Please give your humble opinions on five girls names....

[mummabug]

Juliet

Sylvia

Mae

Rachel

Vivienne

Which do you love, like, dislike, or loathe? Be as honest as you like!

GoldPlatedNineDoors I like Alice but OH is set against...as usual.

Julia Belle sounds so lovely.

It does but I think I will have to be giving way to Belle as the first name!

I like Rachael -seems softer than Rachel (and I know that makes no sense what so ever but I just think it is a prettier name)

plus I don't know any little Rachel/Rachaels

don't like the others, sorry

That's okay workshy :)

Rachel or Juliet I would use. The others are not my taste but unoffensive too - I would change Sylvia to Sylvie though if I was forced to use it.

juliet - love it! A really beautiful timeless classic which is not overused. My favourite on your list.

Sylvia - i love Sylvie, but Sylvia kind of reminds me of saliva. sorry.

Mae - no boring filler name. Sophie-mae, Rosie-Mae.

Rachel - lovely, a good strong name.

Vivien - i like this but it's too fussy if you spell it Vivienne.

I love the names Rachael and Juliet, but if your DH doesn't, then how about some of my other favourites instead?
Esther
Rita
Miriam
Matilda

I like Juliet and Sylvia.

Not keen on Vivienne or Mae (Vivian is a boy's name to me), and Rachel is inoffensive but dull.

Rita is very cute and due for a revival.

If you like May but you want something unusual there's the name Maythu which is pronounced May-too and is Burmese. Could be May for short.

vivienne is pretty but gets shortened to Viv.

Realised this thread is a massive trap, someone will have kids with these names and will get the raging hump about any critique so I will quit while ahead.

I knew a beautiful girl named Beth Juliet.

I love Rita. And Miriam too.

I think Sylvia and Vivienne are beautiful. I named one of my cats Vivienne as she deserved a beautiful name. Life had been hard for her, very young mother and she and kittens were dumped. Juliet, I do not like it, nor Mae or Rachel.

I really like Juliet and Vivienne. Sylvia was my MILs name and we thought about it for dd. Rachel is OK, but I/'m not very keen on Mae.

I don't like Bella or Belle at all, they don't seem like full names to e and the former is much too Twilight and the later is too Disney.

Get your dh to make some more suggestions, it's not fair for him to bulldoze you!

Rachael is the best name ever and is usually attached to amazing, cool people.

Vivienne is lovely too.

I like them all. Juliet maybe less so. Rachel is great but doesn't seem to fit the feeling of the others. I prefer the spelling May to Mae.
And I really love Sylvia and Vivienne.

I don't like Mae, Vivienne, or Bella.
The others are all lovely.
