OT, but man did I have a huge crush on Rollo Weeks as a child.

Honeysuckle is unthinkable. Susan is dated but respectable. Perdita certainly draws attention to itself - I don't like the meaning or the likely nns. Rose bores me. Rollo is too close to the chocolate toffee sweets. Percival is OK; has more dignity than just Percy. Loring ... just another lnfn I suppose.
Wade is cheap and nasty. Rupert tries so hard to be one of Bertie Wooster's friends. Sebastian has a very down-market vibe where i live, but I believe it's thought of as quite distinguished elsewhere - am I right? Humphrey ... I knew one who became an electrical engineer and, I think, went to the Antarctic for a year. The name still doesn't impress me, though the Antarctic does. Carrington: Lord Carrington, top Tory? Carrington, Bloomsbury artist? Weird, either way.

Love the names Perdita Rose & Rupert Sebastian.
I don’t like the name Honeysuckle, but I do really like the name Honey.

Loving: Perdita Rose, Rollo Percival, Rupert Sebastian and Humphrey. I've got Humphrey on my short list of future cat names. It's so grumpy and lovable at the same time.
As for Honeysuckle I could only see it as a middle name. Blanche Honeysuckle is a favorite over-the-top Southern Belle combo of mine. Ms Weeks is pretty and hopefully wasn't teased too much as a child. But yeah, "suck / suckle" is not for the feint of heart. A similar GP middle name is Honeycomb. :0)

Perdita reminds me of Purgatory for some reason, it also sounds... let's say, unpleasantly weird in my language.
Rollo is ok, a little bit strange. Rock 'n' Rollo:)
And Honeysuckle, yeah, I agree with everyone mentioned "suck" part, it's extremely off-putting.
What about Honeyblossom? Yet another Honey name.
All in all, Honey- names are not my cup of tea.
Rollo is ok, a little bit strange. Rock 'n' Rollo:)

No to Honeysuckle, it sounds innuendo-ish and not a pretty word either. The contrast is jarring next to Susan.
Perdita Rose is beautiful. I love Perdita.
I don't like Rollo. I think of the chocolate covered caramel candy. Percival is very handsome.
I like Wade. Not a fan of Rupert or Sebastian but they work well together. Humphrey Carrington is too much for me.

Perdita is pretty in a 19th-century Western romance novel kind of way.
Honeysuckels, well, it sucks.
Rollo sounds like a big fat guy. And also like those little chocolate-covered caramel candies that look like tiny dog turds.

I dislike Honeysuckle because of the "suck" and "suckle" part. But Honey by itself is a bit of a GP of mine. I think it's sweet in the UK where Honey isn't common as an affectionate nickname but in the US where everyone calls everyone Honey all the time I could imagine it would be an annoying name to have. I like Susan but it feels oddly comical next to Honeysuckle.
I love Perdita but I hate the meaning. Rose is cute.
Percival is cool. Loring is okay. Rollo just makes me think of chocolate and chubby puppy in 101 Dalmatians so I find it comical.
Wade is ugly (sorry). Rupert is cool. Sebastian is pretentious. Humphrey is okay. Carrington is okay.

What about Honeycomb instead of Honeysuckle, especially as a GP middle name? I agree about the "suck / suckle" in Honeysuckle, btw.
Lucy Honeycomb? :0)

I really like the name Perdita but Honeysuckle it's kind of ridiculous to be honest XD it's my favorite smelling plant and I always get excited when the honeysuckle blooms in my neighborhood but the name on a person is just kind of absurd. The Honey portion probably isn't as bad but the suckle part sounds provocative, for lack of a better word.
