind a million babies with that middle name.

I know someone with that name Malia and it's pronounced Muh-LEE-uh, but I prefer MAH-lia. It's hawaiian.
