Clara, Claudia, Eliza, Eloise, Matilda, Tabitha, Tamara

[PeriodMath]

Could I garner opinions on these names? Due quite soon - just cannot decide! Looking for classy, not too popular, usual drill

I have a Matilda who is 4, I don't know another single one! And I'm a teacher, never come across one!

Clara - love
Claudia - hate, for no reason, I just hate it!
Eliza- ok
Eloise - a bit meh imo
Matilda - quite nice, but I know quite a few
Tabitha - I know a few, tends to be shortened to Tabs, which is awful imo.
Tamara - Tamara you're only a day aahhh waaaayyyyy

like them all, love Tabitha as I have one (nn T, no Tabby or Tabs here!) but think Matilda is pretty popular.

Have a one year old Claudia so I'm biased...but it's a gorgeous name and I have never regretted choosing it...

I also love Eliza.

The others are nice too...you must have good taste

I LOVE Clara, I really like Claudia. I don't like the others.

Matilda and Eloise are lovely! - two names that are on our shortlist too! :)

However, if you've seen the film "Leon" like we have (DP and I love that film) it always makes us say "This one... is for.. Matilda!"

Clara quite nice and unusual at the moment but still classy and nice
Claudia I like this
Eliza personally don't like but nothing wrong with it. Know lots of very spoilt/bossy little eliza/eliz/elise (but I know that is a huge over generalisation!)
Eloise not for me
Matilda love, quite popular at the moment but that doesn't really matter
Tabitha really dislike
Tamara not keen

I seem to differ from your other replies because my favourite on your list is Tamara. I would nn Tammy, which I like even more than Tamara. I don't usually go for nn's either.

However, all your names are nice.

I like Tamara as well. I also like Clara, Matilda (nn Tilly) and Tabitha.

Really dislike Eloise but seem to be in a minority.

Matilda is great. I have a 4 year old relative who wears this name well. Don't know any others.
Claudia is very nice.
Tamara I'm on the fence - I much prefer Tamsin.
Clara seems clunky.
Eliza is meh - Elizabeth for lazy namers ;)
Tabitha - MN loves it, but I really can't stand it.
Eloise - it's nice. I prefer Louisa.
