Ophira Sapphire

Hi

Thoughts on a girl called Ophira Sapphire. Ophira is pronounced o-feer-a.

I have a Freya already

Lovely names but I think they are to many fs together. Also too similar to your other dd.

delilabell · 11/03/2021 19:08

Beautiful x

willibald · 11/03/2021 19:08

Too close to Freya

EssentialHummus · 11/03/2021 19:09

Ophira and Freya are too similar for me.

partyatthepalace · 11/03/2021 19:10

Too many Fs between both girls

Freya is a lovely name

miltonj · 11/03/2021 19:11

Love sapphire! Sounds a bit heavy on the f's with ophira so u would pick one and pair it with something else.

Dozer · 11/03/2021 19:12

Too similar, the two names, and to Freya.

Dislike both names.

RJnomore1 · 11/03/2021 19:12

Sounds like gin

WombatWomb · 11/03/2021 19:12

Ophira is ok.

Sapphire is terrible.

They don't go together.

MazekeenSmith · 11/03/2021 19:14

Cringe, sorry
Ophira is fussy and too similar to Freya and sapphire is awful

StopGo · 11/03/2021 19:15

Sounds like the child would be named after two brands of gin.

FawnDrench · 11/03/2021 19:15

Too effie IMO.
Sounds like someone trying to say "Ophelia" with a mouth full of gob-stoppers.

Bimblybomeyelash · 11/03/2021 19:16

Too much everything

SherlocksDeerstalker · 11/03/2021 19:16

Definitely a gin!

AliasGrape · 11/03/2021 19:17

My first thought was gin too, sorry!

ZenNudist · 11/03/2021 19:17

Awful, sorry. Definitely dont use them together. Poor kid, imagine having to spell your name to everyone.

Greenmarmalade · 11/03/2021 19:18

A bit too princessy for my tastes, but nice nonetheless.

I’d probably choose one of those.

Ophira May
Ophira Jane
Ophira Rose
Ophira Clare

HardcoreParkour · 11/03/2021 19:19

Ophira is nice but Sapphire sounds a bit 'American stripper' to me.

GingerAndTheBiscuits · 11/03/2021 19:20

@RJnomore1

Sounds like gin
came to say this too!
niceupthedance · 11/03/2021 19:21

Sounds like a make of car!

PatsyStone39 · 11/03/2021 19:21

Like Ophira a lot but not with Sapphire - it makes it sound like a brand of car.

What about Safira? A mix of both

YellowandGreenToBeSeen · 11/03/2021 19:22

Ophira is beautiful. But ‘I Fear Her’ would be the colloquial pronunciation. I wouldn’t put it with Freya either.

Ideas:

Melissa
Candida
Ophelia (but it’s a name of tragedy)
Magenta
Iris (lovely with Freya)
Melaina (not Melania!)

3CCC · 11/03/2021 19:28

@SherlocksDeerstalker

Definitely a gin!
Another one who thinks this I'm afraid
user1493494961 · 11/03/2021 19:45

Freya is lovely, Ophira is too similar and Sapphire is awful.

CatBiscuits · 11/03/2021 19:51

My first thought was Gin (Ophir- it's lush)

My second thought was there's too many Fs in the name and also with Freya.
