Help[Opinions] Re: New combos!
in reply to a message by Wish Fish
Lev Aleksandr - Nice, handsome. Exotic without being too "out there". Sounds heroic.
Sophia Willow - This is a nice idea, and it's pretty, but I think Sophie Willow, or Sofia Willow, would be more harmonious. Sophia is so stiffly regal and Byzantine to me, and Willow makes me think of English country gardens and delicate blue-patterned china, and those two don't really mesh. Both Sophie and Sofia are light and airy, on the same wavelength as Willow.
Oana Laura - Oana Laura seems a bit sing-song and the "oao-au" vowels sort of slur together. It doesn't let either name really stand out.
Donalda Rochelle - Aw. Donalda is so lurchingly clumsy and lumpy, it almost makes me love it. It's like a sad, floppy-eared puppy who trips over its own too-big paws. Donalda needs something a little bit lighter than Rochelle, I think. They are both heavy names.
Archie Kirkland - Kirkland is a brand name of grocery store foods to me, so this looks jarring, like "Archie Pepsi" or something. Archie Kirk would be snazzy.
Kirk Cameron - as others have pointed out this is the name of a wacky right-wing evangelist who believes public schools turn children into Marxist Satanic strippers. The name works but it's taken.
Dahlia Harriet - really lovely, an unexpected and fresh paring.
Ella Belle - This looks like a joke combo. Two such similar sounds need to be given room to breathe, with more happening between them. Something like Eleanora Isabelle, Elizabeth Belle, Adela Annabelle, Ariella Christabel, etc.

Oana Laura is actually a voice actresses who does Romanian dubs.
Kirk Cameron was not saying Public School turns kids into Marxist Strippers. What he was saying is that if parents let the government teach their kids, they shouldn't be surprised if they believe what the government says. He was saying Parents are the ones to teach kids.

Kirk Cameron did literally say that though.
Celebrities have said worse.
