When name do you like best? Which least? For a child growing up in the UK (London to be precise).

Etta, Effie, Anya, Nina, Iona, Eva, Ella

[lifechangesforeverinjuly]

Effie and Etta are my favourites
Eva is my least favourite - it's really common (as in popular!) where I am, along with Eve and Evie

[ASDismynormality]

Really don’t like Nina at all.
Love Anya.

[NotSoSprightly]

I love them all. I love Ettie too - cross between Effie and Etta.

[FloatyFlo]

You can't have Anya That's my of my dd's names.

I love Nina! Not many Ninas around!

[iklboo]

I love Effie

[MammieBear]

Looked at them all and I think Anya and Iona look the best written down, lovely names also. which sound best with your surname? Say them out loud to yourself.

[Threeandabit]

Nina

[NannyR]

Nina - lovely name!

[happytobemrsg]

I don't like Nina. I love Effie

[Osquito]

Etta and Iona

[Threeandabit]

I should have said, I like Nina best.
I like Effie least.

Etta is nice but doesn't seem to go with a lot of surnames. For example Etta Ball sounds like you're saying ate a ball, albeit grammatical incorrectly.

I would also suggest Elfin.

I like Ella from your list too.

[Threeandabit]

• Grammatically
  
  How about Greta?

[anonteacher1]

Really dislike Effie

[SpottyBrolly]

I like Etta, Anya, Nina and Iona

I'm really not keen on Effie it feels very meh and fluff.

[ThroughThickAndThin01]

Favourite Iona.

All the others are ok.

[17caterpillars1mouse]

Effie or Iona

[Awwlookatmybabyspider]

Nina and Eva

[buzzybuzzbuzz]

Effie and Ella.

But I have an Ella and it is very popular (which I didn't realise!)

[joystir59]

One of the bravest and most inspiring women I ever met was called Etta, She was a social worker and feminist and strove hard all her life to overcome crippling illness and continued to be active, loving and working right to the end of her life.

[Halebeke425]

Love the musical association especially Etta, Effie and Nina, I assume that's what you were going for with those names? Although Eva and Ella are fairly common they are all lovely names, what has the most significance and flows best for you?

[DiegoMadonna]

I don't like Ella. Too many el names these days.

I love Etta.

[SeeKnievelHitThe17thBus]

Nina is my favourite. Effie least, it's just a bit blah and feeble.

[AnyaMoondial]

Nina is my favourite but also really like Anya. Effie is my least favourite.

[Meemzinha]

Anya and Iona are my favourites! I'm in the UK too... I think don't think they're overly popular either!

[Afreshcuppateaplease]

Love Etta. Ds3 could have been Etta had he been a girl!
