Girls names list thoughts?

[Beccabooboo]

I am expecting my second girl and struggling with names
I have a Scarlett who also has 2 other Scarletts in her class. Looking to avoid this but not too out there either
This is what I have so far ;

Gretel
Winnie
Edie
Jemima
Hettie

Thoughts?

[Ikeameatballs]

I like Edie and Jemima.

Really dislike Gretel

[Golfhotelromeofoxtrot]

Like Winnie!

How about Claudia/Enid/Heidi/Daphne?

[Sophronia]

I like Jemima, and Gretel is ok, although I prefer Greta. Winnie, Edie and Hettie I prefer short for Winifred, Edith and Henrietta.

[LovelyMummyNo1]

I like Jemima! Not sure about Gretel...

[fellowship33]

There's a few Edies in dd's school so I might avoid that. Love Hettie - short for Harriet? Winnie is awful, as is Gretel.

[MitzyLeFrouf]

The one in the middle, Edie.

Gretel and Winnie are seriously bad.

[manicinsomniac]

I love Jemima

Quite like Edie (though I'd christen Edith) and Gretel

Don't like Winnie or Hettie at all.

[reuset]

Good list.

Jemima wins for me. Quite a timeless name.

Also like Hettie if short for Henrietta or Esther

[RiverTam]

Edit best. Winnie awful. Rest OK.

[reuset]

Gretel is nice but feels like a little girl name.

[Beccabooboo]

Thanks guys. I think I am more confused than ever. My haves were Gretel and Winnie but I realise these are are seriously marmite! Only know if one Edie around here but am guessing will gain more popularity. Think I am leaning towards Jemima.

[Beccabooboo]

Yes rueset, I think of the cute little Gretel in the sound of music! Maybe not so much when she is older.

Love Gretel such a beautiful name

[ashesandfire]

Edie or Jemima

[florascotia]

I really like Jemima.

Gretel was traditionally a diminutive of Grete, which was a short form of Margaret. As Reuset says, it's traditionally cute and little girly - rather like Rosie compared with the plainer, more adult, Rose.

I know of more than one little Edie. For that, and for Winnie and Hettie, I prefer full names, rather than rather babyish short forms.

[2Blessed0301]

Winnie. what about Hattie?

[PallasCat]

Totally agree with Sophronia - some really lovely names but I would suggest the long forms for bc, and short forms for known names.

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Love Edie.

[Kitsmummy]

Love edie, Jemima and poss hettie

Hate hate hate Winnie

Gretel is pretty

How about romilly or ottilie?

[Beccabooboo]

leaning towards Jemima Alice but still have a soft spot for Gretel ...
A

[mrspremise]

DS has a friend called Winnie, I love her name! I think Hattie is more traditional as a nn for Harriet, but Hettie is fab too. Great choices, OP!

[00100001]

Edie :)

[Cric]

Love Winnie!!!

[Yellowbird01]

Jemima alice is good

[CakeRattleandRoll]

I like Hettie as a nn for Hester or Henrietta.
