In order, 1 is the worst and 10 is best.

Please add any comments and associations next to each as well. This is my list!

Noellia
Juliette
Evalina (evah-leena)
Elara
Hestia
Hera
Juniper
Ginevra
Elowen

Maddalena is spelt wrong. Every single person is going to spell it with one "d".

Madalena. Was a typo!

Noellia - no opinion

Juliette - associated with Romeo and Juliet

Evalina - name of a children's hospital

Elara - mmm ( no opinion)

Hestia - a Greek god

Hera - a Greek god

Juniper - berries for gin

Ginevra - a horse

Elowen - no opinion

Madalena - someone I met who was nice and helpful.

Noellia - 2
Juliette - 3
Evalina - 3
Elara - 4
Hestia - 1
Hera - 1
Juniper - 1
Ginevra - 1
Elowen - 1
Madalena - 2

To be completely honest I don't like any of them. They're all either too out there, too frilly, or spelt in a non-traditional way which will lead to a lifetime of them being misspelt.

@lotusclover which ones would you say fits each of those? E.g. which ones are frilly and which are out there?

You mean order them? Or rate them?
Juniper (best)
Juliette
Hera
Evalina
Ginevra
Elowen
Hestia
Elara
Madalena
Noellia (Worst)

Noellia - 1 never heard it before, dislike!
Juliette - 9 pretty, like a lot
Evalina - 5 meh, not got much to say, average
Elara - 7 quite nice actually, potentially would grow on me
Hestia - 2 don't like the sound of it, quite harsh
Hera - 6
Juniper - 10 my top choice. Pretty and unusual without being too weird.
Ginevra- 4
Elowen - 5
Madalena - 6

@EveryoneLoves09876 I find Noellia and Madalina too frilly, whereas Noelle and Madeleine are lovely. Hestia, Hera, Juniper and Ginevra are a bit out there for me. I quite like Juliet (spelt the traditional way). Elara is actually quite pretty too but it looks a bit made up.

I don't like any of them, sorry.

Juliet (this spelling) is the only one that is OK.

1 Hestia
2 Ginevra
3 Noellia

4 Maddalena
5 Elara
6 Elowena
7 Juniper
8 Evalina
9 Juliette
10 Hera

To be honest, I don't like any of them except maybe Hera.

@goo either!

Thanks everyone! No one ever tells you this stuff in real life.

@peperethecat haha no problem! I find it really interesting to see what people think.

I think what I don't like about them is that they are too fussy and frilly.

If you'd said Juliet, Noelle, Madeleine/Magdalena, Elena/Lara, Elowen, Juno, Evelyn, I'd like the list a lot more. But it seems like you're adding frilly bits for the sake of it, which isn't to my taste.

Juliet is the only one I like.

The others are all quite sore and sorcery, fantasy style names.

Posted too soon; here are my comments

Juniper (best) - the best known, probably, but still unusual. Shortens nicely to Juno/June. Suits all ages. Best of the bunch.
Juliette - frilly. Like how it sounds but would spell Juliet.
Hera - I would assume the person is Greek, for obvious reasons. Also, wasn’t she Zeus’ wife AND sister? Not convinced.
Evalina - trendy, due to the “Eva” part. Feels a bit made-up but I generally like it.
Ginevra - only okay because she’ll be “Ginny”. Feels pretentious to me.
Elowen - isn’t this from Lord of the Rings? It’s okay but don’t love it.
Hestia - very fusty, musty, old-lady name...
Elara - Ella? Lara?
Madalena - if this were Magdalena, it would be number one by a country mile! But Madalena just sounds made up again. Madeleine? Mad Elena? No.
Noellia (Worst) - also feels like a mismash. Noel? Noelle? Ella? I would hate to be called this myself (apologies to anyone with the name!)

I don’t like any of them but I love Juliet.

Juliette is my favourite by miles (prefer Juliet).

I really like Lara but not keen on Elara.

Juniper and Madalena are ok.

Not keen on the others. Evalina is pretty but I do think of the hospital.

They are all a 1. Sorry. Just not nice names. None of them roll of the tounge. If you have to. Juliet.

How about Noelina?

@Goostacean Madalena is Spanish and Noellia is Greek but fair enough

Noellia - haven’t heard of this, sounds like a contraceptive
Juliette - Romeo, like it a lot
Evalina - children’s hospital in London
Elara - I prefer Lara which is probably won’t most people will hear it as anyway
Hestia - Greek mythology but it’s harsh sounding
Hera - Greek mythology, I like it
Juniper - gin
Ginevra - Geneva in Switzerland
Elowen - neutral about this, doesn’t make me think of anything in particular
Madalena - quite like this but may be shortened to Maddy and blend in with Madeleine’s and Maddison’s

Juliette or Hera are definitely my favourites

Noellia - I’m not sure, I think it would grow on me. 6 maybe?
Juliette - 4
Evalina (evah-leena) - 8
Elara - Same as Noellia 6
Hestia - 1
Hera - 1, harsh as above.
Juniper - 5 Reminds me of pink gin! Not a bad thing!
Ginevra - Same as above coincidently! 5
Elowen - 1
Madalena - 7

Sorry these aren't really to my taste either 🙈
I like Juno though (potential shortening of Juniper)
I'm also not keen on overly frilly names with loads of unnecessary syllables
Elowen I think will get shortened to Elle or something similar and there's a lot of Eve/Evie/Elle type names so that would put me off if you're wanting a name that's a bit different
