Five and Five - What do you think of my top five baby names for each gender?

What do you think of my top five baby names for each gender? I love two middle names, they are here to stay. I just have far too many people to honor to use only one middle name. With that said, middle names are family names, for the majority.





Do these names flow well? Do they go well as siblings?


Do they show our Irish and Scottish heritage?








Paul Ciarán Matthew


Islay Robert Liam / Isley Robert Liam


Arthur Delaney Russell


Henry Kendall Gene


Klaus Harper Alasdair / Klaus Alasdair Harper





Rose Williamina Joy


Alice Coppélia Norma


Hazel Adélie Miranda


Silvia Caitlín Therese "Silvie"


Éloise Mathilda Pearl|||Paul Ciarán Matthew -- Perfect. I love this.





Islay Robert Liam / Isley Robert Liam -- Can't warm up to Isl- names at all; they sound slimey to me, sorry. Robert Liam is very handsome.





Arthur Delaney Russell -- Arthur sounds kind of geeky to me. I prefer Archer personally. Not bad though, and Delaney Russell is adorable.





Henry Kendall Gene -- The flow is a bit choppy here, and I find Gene really unattractive and strange as a name. Henry isn't a fave of mine but it works. Kendall is great.





Klaus Harper Alasdair / Klaus Alasdair Harper -- Love!





Rose Williamina Joy -- Rose is beautiful. Williamina is a bit much; I'd rather see Willamine / Willamina or just Willa / Mina. Joy is a nice middle.





Alice Coppélia Norma -- Alice is very sweet, and I LOVE Coppélia! I've been thinking of adding it to my own list too, especially since I have a great aunt Élia. Norma looks like "Normal" without it's L to me, and I find it really dated, sorry.





Hazel Adélie Miranda -- A bit long in flow, and I'm not a huge fan of Miranda, but Hazel Adélie is gorgeous.





Silvia Caitlín Therese "Silvie" -- I prefer Silvie on its own. Silvia feels a tad dated to me. Caitlín Therese is lovely.





Éloise Mathilda Pearl -- I've never liked Eloise. It sounds evil/bratty to me for some reason. Louise Mathilda Pearl would be beautiful instead!





Also, I'm just wondering if you'll be using the accents even if you're in an English-speaking country? I just don't see the point in that case, unless it's a tradition of some sort. They do look pretty though, lol. :)|||My thoughts on the names:-


rating 1-bad 10-great


Paul Ciaran Matthew - this is okay I prefer Kieran instead of Ciaran 6


Islay Robert Liam - I like Liam Islay Robert 3


Arthur Delaney Russell - Arthur annoys name 1


Henry Kendall Gene - love love love 8


Klaus Harper Alasdiar /Klaus Alasdair Harper - both suck 1


----


Rose Williamina Joy - I love Rose it's my favourtie girls name 9


Alice Coppelia Norma - not too keen 3


Hazel Adelie Miranda - I like Miranda Adelie Hazel 4


Silvia Caitlin Therese - lovely 7


Eloise Mathilda Pearl - I think Eloise Matilda Pearl is better 4


The names do show your Irish and Scottish heritage (you know I have Irish and Scottish heritage too along with Jewish and English) they work as siblings and flow together too.|||Paul Ciarán Matthew-10/10


Islay Robert Liam / Isley Robert Liam-8/10


Arthur Delaney Russell-10/10


Henry Kendall Gene-10/10


Klaus Harper Alasdair / Klaus Alasdair Harper-2/10





Rose Williamina Joy-10/10


Alice Coppélia Norma-2/10


Hazel Adélie Miranda-10/10

To a point they sound Scottish/Irish. However Klaus and Mathilda are German. Adelie looks French as does Williamina, Miranda doesn't sound Scottish or Irish and Matthew is Hebrew.|||I absolutely love Klaus, Paul and Arthur- They are sooo underused!!





I also love how all your names are elegant and timeless.





I REALLY LOVE YOUR BOYS NAMES!!!!!!!|||I like them all|||Paul Ciarán Matthew- beautiful, Paul isnt used enough! Is Ciaran Keiran? I like your way better


Islay Robert Liam / Isley Robert Liam- never heard Islay before its cool but does remind me of Isla


Arthur Delaney Russell- a little too old fashioned for me but still a nice name


Henry Kendall Gene- beautiful! I used to think of Kendall as a girls name but lately i've been corrected, I dont like Gene that much though reminds me of Genes and jeans....etc


Klaus Harper Alasdair / Klaus Alasdair Harper- Klaus is SOOOOO cool especially on a little Christmas baby. And thank you for knowing Harper is a BOYS name.





Rose Williamina Joy- Beautiful!


Alice Coppélia Norma- Coppelia?? never heard of it but its neat.... Love Alice, Norma is a bit too old for me.


Hazel Adélie Miranda- Beautiful!


Silvia Caitlín Therese "Silvie"- Silvie is a cute nickname, never would have thought of it


Éloise Mathilda Pearl- LOVE Eloise its a precious name





You have some great names here, and its funny i usually dont like 2 middle names but these all really flow, can tell you thought about it :) I am German too, what do you think of Liesel or Analiese? I might ask this actually..... :)





Edit: Hah yes getting the boyfriend to agree is the hard part
