Would you say that as Ay-duh-lune or add-uh-lune?

[DelphiMoon]

Add-uh-lune. I actually am not a fan of Addie names whatsoever (except for Adelheid), but I just thought that that one is beautiful for someone else! 

[Nings8]

Ooh gotcha! I actually really like Adalune

 

What do you think of the name Maeve Lilith? I know Lilith has negative connotations, but how do you feel about it as a middle?

[DelphiMoon]

I find both names really difficult to say, so that's not my favorite. Maren Lilia? Maeve Lyra? 

[Nings8]

Okay okay hear me out... I'm re-reading the Hunger Games, and I ran into Maysilee! What do you think?

 

It sounds a little juvenile, but honestly I'm really into it right now

 

Maybe as a middle? Norah Maysilee would be so cute ahhhh!!

[DelphiMoon]

hmmm. That is quite sweet! How do you feel about Astrid and Imogen? And any nicknames to avoid the inevitable for Astrid?

[apiston229]

Briar Rose is one of my guilty pleasures, but I could never actually use it because of the Sleeping beauty connection. I would however use Aurora with the nn Rory

[Nings8]

I love love love Astrid! Aster has actually been one of my top names for years, but I see what you mean by the nickname issue. I think it might be a stretch, but maybe Terri could be a potential nickname?

 

As for Imogen, it's not my personal style, but I can still appreciate the classic vibe and beautifully royal images it gives. From the two I'd choose Astrid, but both are beautiful!

[DelphiMoon]

Unfortunately I have a Terry in my close family, so that won't quite work. *sigh*

[hidari11]

My guilty pleasure is Aurora. This name is very rare in Poland and there is another problem. In Poland children sometimes have a speech impediment related to pronouncing the "R" that cannot be eliminated. R is pronounced differently in Polish. Instead of Aurora, there would be Aulola. I am afraid of the fact my future child could have a problem with pronouncing her own name.

I’m loving Angel, Kai, Nico and Logan for boys right now.

[DelphiMoon]

Oooh! Nico is super cute! 

[Riley_Jane]

I have so many guilty pleasures! I'll just put a few. I love these, but I'm not sure that I would be brave enough to actually use them!

 

Girl:

Avonlea

Salem

Fable

Poet

 

Boy:

Rhydian

Bellamy

Caspian

Schuyler

I'm so obsessed with Fable as a middle. Also, Avonlea Swan is a gorgeous combo if you want it! Any Fable combos you like? Can be really out there or reasonable.

Evangeline Fable

Lillian Fable

Odette Fable

[DelphiMoon]

There's something magical about Fable Ottilie. 

[LiamOutYonder]

I’ve kinda started loving German-ish boy names, but that wouldn’t work to well here in the states, but I’ll list them anyways.

Kaiser, could go by Kai??
Timo

Emilio, would Milo/Miles be too much of a stretch? Maybe Lee?

Niklas

Stefan

Jakub

Immanuel, which isn’t really German but I’m loving it right now

I also love Lee as the given name, not a nickname. Obviously not German there.

and Cy, which isn’t German at all. It’s pronounced “sigh”, which could be a problem.

[Mikayla.]

Clementine and Persephone, super stunning names imo. But super risky..
