I like Bonnie.
I don’t like Juno or Isadora. Margot and Evangeline seem really popular on this board so I’d probably avoid.

Peachbubble · 30/11/2018 09:13

Margot would be my choice. I like Isadora and Evangeline, but know girls called this, who are just called Izzy and Evie now, and I'm not keen on the short names. I know a 7 year old Bonnie (she's Bonnie on her bc too), but wonder if this will sound too babyish when she's older. Not a fan of Juno at all.

TatianaLarina · 30/11/2018 09:29

Juno or Margot - but Margot is super popular.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 30/11/2018 09:40

Juno or Isadora.

Isadora gives some lovely nn possibilities.

Strongly dislike Bonnie

Polkasq · 30/11/2018 09:47

I like Evangeline and Isadora best. Not a fan of Margot.

Bunnymumma · 30/11/2018 09:48

Ooooh ISADORA! How charming!

MashNpeas · 30/11/2018 11:33

Margot is getting extremely popular so I'd go Bonnie or Isadora. I know 4 Margot's born since Summer

LavenderBush · 30/11/2018 11:39

I like all of them except Bonnie.

Snowwontbelong · 30/11/2018 11:41

Would love posters to give an estimated location as all of those names would be Hmmwhere I live!! (NE).

Pinklily1 · 30/11/2018 11:44

Isadora makes me think of wisadora so i would avoid for that reason. Margot and Evangeline are lovely.

Sophronia · 30/11/2018 11:55

Juno Evangeline or Isadora Juno

daisypond · 30/11/2018 11:59

Margot is my favourite by far. I quite like Isadora and Juno as well. Bonnie is too babyish and Evangeline is too frilly.

lolamooo · 30/11/2018 12:00

snow I’m in London so it gets a lot more questionable than this Grin

Really like Juno but not the others!

reeny19 · 30/11/2018 12:37

Bonnie and Margot the better ones.

Isadora just reminds me of wizadora! (A kid’s show in the 90’s)

17caterpillars1mouse · 30/11/2018 12:47

I really love Isadora and Evangeline

Don't like Juno at all and don't understand the love for it on here

ThatGirl82 · 30/11/2018 13:10

I love Juno. It was on my list but DP didn't like it sadly.

brodiee · 30/11/2018 13:20

Juno is gorgeous

RedDwarves · 30/11/2018 20:39

Love Juno.

Like Bonnie and Evangeline.

Not a fan of Margot or Isadora.

Shadow1234 · 30/11/2018 20:58

Evangeline

Astronica · 30/11/2018 23:37

All good and usable names.

Juno - my favourite. Simple but strong and quirky, not frilly and not over popular
Bonnie - my 2nd favourite - bright, straightforward, sweet but strong
Evangeline and Isadora - okay but a little frilly for me, like Evie nn
Margot - currently stylish and popular, just a little harsh sounding for me

DramaAlpaca · 30/11/2018 23:48

I love Juno & Evangeline.

Bonnie is a bit twee.

Isadora is OK, but I hate Dora which it might get shortened to.

I find Margot a very ugly, harsh name.

lolamooo · 30/11/2018 23:51

We’re still so stuck!!
Evangeline is quite frilly but we’d be nicknaming her Effy which I love as a nn (I know it’s not an immediate one but if you can get it out of Elizabeth then why not)
And Juno is just so cool and spunky to me- the type of name I wish I had
Margot and Isadora are both just so beautiful to me
Not sure Bonnie matches up and may be close to scratching that one off the list
