Opinions on a girls' name list

So we've sort of got a shortlist, some I'm not 100% sure about, so opinions would be welcome!

Edith
Audrey
Coralie
Sadie

Ideally, I'd like a name that's a bit more unusual, but I think most of the above will be fairly common - they are the only names we can agree on!

Any suggestions of similar names also welcome!

Ok, so I know know that the meaning of the name Sadie is Princess in American, and a whole lot better than naming your child Princess. Grin

I think Cora is prettier than Coralie

how about Iris?

Secondme · 31/05/2013 14:05

Maybe something like Carrie if you're going down that path. I like Sadie, sounds American to me. Edith and Audrey are my Great Aunts names, but I prefer Edith.

Of that list I love Edith - really elegant. I wouldn't like Coralie myself.

Elsie
Helena

Sadie is also nice

I really like Edith and with the Edie shortening it hits the Ellie/Evie trend without actually being as common although there are a few around

Coralie feels too fancy to me. What is wrong with plain Coral?

Sadie is fine.

I am not keen on Audrey but I'd say it is the least common.

I like Sadie best out of that list, definitely not Edith.

BabyStone · 31/05/2013 13:47

I don't really like any of them tbh.
Prefer Coral to Coralie
I don't think any of them are fairly common either, only ever knew 1 Sadie, Audrey makes me think of Coranation Street, sorry.

Sadie.
At a push, no pun intended, Coralie.
Dislike Audrey and Edith.
