My DP is being very difficult particular about choosing girls' names. He's vetoed pretty much every name I like for various reasons.

Basically I'm now looking for names that are

*classic but not posh
*unusual but not weird
*not too short (at least 5 letters)
*have options for nicknames

Anyone have a good suggestion, or does this perfect name not exist?

Florence - shorten to Florrie, Flo, Flossie, Floss.
Matilda - shorten to Tilly, Tilda, Matty.
Georgina - Georgie.
Elizabeth - Lizzy, Betty, Liz, Beth.
Charlotte - Charlie, Lottie.

Just off the top of my head...
