Unless you have an Italian surname I think Francesca is going to sound weird.

I really like Emily and Chloe but Francesca is too frilly for me.

Chloe is the only one I like from those sorry. They have quite a 90s vibe so maybe

Emma
Lucy
Sophie/Sophia
Alice

I actually like all of them. If I had to order them (finding it quite difficult actually)

Francesca - NN Chesca not Frankie
Chloe
Emily - I think I prefer Emily as a middle name because it is just so popular and has been for a long time now

I love Francesca and all the possible nicknames, apart from maybe Fran.
I strongly dislike Chloe, not sure why really, can a name be annoying?
Emily is nice enough, Emmeline is a bit more interesting to me.
Suggestions Rafaela/Raffaella or Isabel/Isabella.

Francesca is my favourite, a lovely, little used name.

Emily is pretty, but a lot of very similar names are so popular just now that it doesn’t have that ‘stand out’ quality to me.

WakeUpLockie · 24/11/2021 11:44

All quite 90s so

Gabriella
Alyssa
Ellie
Lucy
Louisa
Zoe

Also like Cleo but it's having a moment so in 20 years might be 'very 20s'.
