Charlotte: I used to really like this but its lost a bit of its luster. I do really love the nn Lottie, though.
Olivia: Never been a fan, which makes me feel sad because my new elementary-aged step niece is named this and I have to pretend to like it. Maybe it will grow on me.
Sophia: Love. Too bad its so popular.
Savannah: I don't really like this for my own kid. Just as I wouldn't name my kid Tundra or Swamp.
Lara: Eh, neutral.
Violet: I like this.
Stella: Lovely.
Eve: Ditto
Zoe: Don't like, never have. Reminds me of the Sesame St character.
Emma: Love, too bad its so popular.
Matilda: I like this. Its not as popular over here in the US.
Isla: Sweet.
Harper: You should see my face. I just envision a nagging woman...a harper.

Lily: Too popular and I don't like the flower. I prefer the vintage appeal of Lillie.
Holly: I've never liked this and I think its dated.
Paige: Ew.
Eloise: Cute.
Annabelle: Prefer Anabel. Everyone thinks of cows, though.
Georgia: Okay, but would never use.
Phoebe: Okay but forever tied to Bouffet.
Summer: Ew.
Jasmine: Pretty. I think its associated with the Aladdin character though and so many little girls, particularly black and hispanic, were given this name after the movie came out. So, while I could like it on a newborn I don't like it on my peers.

Poppy: I want to like this and I want to only envision pretty flowers but I also envision popping pimples.

Felix: the cat...forever.
Darcy: On a boy, like, on a girl, despise.
Jesse: Like
Hugo: Never been a fan but could see it growing on me, like Hugh.
Anthony: Don't like. I feel like every Anthony I have met is a bratty kid or rude adult.
Lachlan: Love
Beau: On a southern gentleman, lovely. On anyone else, stupid.
Logan: Okay.
Marcus: Ick
Flynn: I want to like this but then I can't because I envision a male version of a bimbo.
