If somebody likes the following names what other names might they like?

Natasha
Felicity
Beatrice
Imogen
Miranda

I would say that these names are all quite classy whilst also being accessible (Natasha and Imogen maybe being a bit less chic nowadays than the others).

On the basis that I like Felicity and Beatrice, I'd say..

Francesca
Lucy
Penelope
Genevieve
Josephine
Jemima
Tabitha

AlexanderS · 11/12/2012 11:41

Interestingly, Jemima, Tabitha and Felicity were number 176, 177, and 178 respectively on the name charts last year!

I do like Tabitha. Could you get away with Tabby/Tabbie as a nickname, do you think?

Cecilia
Cecily
Cicely
Celia
Juliet
Annabelle
Arabella
Constance
Sophia

Psammead · 11/12/2012 11:45

Ha! That's weird. I suppose that defines my naming tastes Grin

What were the others in the 170s, if you have the list available?

Psammead · 11/12/2012 11:46

Oh, and I like Tabby or Tabs as a nickname.

AlexanderS · 11/12/2012 11:53

#170 Alexia
#171 Elena
#171 Scarlet (note spelling, hence why it is so low down)
#171 Zuzanna
#174 Robyn
#175 Jennifer
#176 Jemima
#177 Tabitha
#178 Felicity
#179 Autumn
#179 Ebony
#181 Amira

N.B Some names share a spot because they tie in terms of the number of babies given those names.

Oh, I love Robyn, too!

AlexanderS · 11/12/2012 13:09

Thank you everybody. I like Annabelle/Annabel and Cecily, and have been mulling over Jemima all morning. Jem/Jemmie for short? I like cutesy names ending in 'ie' as nicknames, as you might have guessed (!), but not on birth certificates.

Around here classy is counted as anything that isn't Evie. Half the girls I know have that name!
