Elizabeth because it’s timeless but has so many lovely shortenings too. Libby, Eliza, Lizzie, Betty etc. I think with Marcella and Lucie it will forever be mispronounced and/or she will be correcting the spelling.
If she turns out to be a stunning red head then Autumn would be lovely...otherwise not so sure.

Love Autumn and also Winter for girls names.

Elizabeth - nice but I prefer shortened version Libby but not Lizzie or Beth

Lucie - is again nice but prefer Lucia

Marcella - ooooo not sure if I like it or hate it?

Autumn - my favourite out of them

I'm Elizabeth and get Liz or Lizzie I'd much rather be a Marcella or a Phyllida anything other than Liz

I’m always a bit surprised by the love for Elizabeth. Any I know don’t really like their name. Perhaps if you like the shortenings just call them one as their given name. Eliza is lovely and feels more current without being trendy. I love Autumn best

Autumn - This is my favourite. It has a lovely sound to it and I like that it is a little different.
Lucie - A cute name, I actually prefer the spelling of it as opposed to 'Lucy'. I think it sounds more modern
Marcella - Lovely name. It sounds French.
Elizabeth - It's ok, a non - offensive name. I don't love it, I don't hate it.

I like Elizabeth and Lucy but not Lucie.

Autumn is a bit 'meh' to me.

Not so keen on Marcella. Nothing wrong with it, but I've not heard it before. Also it makes me think of Marcel the monkey from friends.

DoctorBambino · 17/02/2021 17:29

Marcella - not keen, people will say it wrong
Lucie - prefer Lucy lovely name
Elizabeth - ok but old fashioned and boring
Autumn - love it but much more out there than your other choices

I like Autumn and Marcella. I actually prefer Lucie spelled like this but still a bit boring. Elizabeth to me is one of the most boring names out there, I think it's used a lot as there are so many shortening but I don't know any Elizabeths that like their full name (and many that don't like their shortened version.

I love Autumn ❤️ I think it's a gorgeous name with lovely connotations. It's one of my favourite names.
I don't like Elizabeth. I find it too old fashioned and a bit frumpy.
I like modern names. Autumn isn't faddy, it's never peaked on baby name lists in decades so not sure why ppl are saying that.

Anystarinthesky · 17/02/2021 21:33

I like Elizabeth and Lucie.

TheGoodEnoughWife · 17/02/2021 22:23

Would have liked Marcella but we are currently binging the T.V show and the character is challenging. Although fiesty and I like that so not sure.

Lucie spelt Lucy.

Elizabeth - don't really like.

Autumn - nope, season not a name imo.

Love Autumn, but only feels apt for an Autumn baby. Elizabeth my second choice, classic and beautiful but more for a middle.
