[Opinions] Re: Charles and Isabel

Woah, that's a lot of combos! ;-D
As usual, I think most of your combos are great. In fact, I think it'd be easier on my part to list the combos I think don't flow the best:
Charles Angus - The double -s endings don't sound the best to me
Charles Sidney - Most names where the fn ends in the same letter the mn starts with flow too well to me, and result in the combo sounding like one name to me. This is no exception: this sounds like Charlesidney to me
Charles Rhys - See Charles Angus. Also, this combo sounds a little hissy to me, because I especially emphasise Rhys's S sound
Charles Piers - Ditto
Isabel Marigold - This is pretty decent, but it sounds a little long; most 3-3 syllablically patterned combos do to me
Isabel Joia - This just doesn't flow great imo. It has something to do with Joia's J sound, but otherwise I can't put my finger on precisely why this combo doesn't sound good to me
Isabel Honora - See Isabel Marigold
Isabel Fiona - Ditto
Isabel Verena - Tritto
Isabel Lilias - Quartto. Also, this is heavy on the Ls for my ears
Isabel Maria - Um, Quintto? Maria Isabel sounds better to me, probably because I'm used to it as a common Hispanic combo
Isabel Josephine - Er, Sextto?
Isabel Celeste - This sounds rather hissy to me
Isabel Beatrice - Again with the 3-3 syllable pattern. Also, the Bs are too close together for my ears
