Yo,
I've received mixed opinions on the name Voltairine. I would use it to honour one of my idols, Voltairine de Cleyre, who was herself named after Voltaire. I love it, so feel free to tell your honest opinion of it, but don't expect to talk me out of it :p But it's fine if you hate it.
Anyway I was wondering more about combos. I have always stuck Voltairine in the middle name slot, but suddenly I'm more keen on it in the first name slot. The problem is that it's kind of hard to find a good middle name for her. I came up with Voltairine
Beatrice Lucy, which I like quite a bit, but I need more suggestions from skilled combo makers such as yourselves. I like both one and two middle names. I'd prefer names in the same wavelength as
Beatrice and
Lucy - old-fashioned, established, feminine, shortish names - but by all means, go wild.
Also, if you had a child named Voltairine, would you give her an occasional nickname? And if so, what would it be?
