Opinions on girls names

[JuniperNarni]

I'd like some opinions on some of names on my girls list please.
Anastasia
Persephone
Meredith
Theodora

I really love Persephone, I'm expecting a little girl at the moment and it's definitely a name I wish I felt I could use, but I'd worry that too many people wouldn't know how to pronounce it. I think out of the four above, I'd go with Thea (Theodora on the birth certificate). Good luck and congrats.

I think I prefer Theodora of the four - whatever you choose will be shortened so that's something else to think about, any shortened versions you don't like...

Like all except Meredith as I hate names ending in th (having got one myself)

Theodora is my favourite

Theodora

Theodora or Meredith for me.

Persephone or Meredith.

For some reason I don't like Anastasia or Theodora as much.

I like them all except Meredith. While the other 3 seem cool Meredith seems dated to me.

I love that there are lots of good nn options for Anastasia (my favourites are Taisy and Tansy), Persephone (love Posy, Sephy, Persie), Theodora (Teddy, Dolly).

Like Theodora

Anastasia or Theodora are nice.
Meridith- not keen.
Persephone- really bad, try hard, pretentious and hilarious

I like Theodora much the best. I fear Mn killed Persephone for me, by the baby name forum choosing it as its archetypal posh girl name (even though I don't think that's in any way accurate), Anastasia for me will be forever a series of deluded/fraudster pretenders being the lost Romanov in bad TV movies, and I think Meredith has a flicky-haired, coy, American Valley Girl thing going on.

In order:
Theodora
Anastasia
Meredith
Persephone

Love Anastasia and sorry to say hate the rest. Find them really ugly.

I like Anastasia best.

Persephone is nice too but some might assume it was pronounced "Percy Phone" until corrected.

Seraphina
Penelope
Octavia
Stephanie
Cordelia

Personally not a huge fan of any sorry! If I had to pick I'd go with Theodora as she could be called Thea for short

All of them except Meredith are nice.

Anastasia - I like this.
Persephone - this is the joke "spoilt baby" name in our family (for a hypothetical child), so I'd struggle to use it. I think the nn options are unappealing and you'd have to correct some "Percy-phone"ing... So, it's a no from me.
Meredith - I have a personal reason to dislike the name, ie bad association, but it's actually a pretty name. Little Merry- I like it!
Theodora - love it! But worry about popularity/trendiness of Thea.

Opposite to some others! Love Meredith (lovely nickname options) but don't like any of the others.

Anastasia - I love this name. I'd possibly use it as a middle name if I ever had a daughter
Persephone - not keen, too posh/Greek mythology for me!
Meredith - cant get the association of evil meredith from the parent trap out of my head so really sont like it! It's a very harsh sounding name to me
Theodora - dont like but do like thea

I like Anastasia very much.
Persephone is a bit try hard.
Meredith is frumpy in the extreme.
Theodora is nice enough, but I really dislike the diminutives Thea & Dora.
