My favourite is definitely Harlow! An absolutely gorgeous name!! Charlotte and Valentina are also lovely. Not keen on Eden, Remi or Roma. x

BlueMerchant · 17/04/2019 15:05

Valentina is lovely, elegant and very pretty name.
Harlow is modern and elegant with an 'edge'.

originallyfromLA · 17/04/2019 15:07

Isn't Harlow somewhere in Essex?!

Ribbonsonabox · 17/04/2019 15:10

I like Valentina and Eden the best. Both beautiful names.

I once knew a man called Remi so it's a boys name for me.
Harlow makes me think of Harlot.
Charlotte is classic but slightly dull to me.
Roma makes me think of gypsies and its just one of those things I personally dislike unless you do actually have Roma heritage, I mean to say I dislike people using other minority or oppressed cultures names unless they actually have some link to them.

I like Eden, Charlotte and Valentina from your list.

lordofthefries · 17/04/2019 15:11

Valentina is beautiful

CocoLoco87 · 17/04/2019 15:11

Love Charlotte & Valentina

Tiramisu1 · 17/04/2019 15:14

Valentina

IggyAce · 17/04/2019 15:15

Valentina or Remi

OldAndWornOut · 17/04/2019 15:16

I like Eden, and yes, Harlow is in Essex, which puts me off, just because it's a place name.

Shadow1234 · 17/04/2019 15:48

Eden and Remi are my favourites.
Prefer Romy to Roma.

HiHoney · 17/04/2019 15:54

Harlow is a town in Essex. Don't use this! Would you call a child Basingstoke or Bilston?

Eden, Charlotte and Valentina are all nice.
Remi and Roma are not so.

Charlotte is my favourite.

Twisique · 17/04/2019 16:00

Charlotte or Valentina. Do you like Henrietta or Vivienne?

JUSTLOOKING20 · 17/04/2019 16:03

Eden - yes, pretty and different
Harlow - Please don't! This is a place and deprived and not a nice place at all (sorry to anyone who comes from Harlow)
Charlotte- beautiful
Remi - no, I just find this really horrible sorry
Valentina - lovely
Roma - I think of the roma people and how discriminated they've been. Personally the connotations are not good ones

Flamingosnbears · 17/04/2019 16:05

Valentina

IvyandStan · 17/04/2019 16:08

I like Charlotte or Eden. Harlow is awful as reminds me of the town(not the nicest of places)

TheRedFox · 17/04/2019 16:10

Yep Harlow is a town in Essex and a pretty grotty one at that. That would put me off.

sleepstealer · 17/04/2019 16:10

Charlotte by a long way.

mcmooberry · 17/04/2019 16:14

Eden and Valentina are my favourites out of that list x

LazyLizzy · 17/04/2019 16:14

Remi. It's lovely.

Harlow reminds me of harlot.

ImHastingsDarling · 17/04/2019 16:39

I would veto Eden, Harlow and Remi as for me they are all boys names.
Eden- I know two and they are both boys (I think it's a boys name in France)
Harlow is awful, but I also have a friend who named their son it so to me it's a boys name
Remi - as above, I know one Remi and he is a lovely little boy

How about Romy instead?
I like Valentina Smile

Expressedways · 17/04/2019 16:40

Charlotte is lovely. The rest of your names are really not to my taste.

KindnessCrusader · 17/04/2019 16:41

Valentina is my favourite!

florascotia2 · 17/04/2019 16:43

Valentina = pretty; Charlotte = nice as well; Eden = makes me think of the Garden of Eden and Eden Project. Both are good things, but not sure if that makes them good names for a person. Harlow = a depressed town; Roma = a minority people that has suffered discrimination; Remi = short form of a word that means 'oarsman' and has been used as a male name for over a thousand years.

stellarfox · 17/04/2019 16:51

I like Eden and Charlotte the most!
