Alice- love. Classic and timeless. Also very pretty but strong.
Imogen-like. It's pretty. I see anImogen as strong and Independent.
Sienna- ok name but very common where I live. I also think it will date.
Lucia- I don't like it. Sounds pretentious unless you have some exotic heritage. I also think of Lucifer.

LinoleumBlownapart · 06/04/2019 13:21

I like Alice best. I would avoid Lucia due to your surname. Sienna is nice but feels a bit dated now, loads of Sienna's in the early 2000's. Imogen is lovely too.

In order:
Alice
Imogen
Lucia
Sienna

Imogen- gorgeous name

Onetwistedangel · 06/04/2019 17:13

Alice is my favourite. Imogen is also lovely though

Sophronia · 06/04/2019 18:16

order of preference:
Alice- timeless classic!
Lucia- much nicer than lucy imo
Imogen
Sienna

All nice names :)

Bellaposey · 06/04/2019 20:05

Exactly the same as blue above.
Love Alice
Like Imogen
Sienna is having a really moment where I live. It's so common all or a sudden it will date horribly.
Don't like Lucia

spritesandunicorns · 06/04/2019 20:10

Imogen though I’m biased Wink

ReginaPhalange89 · 06/04/2019 20:18

In order I like .... Alice, Imogen, Lucia, Sienna

Alice is classic, feminine and lovely for all ages !
Imogen I do like. It's pretty but quite cool.
Lucia is very pretty but not sure if it's TOO girly for my liking. If that makes sense. Like it's very princessy and cutesy
Sienna I'm just over . Haha. It's a 2012 ish fad (just my opinion. I know loads born then but none recently ) .

PlatypusLeague · 06/04/2019 20:59

I like Lucia best but wouldn't put it with your surname. Sienna is nice and would work well I think, Alice is OK but not sure it flows well with an L surname. Not really a fan of Imogen.

Isla
Sophia
Genevieve
Marianne
Isadora

ohhelpohnoitsa · 06/04/2019 21:03

Love Imogen or Alice, prefer Alice of the two. Imogens I know often get shortened ro Immy. Hence I prefer Alice.

BikeRunSki · 06/04/2019 21:10

Imogen - like this

Alice- rather fond of this, has served me well for nearly 50 years
Sienna - irrational dislike of this
Lucia - ok, prefer “Lucy-a” to “Looshea”.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 06/04/2019 21:14

Imogen - cute name
Alice - awful, dated and frumpy
Sienna - a bit too popular
Lucia - fav! Love

OldAndWornOut · 06/04/2019 21:16

Imogen is lovely.
Alice is my least favourite.

GU24Mum · 06/04/2019 21:19

My order would be :

Imogen -very nearly used this
Alice - we've got this as a middle name
Lucia - fine and looks nice written down
Sienna - not really my thing

If your surname with lots of "L"s is something like Llewellyn then Lucia is fine; if it's something like Lollipop (!), then I'd take it off the list!

FlumpyMummy · 06/04/2019 21:29

Alice is my favourite name from your list. It is feminine yet strong and underused imo.

MercyBodle · 07/04/2019 07:54

In this order for me from my favourite:

Imogen
Alice
Lucia
Sienna

Hassled · 07/04/2019 08:02

I love Alice too but if your surname is L-heavy, that L in the middle may make it a mouthful. Imogen is really pretty.

daisypond · 07/04/2019 08:20

Alice is my favourite, though the others are ok. I like Lucia but I’d assume you were Italian. Sienna is nice but not as classic and it’s perhaps a bit dated. I’m not so keen on Imogen. It seems a bit downmarket to me now , despite its Shakespeare link - maybe dated? I know quite a few in their 20s. Perhaps it’s a bit common.

Icklepup · 07/04/2019 08:37

Love Alice

LegoPiecesEverywhere · 07/04/2019 10:58

Alice or Lucia
