Hi ????

Im looking for some honest feedback on my list of girls names. We live in Glasgow, and find some names sound strange in the Scottish accent!

Our names are:

Daisy
Violet
Juliette
Penny

I like pretty but not too popular... Am also open to suggestions ????

Juliet looks like you have missed a space between Julie and t, spell it the correct way if your going to use it.

Juliet is the correct spelling. Confused

Juliette is the French spelling, and I just think its prettier looking than Juliet. Juliet looks unfinished imo

Juliet is a lovely name, quite classic. I love Violet too, it's the name of my fictional third child (I like to have a name picked out even though I've definitely stopped at two DCs!)

If you wanted a nod to Margaret isn't Maisie a Scottish diminutive, an alternative to Daisy if that's too popular?

The more I've read Juliet the more it doesn't look like a word any more!

" Juliet looks like you have missed a space between Julie and t, spell it the correct way if your going to use it. "

that IS the "correct" spelling!!
How on earth do you think it is spelt then?

I really love Juliet and Penny . I think Juliet is so pretty and underused

I know a Juliet of every age from mine, 55, to tiny tots. It's a classic that has endured. I don't think it goes with Margaret but what about Margot? It certainly goes with Daisy a diminutive.

I just love Juliette, and much prefer the French spelling! The same with Lucie i think thats just lovely! Also really like Violet, so pretty!
