Beatrice and Matilda are on my list too! Not too keen on Tilda though. After that I'd say:

Nina
Tabitha (Tabby)
Anna
Jemima (I say puddle duck in my head whenever I see this name)

Anna - lovely
Matilda - ok
Jemima - not keen
Tabitha - not keen

Tabitha is my all time most favourite girl’s name ever. So:-

1 Tabitha
2 Anna
3 Nina
4 Matilda
5 Jemima
6 Beatrice

But really only Tabitha. Love it.

MrsBertBibby · 01/03/2019 22:25

Nina! I wanted that.
Anna is a great name.
I don't much like Matilda or Beatrice.
Jemima and Tabitha are not nice at all.

Jemima
Bea (but prefer Beatrix to Beatrice)
