Eliza - not keen. E;izabeth is nicer
Callie - ok if short for Caroline
Cleo - ok
Eleni - will get mispronounced as Elainey or Elleny instead of El-enni
Halle - ok for Halle Berry but isn't obvious that it's pronounced Halley

Eliza - I actually really like it, but prefer Elizabeth.
Callie - It gives horse vibes or the cat from Paw Patrol sorry!!
Cleo - Don't have a lot of opinions but it's alright.
Eleni - LOVE LOVE this one. Very pretty. Leni/Lani is pretty as well.
Halle - Don't mind it, but like Hallie more.

Halle
Most people will think halle Berry

Now that's a name hard to live up to

Lion1618 · 13/02/2023 09:28

I love Callie and Cleo. Halle is also lovely but perhaps a bit more popular at the moment. Eleni is ok, I prefer the way it looks written down to the way it sounds. Really dislike Eliza. I know it's a popular Mumsnet choice though.

Eliza -5/10
Callie 9/10
Cleo 9/10
Eleni 5/10
Halle 4/10

Love Callie, and Hallie but spelt like this (sorry). The lack of "i" makes it read like "Hal" to me.

Mumofgirls2017 · 12/02/2023 22:16

Eliza- 9/10 lovely
Callie- 8/10 alone, 9 if short for Callista or calliope
Cleo- 8/10
Eleni- 7/10
Halle- 4/10 but 6/10 if spelt Hallie

hlc123 · 12/02/2023 22:09

I love Callie, Cleo and Eliza (in that order), like Halle, not keen on Eleni

Thatcatisdrivingmenuts · 12/02/2023 22:07

Eleni

everythingsapickle · 12/02/2023 22:06

Love Eleni, but only if there is a Greek connection.

Cleo and Callie are OK.

Really dislike Halle and Eliza. It seems there is a lot of love for Eliza on MN though!

YukoandHiro · 12/02/2023 22:03

Eleni
Cleo
Eliza

Don't like the others

Josette77 · 12/02/2023 22:02

Eliza and Cleo.

NotABeliever · 12/02/2023 22:02

Eliza and Eleni are lovely.
Definitely not Cleo or Hall
Callie a maybe.

Dacadactyl · 12/02/2023 21:59

I like Cleo and Eliza. Maybe Callie. Not keen on the others.

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 12/02/2023 21:59

In preferential order

Cleo
Eliza
Halle
Callie
Eleni

AcrobaticCardigan · 12/02/2023 21:58

Eliza is the only nice name on the list. The rest are really awful!

StopFeckingFaffing · 12/02/2023 21:56

I love Eliza

Not hugely keen on any of the others

I prefer Carrie to Callie

Candleabra · 12/02/2023 21:55

I like Callie. Depends on your surname though as it could be a difficult match.

Miriam101 · 12/02/2023 21:53

Eleni is lovely. Will DC have Greek origins? Leni for short is cute too.

DramaAlpaca · 12/02/2023 21:35

I love Cleo and like Eliza.

Callie is a nice diminutive for a longer name.

I don't like Eleni and Halle at all.

Zola1 · 12/02/2023 21:03

Hate cleo, sounds like a stripper. Like all the others, Callie is my favourite

jamsandwich1 · 12/02/2023 21:01

I only like Eliza. Callie/Halle my least favourite.

silverpinecones · 12/02/2023 21:01

Eliza - my favourite
Callie - I like it. Have known 1 Callie and she was nice.
Cleo - like it
Eleni - unusual, not heard this one. It's alright!
Halle - not really a fan, you'll probably get all those comments about halitosis

garlictwist · 12/02/2023 21:01

AKASheilaTheGreat · 12/02/2023 20:53

Eliza is nice

I don't like any of the others

This.

How do you pronounce Halle?

CookieMonster55 · 12/02/2023 21:00

I see a Greek theme.. Eleni means Helen
