So I came across the name Onnolee on one of my favorite name blogs Appellation Mountain (Here).

It has a great story behind it (not just another misspelling of Annalee) and I love the rhythm of the name.

What do you think?

Does it sound good as a middle name for Sidda? Sidda Onnolee?

Onnolee isn't my style, but I can understand the appeal as I tend to love girl names that end in the the "lee" sound! I think it makes an interesting middle name.

However, Sidda Onnolee isn't my favorite combo... Sidda ends in the "uh" sound, which kind of clashes with the "ah" sound that Onnolee begins with, in my opinion.

I'm not a fan of either name, I prefer Onnolee to Sidda (if pronounced Sid-da) though, Sidda reminds me of SIDS (but if prnounced Side-dah) then it reminds me of Cider) and that's just a little depressing to me. I don't know if I would pronounce Onnolee with an 'ah' sound, more like the beginning of honour! It's almost like Honourlee to me.

I pron. Sidda (SID duh) and I think I agree about the flow of Sidda Onnolee. It does kind of sound like one word when you say it.
