-ina vs. names

Hi everybody. We made a poll earlier about some of our -ina names. We got some great suggestions. We would like to honour family members named Monica, Charles, Caris, Deidre, Hermia, and Hector. Those names will be used in one way or another in her MIDDLE name. I’ll post some names in a comment. Thanks!

The Top Baby Name is...

-ina

For First names, we like
Nina
Dina
Gina
Lina
Elina
Verina
Irina

For Middle names
Monica
Charlotte
Caris
Deidre
Hermia
Hermionie
(How do we use Hector??)
Is there any way we could put more than just 1 name in her middle name?
Thanks so much!

Poll Leader-
First off, congradulations on your pregnancy!
Second, I’m glad you used my suggestion, Irina!

Now, for the naming:
Nina-A beautiful name! Classy and underused, it ages well.
Dina-I am not fond of this one
Gina-I don’t really like this one either
Lina-very cute! Ages nicely, as well
Elina-love it spelled Elena, but since you need ina names, this spelling is fine, and pretty
Verina-i dislike this on...sorry
Irina-love it!

Monica-beautiful! This name is absolutely gorgeous!
Charlotte-it’s nice as a middle name!
Caris-I don’t like this as much
Deidre-I am not fond of this one
Hermia-nice
Hermionie-very Harry Potter. I like it though.
Hector-maybe do Hectora, Tora, Toria, Tori

Nina Monica is gorgeous!
Lina Toria is nice.
Elina Monica is pretty, too!
Irina Monica is also lovely!

For middle name, I would go with Monica.
or Monica Charlotte for a double middle name.

Nina Monica Charlotte is stunning!

I just saw the comment saying you didn’t want a double middle name.

Sorry!
instead of Nina Monica Charlotte, Nina Charlottica?
I still love Nina Monica though.

Thanks "Irina" suggester!
Are there reasons you don’t lke Dina, Gina, Verina, Caris, and Deidre? Just so I can see your thinking.
Hermione is a little Harry Potter, now you mention it, but DH is a huge fan, so it may not be a problem. I really like Toria! I love it. I may actually use it as a first name. I really like Toria Charlotte.
WDYT? Thanks a bunch!

Charis is another way to spell Caris, and its said the same way. A benefit would be it honors Charles and Caris at the same time.
I’m not a fan of Toria, sorry. It seemes like a strange verion of Victoria, not Hector

Of the fns, Dina is my favorite. I love Caris of the middle name choices, but am partial to the spelling Charis (my daughter’s name). If you used Dina Charis that would sort of combine Caris & Charlotte.

Other ideas:
Dina Charmaine (sort of Charlotte & Hermione)
...and that’s all I got. LOL! GL!

I don’t like Dina because it doesnt’ sound attractive, in my opinon. It also looks like it could be pronounced DIE-Na, like Dina-saur

I don’t like Gina simply because it does not appeal to me. I suppose it is a decent name, just not my taste.

Verina, while it may be a name, sounds made up and awkward for a child, though nice on an adult

Caris is another that just doesn’t appeal to me. It is okay as a mn, but not my taste. Same with Deidre.

Toria Charlotte is lovely!
It is very pretty and it ages nicely.

Natasha- I love Charis! Thanks so much! I see exactly what you mean. I think its cute, but its steering too far away from Hector.
Thanks, everyone

Oh, I like Capriana’s idea of Charmaine!
