Re: Rate these girls' names?
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.
Josephine is a classic, plus she can always be Josie, Jo, Fifi, JoJo.
Juniper is cool. Always had a cold feel to me, like winter.
Keturah seems a bit strange, but its still nice.
Linnéa is okay. My favorite flower names are Calanthe and Gardenia though.
Margot is nice. I always think of Anne Frank's sister.
Marguerite is cool, a nice alternative to Margaret. Very French sounding.
Nora is okay. I know a baby Norah Anne, and that name was always a bit plain.
Olympia is nice. It reminds me of a city name though.
Philomena is eh. It sounds nice, but I hate the Phil part.
Piper sounds spunky and sweet in a modern sense.
Roberta is nice. Bobbi is cute.
Romilly is okay. For some reason I see Rosary, though.
Sybil is nice, but I prefer the name Cybele.
Viola is okay, I think I prefer it to Violet.
Wilhelmina is okay. Its got that strength and feel, sort of royal, maybe because the Queen Wilhelmina.
Zelda is cool. I don't normally like Z names, but this one I do.
