Beautiful girls names - Help!!

[dillytilly]

Hi all,
What’s your opinion of these names? Do you have favourites? Which will stand the test of time / the most beautiful? Can you think of similar? Thank you ! X

Margot
Penelope
Ophelia
Octavia
Caroline
Primrose
Arabella
Eugenie
Elizabeth
Gwyneth
Marigold
Astrid
Grace
Sophie
Gabrielle

I like Elizabeth and Caroline best from your list. Similarly pretty names:

Diana
Christina
Imogen
Francesca
Alexander
Bethany
Lynette

Alexandra, obviously my autocorrect is a man

Margot - sounds like a muppet name to me for some odd reason? not a fan
Penelope - never been a fan, but it is regal and liked by many
Ophelia - not keen
Octavia - intriguing, but not a fav
Caroline - yes, sweet, but slightly inconspicuous
Primrose - eh, it’s growing on me, but to “prim;” I like the alternative Rosemary somewhat
Arabella - despise this name; gaudy
Eugenie - Cute, not a fav
Elizabeth - unremarkable due to its popularity, but classic and agreeable
Gwyneth - I like this
Marigold - not a fan
Astrid - alright, but not my style
Grace - unremarkable, but also inoffensve
Sophie - pretty, but young-sounding to me
Gabrielle - not a fan

My favs are Caroline, Sophie, and Gwenyth. Also, I suggest Josephine! Such a strong, vintage name. Charlotte’s so done, but quite pretty as well.

Nice list :)

It's all very subjective isn't it? To me, some of the names on OP's list are pretty, some are downright ugly. Only one or two I'd consider beautiful. I won't say which fits into each category

To me, Sophie, Elizabeth, Grace and Gabrielle are the names that stand the test of time. I think Margot and Penelope are lovely names which are increasing in popularity so time to come may pinpoint when a child was born.

Other timeless, and not overly fussy, names I like include Imogen, Susan, Alice, Mary, Eleanor, Hannah and Harriet.

How about Genevieve?

I love Primrose but would never be brave enough to use it.

Marigold and Primrose are my favourites. Lovely names and cute shortened.

Love Marigold

I like these best:

Octavia
Primrose
Arabella
Marigold
Grace
Sophie

Just adding Felicity to the suggestions and Cassandra

Adding Aurelia and Aurelie to your list :) love your style

Arabella
Margot
Eugenie
Elizabeth

Margot is about as far from beautiful as it's possible to be! It looks like maggot and is a truly awful geriatric name. From your list, I do like Primrose but the 'prim' bit is a little off-putting.

My favourites from your list:

Margot
Penelope
Ophelia
Arabella
Elizabeth
Grace
Sophie

Some really lovely choices!
Least favourite is Octavia. It's awful. Too try hard posh for me. I know two sisters Octavia and Mungo. 😬

How about

Margaret nn Maggie
Clementine nn Clemmie
Delilah
Jemima
Verity
Pearl

Margot- old librarian
Penelope- like it but a bit plump sounding
Ophelia- ophelia balls.
Octavia too much reminder of things to do with '8'
Caroline- dated and reminds me of 'Roses smell like booboo'
Primrose- lovely but a bit too niche. What if she's a butch lesbian?
Arabella- like. Ara is a nice sound/nickname.
Eugenie- Eugenia Cooney. Not such a nice sound IMO
Elizabeth LOVE this name.
Gwyneth- not a pretty name
Marigold- same as primrose
Astrid- like it
Grace- overdone
Sophie- bit boring
Gabrielle- boyish.

:)

My favourites from your list are Margot and Marigold ❤️

Alethea
Rosamund
Lydia
Isobel
Anouska

Margot - It's a lovely name but I much prefer it spelt without the t at the end.
Penelope - A favourite of mine! Such a beautiful name.
Ophelia - I can't stand the name Ophelia. I immediately think of the word P**ophelia.
Octavia - It's a beautiful yet strong sounding name and it isn't overly common either.
Caroline - I'm torn because I think it's a lovely name but I can't imagine it on someone under 30.
Primrose - I don't hate it but I don't really like it either. People will likely assume she was named after hunger games.
Arabella - So beautiful!
Eugenie - I really don't like it, sorry! Just doesn't sound nice to me.
Elizabeth - Even though it's not my style of name I actually really like it! I know a few Elizabeth's so it's quite common but they are all lovely people.
Gwyneth - Once again, I don't hate it but don't particularly like it either.
Marigold - So beautiful!
Astrid - I don't like Astrid, however, I do like Aspen which is similar.
Grace - I like it as a middle name but not really as a first name.
Sophie - Nice name but I prefer Sofia.
Gabrielle - Also nice but I prefer Gabriella. Gabrielle is too similar to Gabriel for me.

Sorry, not sure why it made random parts in bold... I meant for it to just have the names that way.

I like them all except Sophie dull overused wallpaper name and Arabella as it conjures up certain perception of very aristocratic type not in a good way. Also Primrose as sounds prim and Harold Shipmans wife but like all the others.

Oh Grace is overused and dull too.

How can Penelope be seen as faddish?! It’s a classic several of my mothers friends called it! Really like all the others bar the ones I’ve criticised!

@Whatsyourflava
You know a girl called Mungo?

Love:
Sophie - or Sophia
Grace
Marigold (nn Goldie)
Elizabeth
Ophelia

Please don't use:
Margot - looks like Maggot
Caroline - soooo boring. Carol is also bad.
Gabrielle - like a boy's name turned into a girls name (Nigella, Thomasona etc...)

Octavia, Arabella & Eugenie - all sound a bit pony club (of course this may be what you want?)

The others are just a bit "meh"
