TYPO: it's supposed to be Alec, not Allec...

Vote for the best of the two choices. I'd also really appreciate comments below, but that's totally optional.

{1}
I like Matteo and Matthias about the same. Here's some stuff on each:

Matteo
popularity in 2009: 454
pronunciation according to baby names world: {mah-TEH-oh}
meaning: "Gift of God"

Matthias
popularity: 765
pronunciation: {mah-THY-ahss}
meaning: "Gift of God"

{2}
Same goes for Susannah and Phoebe. I love both of them.

Susannah
popularity in 2009: not in top 1000
pronunciation: {soo-ZAN-ah}
meaning: "Lily"

Phoebe
popularity: 325
pronunciation: {FEE-bee}
meaning: "bright; moon"

{3}
I definitely like Seren better, but Adele definitely flows better.

Adele
popularity in 2009: not in top 1000
pronunciation: {ah-DELL}
meaning: "Noble"

Seren
popularity: not in top 1000
pronunciation: {SEH-ren}
meaning: "Star"

They're all really cute! Love! Though, I have a slight bias toward Matthias, lol! It's a favorite... <3 Matteo sounds okay also, but I always feel like Matthias just sounds so... manly yet boyish! Lol, masculine lol! :)

Thanks! I was totally surprised at how uncommon Matthias is, especially considering it and Matthew are both classics. Matthew is just too popular for me anymore! I was starting to find it a bit boring. I honestly don't know which I like more, Matthias or Matteo. I'm solidly in between and so far the response is split 50/50. :)

Hehehe, at first I liked just Matthew myself! But as I studied names, it did become boring :/ Matthias just seems to have a certain feel that I like a lot :P I kinda like Matteo, but for whatever reason, the personality behind it turns me off ;) I guess I just like the personality I picture behind Matthias more, LOL! Though, both are very nice names ;)

It's really surprising how unpopular Matthias is! It does seem close enough to Matthew that it'd get used... I mean, people now adays are trying to get their "unique" names... Why not use a classic but still unique name like Matthias instead of misspelling a popular name (like using Zayden or Jaydynn instead of Jayden)? Wouldn't it make you a lot more unique, and your child ten times happier? :)

I LOVE Cordelia Violet Adele (three of my favorites!!!) and Phoebe is beautiful in the middle name spot.

Cordelia Seren is the base combo, and I like it more than Cordelia Violet. I also like both Violet and Seren better than Adele, but I think Adele sounds better. Hmmm. This poll helped me make up my mind about Susannah/Phoebe and Matthias, but I'm still undecided about Cordelia Violet _______.

I think that they both do sound nice. Cordelia Violet Seren flows fine, as long as the last name isn't a two syllable one, otherwise it'd just sound a bit... uneven. So if it's a two syllable one, I'd stick with Adele! But, if it happens to be longer, or even just one syllable, Seren would be fine :D
