Charles- I've never liked it, personally. I think it sounds stuffy and uptight. Charlie, however, is adorable.
Oscar- The sound doesn't appeal to me. It's too harsh for my tastes.
Frederick- In my area this is pretty old-fashioned, dated still. I tend not to like the -ick sound in names, for the most part, and I dislike Freddy as well. Fred, though, is nice enough.
Henry- I love Henry. It's classic, handsome, and straightforward.
Arthur- I like Arthur. It's got that cute old-man feeling but somehow works on a young boy.Helena- Depends on pronunciation. I like "HELL-en-ah," but not so much "ha-LAY-nah."
Eleanor- I love Eleanor. It's classy and cozy.
Alice- I quite like Alice. I find it light and friendly, and the Alice in Wonderland association is pleasant for me.
Louisa- It's nice, but not one of my favorites.
Beatrice- I like Beatrice, so cute and buttoned-up.
Caroline- I also like Caroline. It's very bright.
