Beatrice - same as Araminta
Camille - pretty
Cecily - pretty, but not my favorite name

Keturah - not my favorite, but it’s not too bad

Arabella - I like this one a lot, mostly because it's also the name of an Arctic Monkeys song.
Araminta - Strange, but it's alright.
Beatrice - Dated and boring.
Camille - Okay. Personally not a big fan.
Cecily - Cute, I guess.
Edith - Also dated and boring.
Estella - I like Estelle more, but it's a pretty name.
Frances - Never liked this name much. But to each their own.
Frida - Eh. Just eh.
Guinevere - Very interesting. I like it.
Hebe - Also interesting, but I don't know about it.
Helena - Looooove this name. Very pretty and refined.
Ianthe - Once again, interesting, but I don't really like it that much.
Isadora - Very refined and fancy-sounding, but it's nothing more than okay in my own opinion.
Jamesina - I don't like the James part.
Josephine - Boring.
Juniper - I don't like it that much.
Keturah - Interesting, and I kinda like it.
Linnéa - Pretty.
Margot - I prefer it without the "t", but it's okay.
Marguerite - I like this spelling more than just Margaret, but it's nothing special to me.
Nora - Just kinda blah to me.
Olympia - Beautiful.
Philomena - Not quite as beautiful, but it's nice, too.
Piper - Spunky-sounding. I like it.
Roberta - Not a fan, not sure why.
Romilly - Clumpy-sounding, but it's not awful.
Sybil - Pretty dated, but I make an exception to this name because I like it so darn much.
Viola - It's pretty, but I like Violet more.
Wilhelmina - I'd prefer a different spelling, but it's nice.
Zelda - It's cool-sounding. Personally wouldn't use it.

Arabella is pretty enough. Its much better then Isabella or even Annabel. I don't like any of the nicknames though, and prefer Arr-Uh-Bella to Air-Uh-Bella.
Araminta is pretty. I love the mint part a lot. I am not the biggest of the Arr-ah sound though.
Beatrice sounds classy and princessy, youthful and classic, and upperclass. I love it.
Camille is cute. I like Milla as a nickname.
Cecily is cute, but I prefer Cecilia, it reminds me to much of the country even if the spellings are not the same.
Edith is cute, and I also like Edie. It sounds a bit old, but reminds me of fire and strength.
Estella is okay, but I prefer Estelle.
Frances is so nice, it sounds oldish, but in a timeless rather than dated since like Susan or Mary.
Frida is really cool as a name. I want to hear it sometime, but it can be hard to pull off.
Guinevere is nice. I like it because my mom is a Jennifer.
Hebe is cute. I prefer Phoebe though.
Helena sounds nice. I always prefered it to Elena or Helen. Elena is nice, but mainly hispanic in the US.
Ianthe sounds sort of cool. It reminds me of Ian and Xanthe.
Isadora is okay. I prefer that spelling to Isidora for some reason.
Jamesina sounds a bit frumpy and overly girly. Sort of lacey.

I definetly prefer Marguerite over Margaret any day!

Never been a fan of names ending with -ina, so Jamesina, Philomena, Wilhelmina are not my cup of tea.
