Hi ????

Im looking for some honest feedback on my list of girls names. We live in Glasgow, and find some names sound strange in the Scottish accent!

Our names are:

Daisy
Violet
Juliette
Penny

I like pretty but not too popular... Am also open to suggestions ????

All fine, no obvious problems. Juliet spelling though.

Josephine?

Daisy is the only one I like on your list. It's beautiful.

Not keen on Margaret - don't understand the non-Daisy love on here! Perfectly nice name! I prefer violet though.

I love Daisy and Juliette

Not keen on Violet, Penny is ok.

Adore Violet.

Daisy and Juliette are pretty.

Dislike Penny.

If you like Daisy you could use it as a nickname for Margaret (Daisy translates as Marguerite) which would be perfectly sensible in Scotland and gives her options for other nicknames growing up

Juliet, that spelling though, but is your choice.

I like Daisy and Juliet (that spelling) best. Daisy is pretty popular I think. I only mention it because you said you didn't want popular. Violet is ok, not really a fan of Penny. Not sure what any of these would sound like in a Scottish accent!
