Inspired by a recent post about making up a name from combining two names, I looked on a baby name website and came across these American inventions:

Datherine - combination of David and Catherine
Zanderleigh - combination of Zander and Leigh
Abbatha - combination of Abbey and Tabatha

this might have been done before, but has anyone got other examples of outrageous or successful combination names?

My neice is a name smoosh

She is Sarlinea which is a combo of Sarah and Pauline

Elixyvett - Modern combination name from Alexandra and Yvette.
Brandilyn ... Combination of Brandy and Lynn
Jenessa Combination of Jennifer and Vanessa

Elizyvett is wild! I just found Jevette - Jean + Yvette

Not sure why these names are so fascinating. I think I prefer them to the inventive spelling ones. Though either way, it would be incredibly boring to have to spell them out and explain the origin constantly.

Carleigh for Carl and Leigh kind of works if it had to...

How about Labby for a girl? That's what my parents called me and my sister (accidentally) when getting mixed up who they were talking about.

Too close to Labia. And reminds me of that idiot on the radio..

Kirsten

If i was to do a name smoosh for DH and I we would get the very outrageous and offensive name of..






Mary


little lion-Labby is delightful

I like Benathon or Jonjamin (Benjamin and Jonathon)

Not really.

Tylan - a cross between Tyler and Dylan.

Thanks Ms Click - I'm glad you got the humour. My example was an unintended name smoosh/slip of the tongue. Not all of those gems come from hard thought and deliberation.
