Ingrid - huh, unexpected. And old-school name that hasn't made a comeback. I don't dislike it.Juno - AWESOME!! As is Juniper. But Juno is just so fun. Jove - I like it, but I wish it was a nickname. Lucien - Yuck. I really dislike it, but I'm not sure why.

I like Lucien, but I'm not overly fond of the others. Ingrid is decent, but the sound of it doesn't really appeal to me.I prefer Joven over Jove. Jove makes me think of the exclamation "By Jove!"

Ingrid - love it, gorgeous, strong and pretty
Juno - pretty, and I love a name with a serious history behind it, but I'm not sure how usable it isJove - not a fan, it just makes me think "by jove!"
Lucien - I prefer the Lucian spelling, but either way it's a great sounding name. I do prefer Lucius, but Lucien is great, too.

I love Lucien, can tolerate Juno and Ingrid (even though it makes me think of grids) and dislike Jove.

I like Juno, and I would prefer Lucian over Lucien. Jove I don't like, and Ingrid is dull and boring imo.

I LOVE Ingrid! If I had to rename myself for some reason, Ingrid would be the name I'd pick. I think it's strong, feminine, interesting, and unusual but very accessible. Juno - Eh. I can take or leave it. I liked it more pre-stupid movie. Now, it's such a strong association. I prefer June and Junia.Jove - "By Jove!" No.Lucien - Depends on the pronunciation. I think "loosh" is...well, gross, to be honest. It's an icky sound, and I dislike Lucien/Lucian, Lucius, Lucia, and other Luc- names when it shows up in the pronunciation. Pronounce Lucien loo-syen or loo-see-en, and I'm on board. I like it.

Ingrid paints a very specific picture in my mind of a tall, pale, blonde girl with twin braids.Juno reminds me of a bunch of different things. I like this name, but I don't know if I would use it.Jove I definitely wouldn't use because my associations are too strong. Maybe I'd use it as a middle name.Lucien is a bit more usable. This is my favorite of the lot.
