Is "Icesis" pronounced like the Egyptian goddess, Isis (EYE-sis)? I read it as eye-CEE-sis first and then figured maybe you were changing the spelling of Isis. Also, how do you pronounce "Capris?" I was thinking the S was silent (ca-PREE) but then wondered if you wanted it pronounced (ca-PREES / "caprice") - I assume it's not an S sounding like a Z, as in "it was a little cool today so I wore capris instead of shorts").

Also, is Caraballo the last name or middle name?

I probably like Sage best, followed by Capris if you spell it Caprice (easier to figure out how to pronounce it). Although it's funny, those words almost have opposite meanings. According to Merriam-Webster online:

Sage = wise, prudent, having good judgement.
Caprice = willful, impulsive, unpredictable.

The hyphenated first names are a little confusing, especially since both names are so unusual. I feel like people will be squinting at this girl's school records and job applications if you hyphenate. Just my opinion!

Good luck, HTH

Honestly, none of the names on your list are my style, though I do know a guy whose oldest little girl is Trinity. Isis would be much better spelled correctly. Icesis is just odd and confusing...it looks like eye-SEES-is.

Caprice would be lovely spelled this way, as well. Capris just brings to mind short pants and the Isle of Capri Casino. LOL.

I voted for Sage, but I just saw that you might change the spelling to Isis - if you do that then that would probably get my vote...
Caprise is just not my style - sorry.
You seem like you like really unique names - to me Trinity is extremely trendy right now and she may end up with another Trinity or 2 in her life...that doesn't seem the vibe you are giving with your name suggestions.

A couple other names that might fit your style:
Kinnia (rhymes with the flower Zinnia) - it is an irish saint
Trevi - a wishing fountain in paris
Calliope
Breckin
Finna
Keelia
Keena
Kella
Roisin (ro-sheen)
Tieve

Good Luck! and HTH

hey thanx so much for your reply. i added scarlett dahlia and portia to my list of names. Me and my husband agreed on Isis but he says I can name the girl whatever I want as long as he names the boy. Well he suggested we spell it Icesis but there is just way too confusion I see now. So im thinking of going with Isis Caprice Caraballo. For a boy im forced to name him after the father Jonathan (LJ) :/...anyways I saved you as a friend.
