I really love both, and;

Albany
Jessica
Echo

DH likes Emily.

Any thoughts?

Cordy! Lovely

Xanthe is rather lovely, but you do need to be beautiful or at least striking to carry it off. You can't be a frumpy Xanthe.

Emily.

If I had to choose from your list, Xanthe. Cordelia's a villain in Buffy, Albany's the famously dull town that's the real capital of New York state, Echo drowns herself out of vanity.

Emily's a really nice name.

Never echo- please!

Echo makes me Grin

Of your choices, I only really like Xanthe.
