Re: What do you think of these names?
Appoline- much prefer Pauline
Bridget- excellent, timeless, fun!
Carole - awful - dated and drab; the -e adds nothing; Carol is better, but not good; Caroline is great
Dorcas- quite pleasant; prefer Tabitha
Eglantine - awful: where I live it's an invasive alien plant which causes a lot of trouble
Franka - nonsense: what's so wrong with Frances, or Francine?
Giselle - balletic; prefer Gisele
Hyacinth - sounds like someone greeting Cynthia
Iselle - contracted form of Isabelle, perhaps? Far prefer less complicated Isobel or Isabel
