Help[Opinions] Napoleon
More specifically, Napoleon Stanisław Adam Feliks Zygmunt (surname Krasiński, known as Zygmunt) was a Polish Romantic writer.
He had four children - I can only find the first names (Władysław, Zygmunt, Elżbieta) of three, but a daughter was named Graciosa Maria Beatrix (!)
Feel free to comment on all the names (I'd appreciate it very much!), but my chief interest is in Napoleon. So, without much ado:
• What do you think of Napoleon as a name?
• Can you think of any nicknames other than Leo or Leon?
• What are some other outrageous/unusual ways to Leo you can think of? Galileo comes to mind for me.
• Any middle name combos you can think of?
• What would you name a brother and a sister to Napoleon?
Napoleon isn't surprising on a 19th century Polish nobleman - Napoleon was very well regarded for establishing a semblance of a Polish state, and is mentioned in the Polish national anthem.
I find it, as a name, ridiculous and stuffy - but in a fun way, that works on a larger than life character. Or a teddy bear. Very theatrical, very in your face. Given by a parent who enjoyed reading every volume of Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.
My combos:
Napoleon Achilles
Napoleon Aleksy
Napoleon Brontë
Napoleon Charles
Napoleon Conrad
Napoleon Hercules
Napoleon Ignacy
Napoleon Jonas
Napoleon Konrad
Napoleon Montague
Napoleon Oliver
Napoleon Pericles
Napoleon Ptolemy
Napoleon Shelley
Napoleon Wolfgang
Napoleon Wolfram
My sibset:
Napoleon, Hannibal, and Theodora. Theodora gets off easy haha
