Sibset help!! Please opinions needed old Hollywood

[seraphine-rose]

Hello everyone, in a sibset it's very important that the names are cohesive and since I am a complete old holy wood romantic these names mean a lot to me but I need opinions on whether they work and also your opinion on the names
Sisters

Scarlett Marilyn Blair ( Scarlett for GWTW, Marilyn Monroe, Blair Waldorf)
Vivienne Katharine Audrey (Vivien Leigh and Vivian Vance, Katharine Hepburn, Audrey Hepburn)
Lucille Elizabeth Jane (Lucille ball, Elizabeth Taylor, Jane Russell)

And then son

Walter Grant

[mischa]

1 Lucille Elizabeth Jane - I don't get the Hollywood connection with this combo and that's a good thing (I think subtle themes are best rather than one that is obvious and in your face). These three names flow will together with the 2-4-1 syllable count.

2 Vivienne Katharine Audrey - all of these are fine names but I do find it very obviously Hollywood. I also think that the mn's should be switched to Vivienne Audrey Katherine (Vivienne Katherine back-to-back is too rhymey)

3 Scarlett Marilyn Blair - Blair Waldorf means nothing to me.This is the poorest combo (too heavy on the l's and "ar" sounds).

BTW - Walter Grant is a fine combo (Walter Pigeon/Matthau and the incomparable Cary Grant)

Not getting the Old Hollywood connection myself. It sounds life famous people but when I think Old Hollywood I don't thing TV or character names I more think names from the Silver Screen. Twenties through 50s.

Don't get me wrong - I love the idea - really - it's cool and different. But I'd do a bit more research and stick with one type of name not characters, TV stars mixed with movie stars.

Here are some really old Hollywood names that you might want to think about. I left out names such as Jean and other common names that would not ordinarily be associated with Hollywood's Hey Day.

Deana (Durban)
Claudette (Colbert)
Greer (Garson)
Veronica (Lake)
Audrey (Hepburn)
Ingrid (Bergman)
Fay - there were so many Fays.
June - same
Genvieve (Tobin)
Larraine (Day)

Boys

Burgess (Meridith)
Ward - several
Spencer (Tracy)
Tyrone (Power)
Cliff (Robertson)
Clark (Gable)
Lloyd a few
Ian
Barton
Conrad'


You can also play around with last names as first with the ones I've given, especially for boys.

Some last names - Harlow and Arden.

A dark Hollywood name Dahlia.

Some little known actresses Nova, and Danielle Darrieux.

Mae and Sylvia are very Silver Screen.

Let me know what you think.

You guys don't think Audrey Hepburn, Katharine Hepburn, Vivien Liegh, Jane Russell, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe are classic hollywood actresses? That's surprising to me, but thank you for the suggestions, what about Rita? For Rita Hayworth

Scarlett Marilyn Blair - I don't like the name Scarlett. It doesn't have the Old Hollywood vibe it once did for me. Now its "trendy". I love Marilyn and Blair (love Blair Waldorf ) but Blair really isn't Old Hollywood she just likes her Audrey Hepburn
Vivienne Katharine Audrey - Love Vivienne, Katherine and Audrey but this combo just doesn't flow well to me mostly because Vivienne and Katherine both end in "n". How about Vivienne Audrey Taylor (Vivien Leigh, Audrey Hepburn & Elizabeth Taylor ?)
Lucille Elizabeth Jane - This one really doesn't have an Old Hollywood vibe for me either. But it sounds like a nice, sold classic name and I love it! Especially Lucille with the nn Lucy!
Walter Grant is great!

Love, Love, Love Rita! But its my grandmother's name so I'm biased

What about...
Eva Marie Garland ( As in Eva Marie Saint and Judy Garland)
Rita Josephine Louise or Rita Audrey Elizabeth (As in Rita Hayworth, Josephine Baker, and Louise Brooks) Josephine has a super old Hollywood vibe to me for some reason
Audrey Greta Elizabeth or Audrey Rita Elizabeth( Greta as in Greta Garbo)
Vivienne Scarlett Katherine
Clara Lucille Monroe (Clara as in Clara Bow and Monroe as in Marilyn)
Audrey Marilyn Lucille
Greta Vivienne Monroe or Greta Audrey Monroe

Other names....
Natalie (As in Natalie Wood)
Mae (as in Mae West)
Loren (As in Sophia Loren)
Lana (as in Lana Turner)
Olivia (As in Olivia de Hallivand)
Greer (As in Greer Garson)
Grace (As in Grace Kelly)
Ginger (As in Ginger Rogers)

These are for girls:
Billie (Billie Holiday)
Carey (grant -even though is male)
Harlow
Loie (Loie Fuller)
Betty (Davis)
Ingrid (Bergman)
Greta (Garbo)

I like some of yours, these are just further suggestions. I say go with whomever is your favorite actress.

For a boy, Gregory, as in Peck. So handsome.

I totally got the old hollywood connection. I think these are great names that are usable while still having a connection.

I'm not a big fan of 3 name combos, just so you know.

Scarlett Marilyn Blair - I think Scarlett Blair is lovely
Vivienne Katharine Audrey - I prefer the Vivian spellings. I think Audrey Katherine would be better, but Vivian Katharine is pretty as well.
Lucille Elizabeth Jane - Lucy Jane is super lovely!
