Phoebe. Matilda is OK, but a bit overdone at the moment.

Matilda. Don't like Phoebe at all and getting completely bored of it popping up all over the place!

Much prefer Matilda. It's a strong, classic name with lots of options for nicknames.
Phoebe has a whiney sound to it.

Neither. Matilda is nice it I hate all the nns for it. And Phoebe is awful. Sorry!

Matilda. I love it and would shorten to Mattie.

Phoebe is great.

Not so keen on Matilda as it's a mouthful as a full name, but Tilly and Mattie aren't my bag.
