Estella -- A little on the frilly side, but the "Great Expectations" connection gives is an additional boost in my mind.
Phoebe -- I used to not like it. It reminded me of a buzzing bee. But it combines so well with other names that I began to come around. I like it now. But I don't love it.
Phyllis -- I wish I could like
Phyllis, if for no other reason than she is likely to be a wall-flower for most people. But
Phyllis makes me think of a filly (if I'm spelling that correctly), a young female horse. I love other "phil" names like
Phyllida,
Philomena,
Philippa.
