WDYT?

What do you think of the combination Emmeline Rosemary Ruth? And how do you all pronounce Emmeline?

Also, is the name Hermione too connected to Harry Potter to ever be used seriously as a name? I really like the combination Isabella Hermione, but I'm afraid that the association is too strong. :/

I like Emmeline Rosemary, but I'm not a fan of Ruth. I pronounce it emma-leen, but I don't mine emma-line, either.

I haven't heard of the name Hermoine outside of Harry Potter, so I would definitely associate it with the books/movies. I wouldn't consider myself a big HP fan, either (I mean, I enjoyed the movies, but I watched them once or twice each, and that was that).

As a middle name, though, I don't think the association is such a big deal. I wouldn't use it as a first name because I'm sure people would be obnoxious about how you named her after the Harry Potter character.
