A little bit of fun..

 

if you like name 'smooshes' alternatively called Portmanteau, amalgamation or even hybrids! then here's a thread for you!

 

 

* An amalgamated name is a name that is formed by combining several previously existing names. These may take the form of an acronym (where only one letter of each name is taken) or a blend (where a large part of each name is taken, such as the first syllable).

For example (twilight one): Renesmee

* A Portmanteau word is used to describe a linguistic blend, namely "a word formed by blending sounds from two or more distinct words and combining their meanings, a portmanteau word is typically formed by combining two or more existing words that all relate to a singular concept which the portmanteau word is meant to describe, such as Spanish and English, into Spanglish ? 

Or Like another twilight example: Carlisle & Charlie , Bella and Edwards fathers the names created Renesmee's middle name Carlie.. 

 

 

Why not add them all here.. and can you come up with a name that is usable ?

 

 

 

Examples:  

Soleia -  (soh-LAY-uh) Soleil + Leia

Gretalynn -  Greta + Lynn

Jolexa - Jolene + Alexa

Eviella - Evie + Ella..

 

Hartson- Harvey + Watson

Decler - Declan + Archer

Willfinn - William + Finn 

 

 

annnnd GO!
