Imogen a million times over, I love it. Nn Mo or Mimi if you're looking to avoid Immy.

The others are perfectly lovely but a tad frilly for me personally.

Juliet is the best one but it's getting popular at the moment.

Sabrina reminds me of the witch.

For me, Imogen by a country mile

*age.

Cassandra- beautiful name but a sad story. Also Rodney's girlfriend for those of a certain again.

ABrightSilverLining · 10/05/2022 15:09

My favourite is Sabrina.

I like Sabrina. Well known but not overused, has a bit of zhuzh, works well internationally. I love the Audrey Hepburn film too.

Tryhard40 · 10/05/2022 14:25

I really love all of those names.

I would maybe err on the side of Sabrina (and because I love the film with Audrey H) or Cassandra as they're more unusual. Cassandra will inevitably be shortened to Cassie so bear that in mind.

Leaning towards Sabrina because it is a bit more unusual but my second choice would be Juliet.

Rosekeeper · 10/05/2022 14:06

All beautiful options and hard to pick between! I would ask whether any of the associated nicknames would make any difference to how you felt about them? Imo, Sab, Jules, Cassie? I know we often pick names not planning to use a nickname but often these are adopted by friends/family etc so I wouldn’t pick a name if I didn’t like an obvious nickname for it.

I think I would lean towards Sabrina but I do have a love for the nickname Cassie so could be tempted by Cassandra too.
