What do you think of following for baby girl? My SO thinks they are all fine, but refuse to pinpoint his favorite. I prefer Cordelia, but worry Rosabelle or Rosamund might be better choices

Isabella
Cordelia
Rosabelle
Rosamund
Emmeline

middle name is planned to be Thisbe, Giselle, Bridget or Esther, whatever sounds right with first name.

I only like Emmeline and Esther but not sure if they go. Strongly dislike Thisbe!

I like Isabelle and Rosabelle most but the others are ok too.

I really like Isabella, Emmeline and Rosamund. I quite like Cordelia. Rosabelle is a little too frilly for my tastes but I don't mind it really.

Have you considered Rosalie?

Love all your middle names, especially Giselle. I’d have one of those as the first name.

I like Rosamund, but dislike the others on your first name list.

I LOVE Rosabelle! I can't understand why it's not more popular.

I love Cordelia and the fact there are so many nicknames you can use: Cora, Cordi, Coco, Delia, Dee, Lia etc :)

I like Cordelia, love Cora but I really dislike Delia so would hate it if it was shortened to that in school. I rem a school mate's Mum coming into address class (we were abt 7/8) to insist her daughter's name was Eliza and not to use Lizzie as it was NOT her name. I rem at that age thinking she shouldn't have named her that if she didn't like the possible variations.

Emmeline is very nice also...

I don't like Rosabelle, Rosamund is just ok.
.
Not on your list ....but i love Rosalind.
I also very much like Adeline, Ottilie

I don't like Esther at all, I never have. I don't know why. i do like Essie. Bridget is ok but feels elderly to me.

Thisbe is different...greek mythology & a constellation (I think).

You'll know what fits when you see her.... best of luck to you.
