Mary - like
Elizabeth - OK
Doris - yes, why not?
Sybella - sound like a mixture of names, how about Sybil or Arabella?
Briseis - haven't heard of this name, how is it pronounced?
Hera - not so keen

Vix - Vicks vapours
Jude - OK, a bit feminine though (nickname for Judith)
Edward - very nice, classic name

Mary - quite nice
Elizabeth - classic favourite, I like it
Doris - sounds like a great-aunt's name
Sybella - sounds like a disease
Briseis - never heard of it. Will forever be asked how its pronounced/spelled
Hera - pretentious

Vix - not a name. Don't like it
Jude - isn't that a girl's name!
Edward - classic favourite
