Love... Rosa, Martha, Cassia, all beautiful
Like... Naomi, Beatrix, Maria, Marianna, Edith, Stella (would love Stella if it weren't for Stella Artois spoiling it just a tiny bit!)
On the fence about Tess, I love Tessa but Tess and especially Therese seem very serious and solemn to me!

Not a fan of..

  • Constance (sounds like Constant, which to my mind is not really a positive thing, sounds like constant headache, constant nagging etc)
-Tallulah (sounds overly frivolous and reminds me of that girl named Tallullah does the Hula from Hawaii. And Bugsy Malone) -Mary (again, sounds old and sombre to me, and the only Mary in my year at school was nicknamed Virgin Mary or just Virgin) -Virginia (see above, only more so. Also sounds too much like vagina imo) -Lucia, nothing wrong with it per se, just don't like how it sounds although I love the name Lucy. But would wonder people would get pronunciation confused- Lu-chi-a or Lu-ssi-a? -Paloma, not a fan.. dare I say it sounds kind of notiony 😬and reminds me of Palmolive despite Paloma Faith

Sorry don't mean to be harsh with any of my comments! Think the majority are lovely names

I have exactly the same opinion as this!

mathanxiety · 10/05/2023 16:21

No to Cassia too - too much Kasha/ Kass-ee-a confusion. Kezia is lovely though, and comes from the same root.

mathanxiety · 10/05/2023 16:19

Love:
Paloma
Beatrix
Mary
Edith

Also Tess (no need for BC name Theresa - Tess is a name unto itself at this point).

Lose the rest.
