Rose

DH likes Charlotte, but is the association with the little Princess too strong?

Fleur - pretty. I've only ever met one and she was early 30s
Lillian - I like Lillian but am so bored of Lily which it would inevitably get shortened too
Flora - pretty but I know 3 under 1s so it seems to be gaining in popularity quickly
Rose - lovely classic
Clara - beautiful name that it mentioned alot on here but I've not met any
Margot - classy and underused
Anouk - love it
Mirabel - pretty but a bit frilly for me
Charlotte - like but their are so many around atm
Selena - another lovely name
Felicity - nice enough
Beatrice - lovely I only know 1
Eulalie - I love the look of it but not so much the sound

My favourites would be Clara, Anouk and Margot

My least favourite Lillian, Felicity and Mirabel

Yep, 1/2 Dutch so hence Anouk. I think I agree with the concensus on Eulalie not being so good- it was a bit of a whim! x

I like Flora, Rose and Felicity best.

I don't like Fleur, Eulalie, or Mirabel at all I'm afraid

Lillian
Charlotte
Rose

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 09/06/2017 14:17

This is a great list, I keep going back to decide! Grin

I like Lillian best and Fleur the least.

IHeartDodo · 09/06/2017 14:09

Anouk is very Dutch/German sounding, so unless you have that in your family I wouldn't.

AnnaNimmity · 09/06/2017 14:08

I love Margot and Beatrice.

alltouchedout · 09/06/2017 14:08

I like flower-ish names so these are my favourite

Fleur
Lillian
Flora
Rose

Personally I wouldn't choose Beatrice or Eulalie

Charlotte is nice but I grew up with lots of Charlotte's in my class so would avoid for that reason rather than the association with the Princess.

daisypond · 09/06/2017 13:51

Most - Beatrice, Margot. Lillian could definitely be up there as well.
Least - Eulalie (makes me think of ukelele)

TipTop333 · 09/06/2017 13:49

Flier? Fleur!

TipTop333 · 09/06/2017 13:49

Most:
Flier
Margot
Beatrice

Least:
Rose (overused)
Eulalie (eulogy and reminds me of 'doolally')
