DH and I seem to have different tastes in names and we have finally compiled a list of some we both like. Would like to know other people’s impressions of them. Help us narrow them down!

Phillipa
Ottilie
Candace
Pandora
Henrietta
Juliet
Clementine

Pandora is a great name. Phillipa is nice but I'd use it on the BC and call her Pippa day to day.

Candace is not great imo.

Ottilie is just the worst out of your choices. Can't believe anyone uses it.

The rest are fine.

Juliet

I'd go Philippa (spelt that way) or Juliet.

I like Ottilie and Juliet. Pandora is nice sounding, but myth is bad. I don't like how Clementine is pronounced. Phillipa is always male version of Philip to me and Henrietta is too long and too Henry-like. I don't think Candace is posh, if that's what you're going for.

Juliet or possibly Clementine are nice.

Ottilie seems to be all over the place now, I don't see the appeal tbh.

Pandora is an interesting choice, I don't dislike it though. Are you massive Adrian Mole fans?, 😊

I don’t really like the others

butterdish93 · 14/05/2025 13:22

Or Juliet

Pandora
