Help[Opinions] Peter and Anthea
Peter nn Pete and Anthea nn Thea are our top 2 names currently. They are each honoring one of our Dad's, both of whom are deceased.
Our current fave combos are Peter Lorcan and Anthea Florence, what are your thoughts?
Middle Name Ideas: all are after meaningful places, honor family (our moms are Carolyn and Sharon = Aro) or have meanings we appreciate (from our family's heritage: Chinese, Italian and Irish)
If you have other ideas with nice meanings throw them in:)
Boy: Firenze, Lorcan, Kai, Aro, Li
Girl: Florence, Christine, Li, Aro, Mei

These two names are really nice together! Hope you get to use both. Peter Lorcan and Anthea Florence are both great combos. Something about the combo Peter Lorcan rang a bell to me, so I googled it and it looks like Peter O'Toole had a son named Lorcan.
You know, back in the day, Florence was used for boys as well. Not saying you should name your son Peter Florence, but not saying you shouldn't either. Firenze seems like a cool middle name for a girl, as well. Also love Peter Li and Anthea Li.

I like Peter Lorcan a lot. Lorcan really balances Peter well. It gets rid of the bad parts of Peter, if that makes sense... I'm not sure how to describe how. It makes it sound more mature and less common, maybe?
Anthea is great, but I don't like the combo as much. I think I'd prefer Althea Florence.
As for the middle names: I like Kai, that'a always a good mn. Aro is cool but it needs a long first name IMO (same with Li and Mei.) Florence and Christine are good but only for frillier names, and Florence is better than Christine. I like Firenze, but only for a girl.
Do you like any longer "Aro" names? (Aronia, Aron, Arodana, etc. or something that ends with aro like Amparo, Lazaro, etc? Ademaro, Gasparo, Gennaro, Lazzaro, and Tammaro are Italian and end with aro.)
If you wanted two middle names you could make the initials ARO... like Anthea Rionach Orsina or something. (I don't know if your last name starts with O but if it does you could use AR).
My suggestions for Anthea:
Italian:
(warning: if you don't like combos where the names end in the same letter, most of this list is irrelevant)
Anthea Brigida
Anthea Brunilda
