Zélie (pronounced similarly to zay-lee)
Beatrix
Lorelei
Nellie
Scarlett

What do you think of when you hear these names? Are there any positive /negative connotations I'm not thinking of? (I know about the creepy mermaid called Lorelei who used her beauty and song to lure men to their deaths but I actually quite like this! It's made me like the name more for some reason 😂)

Thanks in advance!

Love that list! Is Ianthe pronounced 'eye-an-thee'?

Also love Ramona, Coralie, Darcie and Sadie!

Love Beatrice, don’t like Beatrix.
Love Nell, don’t like Nellie.

Zélie is pronounced more like ‘eh’ than ‘ay’. The British will never get the E right - she’ll get called Zeelee and Zaylee.

Don’t like Ramona but like Romilly.
