Which girls name do you prefer?

[Blondeieee]

Trying to decide on a name and we really can’t choose, Im thinking I want a name which is l longer and formal ish to put on the bc but with a nickname to call her everyday, so far I like: Harriet (hattie), Olivia (Liv), Annabel (Belle), Isabella (bella) and Abigail (Abi).
Which ddo you prefer and why?
Thanks 😊

Whilst I do like Liv, Olivia is done to death at this point.
Annabel I dislike because I've met many snooty ones and I think it sounds a bit frilly.
I like Isabella, less popular than it was a few years ago which is good. Popularity isn't too important of course but nobody wants a name thst is overused!
Harriet I like, definition of a classic!
Abigail, a classic and very underused now. Might be refreshing?

They're all lovely names but I really like Harriet, it is my daughter's middle name too so pretty biased here!

They're all nice!

But I would pick Harriet

They're nice and what I would call 'pony girl' names. I like Abigail and Harriet best, I like the nicknames Abby and Harry.

Harriet for me. The others are just a bit more popular here and i prefer the nns.

Annabel. Shortened to Ana or belle.
Hattie is gross. Isabelle is overdone.
Abigail has Gail, which is dreadful

Harriet nn Hattie. Lovely, not too popular, easy to spell and pronounce.

I also really like Annabel, but not Belle. Annabel nn Annie would be lovely.

Harriet is a very nice name. It's not modern but it's not old. I'm not personally keen on the others as most make it into the top baby names of recent, they'll wear out quickly. I was recruiting last week and looking through the CVs I could almost tell you when each person was born by their name - overused and out of fashion!! I think Harriet is understated and beautiful.

Also does anyone have any suggestions of names of a similar style?

I wouldn't use Annabelle or Isabelle as the Belle names are hugely popular already, and the same goes for Olivia.
So Harriet would be my choice.

I like Harriet and Annabel if left as it is or shortened to Annie. Belle is too Disney princess for my liking.

I like Harriet best!
How about Jemima? Chloe? Cleo? Martha? Clementine? Delilah? Holly? Margot

Ottilie /Ottie instead of Olivia?

Eliza

Felicity

Really don't get the Mumsnet obsession with Ottilie. It's dreadful. Never come across anyone called this in real life.

I like Harriet best out of your list, the others are very popular too.

Georgina/Georgia
Henrietta/Henri
Charlotte/Charlie or Lottie

I like all of your list except the nickname Belle. My favourite is Olivia.

I think they are lovely, but 2 of them are my girls names so perhaps I'm biased 😂

As additions, what about Francesca (cesca), Felicity (Fliss) Elizabeth (Libby)?

Abigail

Harriet shortened to Hattie is lovely.

Henrietta shortened to Hetty?

Matilda shortened to Tilly?

Harriet and Abigail are my favourites from your list. I prefer names that don't end with an ee' or 'uh' sound but also like these two because they don't feel overused. Alice, Madeleine, Florence, Ellen, Rachel and Robyn are others that might work.

I like them all apart from Olivia.

@Blondeieee Harriet is my favourite from your list by a mile. Manages to be both cute on a little one and elegant on a lady, feminine but not frilly, spunky and would equally suit a tomboy or a girly girl. Not overused either but everyone knows it. Beautiful name x

I really like Abigail
