Too many "i" s?

[ThisWarmOliveQuail]

Is Amari Iris too i heavy?

Yes

Yes.

No I don’t think it is. It’s a nice name. And if its a middle name it won’t be used very often at all most people don’t talk about middle names.

Amari makes me think of Calamari

Lovely name. Amarie Iris avoids the double i

It's vowel heavy. It doesn't go because, despite the i's at the end of Amari and the start of Iris representing different sounds, they run into each other when said aloud. This happens with most name combinations ending and starting in a vowel, whatever vowels they are.

Day to day, I'm sure she'll just be Amari so it's not a major issue. It would put me off though as, personally, I like the full name to flow. It's more important her first name flows with her surname though, so as long as they go together that's the main thing.

The only Amari I know of is a boy though.

I think a lot would assume Amarie is pronounced Ah-marie. Autocorrect automatically changed Amarie to Marie.

I know a (male) Amari and he is lovingly known as ‘Amari Calamari’!

I like the name but it’s very much a boys name to me, I don’t like it on a girl at all. Iris is beautiful though.

It's fine, flows well. How often would you use the full name? Hence vowel heavy isn't an issue.

It’s fine, few people will even know what her middle name is. Plus Amari ends in an “ee” sound and Iris starts with an “eye” sound so although the letters are the same, the sounds are very different.

I think it flows well enough for a first / middle name combo - they won’t be said aloud much together so it’s fine.

I agree with this. I think Amarie (Ama-ree) is much nice than Amari which sounds like calamari.

I'd lose the Amari and just stick with Iris personally.

Yes that's too much for me.

I don't think it's too many Is. The I in Amari is a long E sound.

Yes if you plan to use them both as her first name, fine if Iris will just be her middle name.

Yes.

Iris Marie and Iris Amari are much easier to say and hear.
Do you like Arrietta?

Are we talking double first name where both names will be used most of the time, or first name to be used everyday and a much less used middle name? I don't think it roles off the tongue nicely at all. However, they are both really pretty names in their own right, so if actually she will be a child who will most be known as Amari and only very occasionally will she be "Amari Iris" it will be fine.
