[norktasticninja]

I'm afraid I really don't like most of the names you've listed, but, I do like:

Lorelei
Willemina
Vivienne

How about Araminta? Aurora? Coco? Saskia? Astrid?

[Notasecretanymore]

What about Lelaina - Lainey for short.

[tummytickler]

Love Gwendolen - on our list.
Is Willemina a name - I thought it was Wilhelmina! If that is right i like it with nn Mina.
Don't like Vesper - but I do like the similar Hesper.
Rosamund is also lovely!
The rest are not really my thing

[PfftTheMagicDragon]

Is that a character list from Battlestar Galactica?

[Ellica]

how funny i know a of twins willow and phoenix!
i like Sapphira and Xylia out of your list

[norktasticninja]

AFAIK Willemina is an accepted variant of Wilhelmina. I knew one who shortened it to Willa.

[FimboFortunaFeet]

From the list Anastasia and Vivienne

[bellissima]

Atalia. Can't you fly to Rome with them?

Er, have difficulty with the list. Alexandrie is surely a boy's name (okay with an extra i). Vesper - okay saw her with lovely Daniel but really doesn't sound like a name. Others eg Amaranda, Cassiela just sound like you've added an extra syllable to a name to make it more 'exotique'.

I'd stick with the Irish ones.

[Pingpong]

From that list I like Seren

[trainers]

You have are so creative, it is so special choosing a name.
The names I really like from your list are:-
Willemina
Vivienne
Rosamund

[bluebump]

I don't like Theanora but love Thea. Otherwise like Eden and Cleo.

[LynetteScavo]

Wel, you've made me smile.

Vesper?

Anastasia and Sasha are lovely.

Eden is not a tall unusual around here.

[Hulababy]

4 from the list:

Willow
Seren
Anastasia
Layli - lay-lee

[PenguinProject]

Phoenix, Willow, Vivianne, Vesper and Eden all good - sorry more than four there, but I'm about to rule two out anyway.

However, Vesper and Willow may make people think of the characters of the same names (James Bond and Buffy lesbian...). As someone with an unusually spelt name, I have hated having to spell out my name repeatedly over the years and it's only 4 letters.

[Cadelaide]

"tzofiya"

[Cadelaide]

OK OK, sorry, just googled it and I see it's "proper".

Still spend all her life spelling it out though.

[Cadelaide]

I really like Lorelei and Vivienne [guilty emoticon]

[cece]

Kerensa - but prefer it spelt with a C

Estee - eh-stay - actually prefer Esther

Anastasia - prefer Anna tbh

Aine - awn-ya - quite like this
