Thoughts please.

Both lovely names, but Thea sounds sort of lost next to Elizabeth, the two names sound as though they run into one another. If it were me I’d pick a middle name beginning with a consonant for Thea as a first name.

I think they work really well
99.9 % of the time she'll just be Thea anyway so I'd just focus on a middle name you like rather than one which flows perfectly
That said I think Elizabeth does flow well

Elizabeth is good.
but thea does not work. it gets lost. is not defined enough. not recognisable enough, esp for a first name, endless queries, re spelling, sorry what was your name, how do you spell it etc, don't impose a lifetime of that on your child.

I don't like Thea at all, and the THs make it sound a bit lithpy.

Thea is not my style, but they sound nice and work well together. I think there is a slight issue sometimes with first names ending in a vowel if the middle name begins with the same vowel.

Surely Thea is an extremely well known first name?
