Juliet
Judith (Jude)
Sadie
Erica
Monica
Lorelai

What are your first thoughts? Do you like then? What sort of girl/woman do you picture with these names?

Yes I am a big Gilmore Girls fan!

My favourite is Juliet.
Also quite like Daphne and Monica.

I like:

• Juliet
• Sadie

Dislike:

• India
• Judith
• Erica
• Monica
• Lorelei (this is the correct spelling)

I'm neutral about Mara, Meredith and Daphne.

I love Monica, it's lovely and not over used.
Also like Meredith and Juliet.
Sorry, really don't like the others.

Love Daphne! It was our name for 5 month old ds had he been a girl.

Other than that - Meredith.

I like all of these except Erica (find it a little old fashioned) and Lorelei (bit out there). My niece is Daphne so love that one

Only like Sadie

Like Judith and Erica. Two great names

Only like Erica Monica Lorelei.
The others, Judith especially are woeful

India
Juliet

the only two I like unfortunately!

Meredith and Lorelei were on our list! So I like those.
Really don't like Judith, Monica, Erica or Daphne.

Only like Sadie - I used to like laurelei after a Marilyn Monroe film but that was when I was a kid .... it's too fussy now

Juliet for me. It was on our list.

I don't like Monica or Sadie. Monica because of the series friends, my mind immediately thinks of her and Sadie, I think is quite a harsh sounding name. Apologies to anyone with those names.😞

I like Mara, Meredith, Juliet and Sadie. The others not so much.

Mara and Sadie are both lovely, pretty but strong sounding to me.
I like Jude on its own, but not Judith.

Fave is Sadie

Lorelie is horrible.

Hate Lorelei, love Daphne. The others are ok.

I stopped at India as I think it's a great name for a girl

Mara- I'd assume Irish background, quite nice.
India- Used to love this and it's pretty, but I think it's a cliché unless you have a particular connection to /interest in India the country. You'd have to at least have been there!
Meredith- very Welsh
Daphne- quite an intellectual kind of name
Juliet- I prefer the spelling Juliette as it seems more feminine but Juliet is an academic's kind of name
Judith (Jude)- My least favourite on this list, but my taste is more 'pretty' names
Sadie- a little bit 'posh hippy', sort of same genre as India
Erica- I used to think it was ugly but I now think it's cool, also academic sounding
Monica- Sounds Italian/Spanish to me.
Lorelai- A different genre to your other names but nice. It's spelt Lorelei though and I'd assume a child names Lorelai had parents who couldn't spell (again, sorry!)

As a whole I'd say the list (exept India, Lorelei, Sadie and Monica) tends to sound 'intellectual' rather than girly. I'd assume the mother was the academic/feminist type who refused to buy anything pink for her girls and hopes they'll go into politics! ;)

I only like Juliet.

I like Mara, India, Juliet and Sadie.

Really dislike Meredith, Judith, Monica, Erica and Lorelai.

I like Juliet, Erica and Meredith best.

Mara - OK, prefer Marla or Cara for some reason!
India - reminds me of a well-known person I don't like
Meredith - quite like this, sounds a bit mysterious
Daphne - I knew a really lovely Daphne and the meaning is nice
Juliet - fabulous name, classic, literary, not overused
Judith (Jude) - OK but a little hard sounding
Sadie - OK but again sounds slightly hard
Erica - yes, I like this, it's a bit quirky
Monica - a bit "Friends" but I do like it and it's fairly unusual
Lorelai - Don't like

Not keen on Meredith or Daphne

Like Sadie and Juliet

Love love love Lorelei

I like Mara and Juliet the best. Meredith is nice too. I dislike the others, sorry.

Juliet and Meredith are gorgeous. The others are nice but not to my taste. I can imagine Lorelei would be really sweet on a baby though and would probably have a cute nickname (Rory?!)
