Shortlist - girls

We're looking for a timeless girls name - what are your thoughts on these;

Margot
Olive
Cecelia (Cece)
Matilda
Etta
Florence

Margot and Cecilia. Don't think the spelling Cecelia goes.

Margot - like, was DH first choice for no 2, but I didn’t want to use with our surname
Olive - loved this for a few years, seem to be a few cropping up
Cecelia (Cece) - like
Matilda - love, our name for upcoming no 2, was put off for ages by it’s popularity surge, but I’ve decided I don’t care anymore
Etta - not my cup of tea
Florence - beautiful

I don't think most of those are timeless at all as they are names that have only recently come back into fashion. Timeless is surely a name that is in continual use and not subject to the vagaries of trends - Emma, for example.

I don't really like any of them except Florence but Olive is especially awful.

I love Olive!

Margot is cool, Cecelia also (i would shorten to cecy instead of cece). Like Florence as well. Etta might be a no if the terrorist group thing is true! Matilda great and literary. Olive I don’t love probably because of olive oyl...
