Mirah is my husband's favourite name. It took all I could do to move it to middle name status. I don't think I could erase it completely, unfortunately. Simone I love enough to use as a first name as well but he only likes it as a middle I think.
the first names sound nice together but the only combo that I think flows at all is Gretchen Simone... the other two clash in either period or ethnicity
Amelia Isobel doesn't flow badly, but when I hear Amelia I immediately think of a French origin and when I hear Isobel I think Spanish... not that those names are exclusive to those countries or that I'm an expert on name origins haha, but those are my knee jerk reactions.
I think most of the names are pretty, but I agree with someone else above; the only name that flows well is Gretchen Simone. Eleanor Mirah doesn't work well together, and Amelia Isobel is too much of a mouthful.
thanks for your input. I am not the hugest fan of the Eleanor Mirah combo either I just promised my husband we could use Mirah as a middle name because it's his favourite.
I don't know if Gretchen goes with Amelia and Eleanor or not. Not that names have to go together, but to me, it does sound like the odd one out. I love the name Eleanor and Mirah, so those go nice together. I don't like Simone or Isobel.

Date: 2008-04-27 04:49 pm (UTC)The Eleanor Mirah combo is not my ideal but I have to make some concessions for my husband (he loves Mirah).
I'm curious as to why you think Amelia Isobel doesn't go well together though?
