Thoughts?
We have a list of 5 potentials, but we both really like this I think, so I fear I'm making the list even bigger!!!
Would use Fran/Frannie for a nickname I think. DP is a big fan of a nickname.

It's ok, bit meh. Like Fran as nn, much better than Frankie.

Lovely.

Nice name. I don't like Frannie but Fran and Frankie are nice. It's like Francesca but a nice shorter option.

Yes, it’s great.

I like it. It’s an elegant non fussy name.

Lovely name! I like Frankie as a nickname and I like that there are a few options for a nickname.
