I love Juliet, classic and underused! Elodie is ok, not keen on Callie.

RickOShay · 28/06/2019 13:20

Juliet is lovely. I also like Callie, but spelt Kali like the Indian goddess.
I think it looks more like a name in its own right, and is more elegant somehow.

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 28/06/2019 13:16

In order:

Elodie
Eliza
Orla
Juliet

Pinkfinkle · 28/06/2019 13:07

I only like Elodie and Eliza, out of the two I’d pluck for Elodie.

Snowy81 · 28/06/2019 09:30

Elodie or Callie. Juliet would become Julie, very 70’s.

Thanks all, I think I've narrowed it down to Juliet and Elodie (and possibly Callie)...

Juliet

Kokeshi123 · 28/06/2019 04:51

Juliet or Eliza.

Callie sounds like a nickname, Cleo is OK but maybe a bit "much." I think there are starting to be a ton of Elodies at the moment, nice though it is.

Frith2013 · 28/06/2019 00:18

I like them all, apart from Eliza.

Willowkoko · 27/06/2019 22:46

Callie is nice, doesn’t hear it very often. Orla for under 5’s is very popular in West Midlands area.

username1724 · 27/06/2019 22:40

Elodie is beautiful (my favourite) Eliza is pretty too.

motortroll · 27/06/2019 22:37

Juliet is my fave name ever!!

Sophronia · 27/06/2019 22:36

Cleo or Juliet

Nonameyet1 · 27/06/2019 22:10
  1. Callie - if I had another this would be it’s name.
  2. Eliza
  3. Actually can’t order the rest - I’m not that keen on them but if you love them go with that.
snowone · 27/06/2019 21:30

I love Callie - it was on my list for DD1 a few years ago Smile

Marty93 · 27/06/2019 20:57

Eloidie and Juliet are my faves x

Bellaposey · 27/06/2019 19:35

Juliet or Elodie both gorgeous! Juliet would pip it for me as so many E names around atm.

bigglewig · 27/06/2019 19:31

Elodie is gorgeous!!!

summerofresistance · 27/06/2019 19:17

Eliza.

Beautiful name, and several possible NNs - eg Liza, Elle, Ellie, Liz,

My name has several NNs and I've always liked that different people in my life use different NNs for me.

userabcname · 27/06/2019 19:13

My favourite is Juliet

teenmum18 · 27/06/2019 18:58

Callie and Eliza are my favourites.

Chocolateandcarbs · 27/06/2019 18:57

I really like Juliet and Eliza. Cleo is not for me!

Fatkins · 27/06/2019 18:53

Juliet is my favourite by miles! If we had another DD, it would be top of our list!

I also like Eliza and Cleo.

ChihuahuaMummy1 · 27/06/2019 17:19

Elodie and Callie

SnowdropFox · 27/06/2019 17:07

Callie
Elodie
Juliet
For me with Elodie pushing slightly ahead but love these three. Indifferent to the other three.
