Molly
Savannah

Not keen on the others.

MikeUniformMike · 24/11/2016 19:31

Don't like any of them particularly. Think of abbreviated forms too. Darce. Moll, Hat, Lot, Scaz. Vile, Theenz.. etc. Of that lot, I'd choose (Charlotte shortened to) Lottie.

Sleepybeanbump · 24/11/2016 19:35

Not keen on any aide from Violet. I like Hattie, Lottie etc but only as nicknames not actual names.

And Athina reads like a typo of Athena to me.

Bluntness100 · 24/11/2016 19:37

Autumn for me. That's a lovely name.

  3. Autumn
  4. Savannah

  7. Darcie (Darcy)
  8. Scarlett (though there's a very special MN Scarlett I light candles for xx)

Darcie, Athena & Savannah I'm equally unseen on.

nat73 · 25/11/2016 05:17

Don't ask yorself what is a good name for a 2 year old. Ask you self what is a good name for an adult woman!

PitilessYank · 25/11/2016 05:45

Molly and Violet are my two favorites. Most of the others sound a little dated to me.

mathanxiety · 25/11/2016 06:30

I put them in groups in order of preference.

Hattie, Athena (not Athina), Lottie - not too bad, as long as Hattie and Lottie are nns for Harriet or Henrietta, and Charlotte.
Athena is only there if spelled that way.

Violet, Autumn, Savannah - ok names. Minor royal wannabe to some extent?

Molly, Maisie - very twee.

Darcie, Scarlett - Darcie has 'arse' in the middle and Scarlett is really clunky, and also features in Dublin slang, meaning 'mortified with embarrassment'.

lizzieoak · 25/11/2016 16:04

Mathanxiety - is Savannah a posh name in the UK? Where I live it's quite the opposite, so I'm curious about that.

User1987654 · 25/11/2016 16:33

Savannah ( it's an American name but very pretty) , Autumn & Violet.
I like Lottie but only if short for Charlotte.
I like Athena but Athina is horrid spelling.

Not crazy on the rest.
