Elsie
Felicity
Clara
Primrose

Primrose is probably my favourite, it’s pretty, a little unusual and makes me think of Victorian times (no idea why!).

MrsMarigold · 05/05/2018 08:14

I think Aubrey might be a boys name.

I really like all of them, Coralie probably my favourite.

RavenWings · 05/05/2018 08:22

Elsie - ok. Weak sounding and childish imo but ok.
Primrose - despise this, frilly and flouncy and toddler esque.
Juno - no
Clara - ok, Cara is better
Coralie - very pretty
Aubrey - nice
Felicity - nice

I'd go for Felicity or Coralie.

Sophronia · 05/05/2018 08:34

Juno or Primrose

jellycat1 · 05/05/2018 08:48

Juno Felicity and Clara nice. Aubrey is an old man in my head. Very ugly name - imho.

RoundaboutSnail · 05/05/2018 08:53

I like them all except Juno and Aubrey.

Frosty66612 · 05/05/2018 08:59

I like Elsie the best, very pretty! Felicity is ok. Don’t like any of the others

overcurrent · 05/05/2018 09:03

I love the name Clara.

Enidblyton1 · 05/05/2018 09:06

Love Juno and Clara

The others are all nice, though I'm not so keen on Elsie because it's very popular around here.

Aubrey is my least favourite - it's an old mans name. I met a little girl Aubrey the other day and it just felt wrong. Like her parents were trying too hard to be cool.

LadyWithLapdog · 05/05/2018 09:06

Felicity
Clara

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 05/05/2018 09:11

Coralie is lovely Z,

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 05/05/2018 09:12

*Z ... 🤔

LoveInTokyo · 05/05/2018 09:14

Elsie - Victorian scullery maid name, not so great on an adult woman

Primrose - silly on a little girl, ridiculous on an adult woman

Juno - love it

Clara - love it

Coralie - OK

Aubrey - don’t like it

Felicity - like it

daisypond · 05/05/2018 09:20

Elsie - definite no - drab, demeaning servant name
Primrose - yes, quite like
Juno - hmm, just about OK in a hippie way.
Clara - yes, OK, classic.
Coralie - OK, but a bit frilly
Aubrey - a boy's name.
Felicity - yes.

Juno and Clara
