Julia

What about julia?

Love it when pronounced Jool-E-a, but not when pronounced Jool-ya. Someone I know pronounces Amelia as “Ameelya” as opposed to Ameel-E-a and it sounds awful.

My favourite girl’s name but sounds daft with our surname

It’s beautifull! Had it on my list for a while but don’t see it suggested much. Saying that it apparently ranked 93 in 2016 with 578 babies! Regardless it’s pretty, classic and underused.

Love it.

If I had a fourth she would have been Juliet (if a she)

But I love Julia too. wonderful classic name

Another very biased vote here! It's not too wacky or unusual but very underused - there was only one other Julia in my school in the 90s and I don't know any now.

Love this name! No need for any variation of it either.

Beautiful and classic.

lovely name

is this going to be a 100% thumbs up? Surely a first on the baby names board!

Very exciting!

lovely

Love the name Julia - timeless, simple & beautiful
The comment about the a at the end is amazing I’d never noticed that !

Really? Just no.

One of my favourites. Interesting how it feels pretty timeless whereas Julie definitely doesn't!

My name. So a big yes!

I love Julia too, and agree it's much better than Julie.

Yes. to both Julia and Juliet. Beautiful sounding names, no bad connotations, timeless and ageless.

Love it !

My absolute favourite girls name, it’s so beautiful! But I have four boys so I’ll never get to us it

Another Julia here who loves her name.

Easy to say, easy to spell, people have heard of it but it’s not overly popular. Occasionally people mishear as Julie but it’s easily corrected. My parents and oldest friends occasionally call me Jules (which I like) but they are the only ones, no one else has ever shortened it.

I'm not keen. Seems too middle aged.

Classic, elegant and beautiful.

It's a yes from me!
