[Opinions] Re: Mae Marigold and Maeve Marigold
in reply to a message by BeccyLeader2
I think Mae Marigold is unfortunate if your intention isn't for Mae to sound like a descriptor (a marigold that blooms in May). If you want it to sound like a phrase, then it works. Mae is ok, but I've mostly heard it in double names, so by itself it can seem plain.
I prefer Maeve Marigold. I usually like Maeve; sometimes it can feel a bit heavy, but it seems more interesting to me than Mae in sound and history. I don't mind the alliteration but probably wouldn't repeat it with siblings.
Siblings, uh...
Lucinda Fern
Rowena Cherry
Sigrid Amaryllis
Trista Rosalba
Iris Georgianne
Hera Juniper
Adele Gardenia
Daisy Fidelma
Hope
Laurel
Harris
Robin Timothy
Isaac Trevelyan
Basil
Oliver
Walter
I'm struggling to think of names atm.
