This was almost my name! My mom had Carlisle and Christopher on her shortlist. So I've always kinda felt like Carlisle is my "alter ego". Not Christopher, definitely Carlisle.

Did Twilight ruin this name? I feel like the Twilight influence in general is starting to slip, but it was one of the only places you saw this name.

---

Maybe I would have been Carlisle Nicholas? That's actually pretty dang nice.

I love the "lisle" part, it's so glittering.

---

Mary Carlisle is really pretty. I do like Carlisle for all genders, it seems very flexible, I think because of the glitter involved.

Carlisle is a bit snooty as a first name. A bit highfalutin, a bit precious. Maybe something a bit gothic too? I love it for that but I don't know if I'd want to lean into it or try to temper it. I'm having trouble getting a firm grip on Carlisle's spirit and none of the combos really please me too much except Vivian Carlisle, Lydia Carlisle, and Edward Carlisle but I want to find good ones where it's in the fn slot....
