[Opinions] Re: Sol
I love Marisol and I can easily see Sol as a nn for it. Marisol Ava, Marisol Eva, Marisol Iris? Or perhaps the French word for sun, Soleil ("so-LAY") with a nn of Sol? I used to like Solana alot too. That could also work as a formal name for Sol. Isolde? Is there a feminine form of Solomon that might work? On its own it feels too short / abrupt. But I love a challenge. So how about:Sol Victoria
Sol Phoebe (sun and moon)
Sol Artemis / Artemisia (ditto)
Sol Diana (ditto)
Sol Anjali
Sol Parvati
Sol Indira
Sol Apollonia (sun and sun)
Sol Apollinariya / Apollinaria
Sol Vesna (sun and spring)
Sol Hestia / Vesta (sun and hearth)
Sol Consuelo
Sol Isidora
Sol Evadne
Sol Vanessa
Sol Helena (sun and light)
Sol Oriana (golden sun)
Sol Raphaela
Sol Polaris / Polaire (sun and North Star)
Sol Aurora (sun and dawn)
Sol Grenane (ditto, Irish "greh-NAHN")
Sol Hermione
Sol Helianthe (sun and sunflower)
Sol Parthenope
Sol Graciela
Sol Margarida / Margarethe / Margaretta
Sol Veronica
Sol Edina
Sol Edurne (sun and snow)
Sol Johari [sun and jewel (Swahili)]
Sol Marjani (sun and coral)
Sol Alexandra
Sol Fiammetta (sun and flame)
Sol Benedicta (blessing of the sun)I didn't know what vibe you were going for so this is all over the place, stylistically. Happy hunting. I'd love to hear if you like any or not. Thanks! This was fun.

I'm not a fan of Marisol or Isolde. I have thought about Soleil but I think it's a bit too cheesy for me. I'm not sure why I find Soleil cheesy and not Sol haha. Solana actually crossed my mind...I don't hate it but I'm not big on "ana" names in general. Wow, thank you so much for all your suggestions! I honestly think all your combos are great! These are the ones that jumped out at me...Sol Anjali
Sol Diana
Sol Indira (which has now made me think about Sol Indiana)
Sol Graciela
Sol EdinaThanks again! :)

Yay, team Sol. :-)I saw above where someone started a Sollemnia thread. That (and Solange / Solene) might work as a formal name for Sol.

Solene...that just made me think of Solena (so-LAY-na). I kind of like it! Sollemnia seems a little too much for me and I'm not a huge fan of the sound of Solange.
