Imogen has always sounded medicinal to me. I like Elise, Honour and Saskia.

Freja (though I prefer Freya) would be my no.1 but it just does go with our surname.

Other than that I think Imogen is beautiful.

Imogen and Honor are the stand outs.

I know two awful Allegras so that put me off.

I like Freja, Saskia and Imogen. Also Alicia but dependings on pronunciation, I only like it pronounced A-Lee-Sia

Great list!!

Alicia - ok, would you pronounce it ‘alissia’ or ‘aleesha’? I’ve heard both but only like the first one.
Allegra - lovely, unusual although could be seen as a bit pretentious
Honour - spell it Honor but love it
Inez - prefer Ines, I think unless you have a Spanish connection it’s a strange choice
Elise - ok
Saskia - love it
Freja - prefer Freya, lovely name
Imogen - lovely classical name

OK, if I had to pick one it would be really hard but I think I would go for Saskia.

I love Allegra! We considered it for our daughter, but we are American and it’s the name of a common allergy medicine.
