Lara Elise is beautiful. I knew a Lara as a child and she was gorgeous, sweet and clever so it has great connotations for me!

In order of fave to least-

  1. Juliette (Julieta- love 'Etta' or 'Etsy' or 'Jewel' but dislike 'Jules, Julie, Julia)
  2. Autumn (different, yet strong, I like 'A' names)
  3. Emerald (like abbreviated version 'Em' and love Jewel related names eg Pearl, Saphira, Ruby etc)
  4. Arabella (a bit too sweet IYSWIM? Like 'Cinderella')
  5. Lara (Croft? Still not horrible imo)

  1. Lara - I LOVE this name Smile
  2. Juliette - probably wouldn't use it, but it's very pretty


Arabella sounds like arable and makes me think of farming! It also sounds incredibly snobby.

Autumn is a bit tacky, IMO. Sounds very American to my ears.

Emerald is just odd Hmm

Also, I really can't see Autumn or Emerald (perhaps even Arabella) working in French...
