Jessica - husbands favourite girl name
Arabella - too princessy
Isabella - like it

Ella - too many of them but pretty
Bethany - went to school with a Bethany who was not very nice
Olivia - not keen
Primrose - not my taste

Clara and Caitlin are my favourites by a mile.

Really dislike Arabella and Primrose, they sound incredibly drippy.

I wouldn't use Ella or Bella on their own - short for Isabella is fine.

Caitlin
Ella
Bethany

My faves from your list. I go by saying them out loud as though introducing myself and imagining what I'd prefer to be called.

87Callista · 30/04/2020 20:35

Oh and Jessica! That's my favourite

Spied · 30/04/2020 20:36

In order, I like:

I really like Clara, Caitlin, Olivia and Arabella. I prefer Isabel to Isabella, but both are fine, as is Jessica and Bethany, though again, I prefer Bethan.
