Is our list too boring?

I showed our list to a friend, and she told us to pick whatever we love but gently let us know that she considered the names to be a bit out of fashion and too popular in the past...

I'd love some comments on:

Chloe
Sophie
Emma
Sarah
Sarah-Jane
Annabelle
Eva
Jolie
Zoey
Hannah

Would be helpful if you could comment on all of them or some if you don't have time.

Are they too boring? We like how classic and grounded they feel. Zoey is the exception but I grew up watching films featuring Zoey Deutch so it looks nice to me.

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I love Chloe Sophie Emma and Hannah. I really dislike hyphenated names though.

If they're the names you both like it doesn't matter a jot if they're not currently uber fashionable.

Chloe - pretty, quite 90s
Sophie - I do find this one pretty boring to be fair. Just know so so many of them
Emma - classic
Sarah - classic
Sarah-Jane - don't usually like double barrel names but quite like this one
Annabelle - always think of this as being a doll's name
Eva - elegant
Jolie - this one is a bit left field. Unfamiliar with it as a first name. Would wonder if you're an Angelina super fan
Zoey - love it but prefer the Zoe spelling
Hannah - good solid name

What they said. They are lovely names snd it’s not up to anyone else.

All lovely. Ignore your friend.

If you like them, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. They are classic names, and probably mean your child won't be known as "first name, surname initial" in class as they aren't super common. They are all pretty names, and ones that will suit both a small child and an adult.
