I like Nella and Dexter. Priscilla is okay, but most of these aren't my cup of tea.

The Dalmatian in 101 Dalmatians, Perdita Weeks, and a friend of mine all pronounce it pur-DEE-ta. I think it's pretty. I've never heard the other way. I don't like PUR-di-ta.I like Nerys, Rosa, Cornelius, Terence, Glen, Wystan, and Colin.

Perdita - Reminds me of 101 Dalmatians.
Nerys - Dislike.
Bonnie - Like it, but not enough to use it.
Pauline - Same as Bonnie.
Annick - Sounds too masculine to me. Prefer Annika.
Erna - Don't hate it, but don't like it.
Nuria - Sounds like a stomach-related illness.
Priscilla - Same as Bonnie and Pauline. I have used this as the name of the protagonist's mother in a book series I plan to write.
Honey - Neutral.
Nella - Prefer Nellie more.
Lilias - Neutral.
Rosa - Like.Cornelius - My mom's late uncle (grandma's brother) had this name; he went by Neil. If I have a son, I plan to name him Cornelius, but use Corey as a nickname.
Roy - Like.
Dexter - Like, but not enough to use. Makes me think of "Dexter's Laboratory".
Terence - Like, but not enough to use.
Joseph - Neutral.
Glen - Like.
Keir - Dislike.
Rudy - Neutral.
Wystan - Dislike.
Colin - Like, but not enough to use. I had a kid in my third grade class named Colin, but he spelled it with 2 Ls (Collin). He was also a twin.
Jerome - Neutral.
