No one's mentioned Demelza the character from Poldark?
It's Cornish.

It's also the name of a children's hospice.

Like:

Celeste - pretty, unusual
Emily - classic
Evelyn - quite nice though Eve/Evie/Ava names are very popular
Hannah - classic
Louise - underused classic
Megan - simple, pretty
Penelope - OK, Penny a nice nickname
Phoebe - OK
Rachel - OK, perhaps a little dull
Sylvia - quite like

Dislike:

Alice - dull
Astrid - harsh, reminds me of "get rid"
Beatrice - a bit self-important
Bronwen - OK, prefer Anwen
Demelza - don't like the sound
Hazel - not keen
Hester - a bit over the top. Prefer Esther or Estella
Lorna - prefer Laura or Louisa
Simone - a boys name with an e

Alice - classic, nice, quite popular at the moment
Astrid - sounds a bit like asteroid, not keen
Beatrice - nice, classic
Bronwen - bleuh
Celeste - not keen, no reason why
Demelza - Demelza sounds like the name of a crazy, (probably Irish) Catholic nun. Dreadful.
Emily - classic, nice, dull
Evelyn - lovely
Hannah - fine
Hazel - fine
Hester - this has to be one of the ugliest names I've ever heard. I would feel incredibly sorry for any child called Hester. I can't get past the fact that it rhymes with "molester"
Lorna - very dull and old fashioned
Louise - as per Lorna
Megan - nice
Penelope - bit of a mouthful. Also quite trendy at the moment
Phoebe - dislike, again not sure why, just the way it sounds doesn't appeal to me
Rachel - fine, quite 80s/90s
Simone - again it sounds a bit dated now. I'd would imagine a Simone to be in her 30s or 40s
Sylvia - not keen, too old lady-ish for me, trendy now, I know a few under 2

Alice, Evelyn and Megan are the best from your list.
