None of them unless held at gun point to be honest. But if forced to choose then Constance, but always called Connie.

Moon I love the name Mina but DH thinks it’s a bit “blah”.
How about Ramona?

I love them all except Ophelia which sounds a little like "oh feelin' ya" to me but might be accent related. Persephone was on my list nn Perry my granny was jemima but nn Mina and I love Constance as it sounds like it belongs to a strong stable kick ass girl.

Opehlia

Ophelia!

Santababyclaus · 08/01/2019 09:37

Jemima

Jemima! Fantastic name and easy winner for me. 2nd choice is Persephone - fun, characterful and lots of great nns. I'm not keen on the others.

Jemima

Disfordarkchocolate · 08/01/2019 09:01

Constance is my favourite of the ones on your list.

I think Ophelia are Constance are ugly, frumpy names, but I like the other two. I’d say Jemima.

Ophelia.

Constance

MissLanesAmericanCousin · 08/01/2019 08:44

Hands down Ophelia.
Simply put, one of the most gorgeous names I have ever heard for a girl/woman.

Not to mention, some of the most beautiful pieces of artwork, in both painting and sculpture are homages to Shakespeares tortured heroine.

It's such a beautiful name, that for a split second, it makes me want to procreate!
