Adelaide - like, and Adelene or Adeleine or Adele
Alexandra - lovely
Alice - like
Estella - pint of
Georgia - ok
Juliet - love
Lauren - ok, like Laurel too
Lois - always think Lane, Superman

What about Alexia? (Might be biased as I have a friend called that who is an amazing, strong, creative woman called that!)
Lexie/Lexy/Lex as nn

What a lovely, refreshing list

Adelaide - beautiful name, me considered it for our second daughter.

Alexandra - a lovely classic, I like Alex, Zandra and Andie as a nn just not Lexi

Alice - lovely, though not quite as lovely as your other names

Estella - love it, makes me think of great expectations

Georgia - nice but like Alice not quite as lovely

Juliet - not a fan

Lauren - lovely and underused now
Lois - I want to like it but it reminds me of the family guy lady. I'm sure if I actually met a little Lois I'd soon forget that though. It has a lovely sound

Lydia - beautiful
Verity - lovely

My favourite three are Adelaide, Estella and Lydia

Adelaide - interesting, not come across many, pretty
Alexandra - nice
Alice - nice
Estella - I prefer Estelle or Stella but I do like this
Georgia - I really dislike this. Where I live this is the very opposite of classy. I do like both Georgina and Georgiana
Juliet - nice
Lauren - I don't like this. It's so 90s.
Lois - it's ok. I like the sound of it but not the look
Lydia - lovely
Verity - lovely

I would pick Lydia or Verity or Estelle if it was an option.
