Anna
Julia
Tessa
Maria
Alexandra (nn alex)

I have no idea why they all end in 'a', not deliberate! Dd1 has a name ending in 'a' also, must be some unconscious bias.

Not too keen on Tessa, but others are very nice. Anna is by far my favourite!

I have an Anna. Still love it, and only one in her school.
The Frozen factor may increase it's popularity, but my kids thought she was caller Honour for months because of the accent in the film!

All lovely names, but my favourite would have to be Anna.

I like Tessa the most! To my mind it's way too much Julia's, Anna's and Maria's and Alexandra's around((

I like most of the names on your list, but my favourites are probably Anna and Maria, although I do like Alexandra and Julia :)

I really like Tessa, Maria and Anna.

There are loads of Alexandras and Alexanders, all known as Alex and Ally, where I am, and I prefer Juliet to Julia.

Thanks for all the feedback guys, Anna seems the clear favourite. Two suggestions from my 8 yr old niece today which I actually quite like, Joanna and Lara, what think you? Funny that people are saying there are a lot of Alexandra's, must be a regional thing, there's none here at all.
