Personally, my favourite 3 are:
  1. Harriet
  2. Florence (plenty of nickname choices - e.g. Flo, Floss, Flossie, Florrie)
  3. Charlotte (nicknames Charlie, Lottie, Lotte, Charl)

Anya is nice too, and seems quite unusual.

Least favourite: Martha, Anna, and Annie. Personally I'm not that keen on Rosie either, but I quite like Rosa or Rosalyn.

Favourite:

Martha
Alice
Florence

Really like these three names, very classic and strong sounding. Not keen on Rosie, but I do really like Rose and Rosa.

Least favourite:

Annie, also Anna - bit dull
Harriet - bit horsey
Maisie - very trendy / popular, sounds quite wishy washy to me

TildaTurnip · 27/12/2020 12:15

I like all except for Maisie

I prefer names without 'uh' or 'ee' endings.

My first and middle are on that list Grin

Funnily enough they're not my taste but top 3 would be:

Martha
Anna
Charlotte

Least fave:
Florence (just because it is sooooo popular and more on the trendy side than classic side IMO)
Anya
Maisie - too twee
