Which of these is poshest?

[Dramagirl22]

Hi! I’m a 3rd year English Lit student writing (my first!!) play.
Which of these names is poshest? And if none, what are posh girls names please?

Claudia
Calliope
Beatrice

Beatrice is the poshest, then Calliope. I dont think claudia is posh

I’d recommend having a good read of the Telegraph’s birth announcements. The ‘poshest’ baby I currently know is called Cosima

Definitely Calliope

Araminta
Lettuce
Allegra
Persephone

Beatrice.
Consider Camilla, Penelope, Sara, Fiona.

Araminta - Minty
Henrietta - Hen,
Cressida
Arabella
(Looks like names ending in a)
Bibi - short for Vivienne

Ime

The poshest woman in the country is named Elizabeth.

Lettuce?! Is that a typo?

Persephone
Arabella

Calliope - I know how to say it but I have to really focus!
Also
Clemency
Fenella

It’s Lettice, not Lettuce

Haha, my niece is Beatrice. I must tell her she's posh!

In my experience posh girls are

Hatty
Phoebe
Flora
Penny
Claudia
Charlotte

and I know of one Periwinkle!

Elizabeth with the nickname Buffy is the poshest person I ever met. I didn’t realise it was a nickname for Elizabeth because I’m not posh enough. 😂

I like Claudia best even though it seems to be ranked 3rd!
It's the prettiest

Depends what you mean, some of the poshest people I know don't go by actual names but bonkers nn.
Real names Ottilie, Allegra and Camilla.

Calliope is the most unusual.
Claudia is the least posh.

Read Jilly Cooper to get a good sense of posh names.

Suggestions-
Bunty
Cressida
Tabitha
Olympia
Perdita

I think the issue with Calliope is a lot of people won't know how to say it, which is distracting as a reader and somewhat subsequently dilutes the poshness vibe.

Look at the girls in Made in Chelsea or Tatler - it's all about being named Alexandra but known as Binky, or similar.

There's a posh woman who does Instagram stories whose daughter is called Calypso. I think that sounds quite posh, in a kind of West London Amanda from Motherland kind of way.

Girls I knew at school had nn like Bags, Tals, Flic

Most nothing like their names!

Makes me think of the ice lolly. Wouldn't see as 'posh at all!

Pigs
Florrie
Tiggy
Boo
Rara

Are all nicknames used by girls at my dds very posh school

I love this thread!!
I am not posh but my DDs name is here several times, along with my friends DDs names!
And my niece has one of the suggested nicknames but that's because of an inability to say her name properly when she was really small and it just stuck!!

So how do you pronounce Calliope?

I've never heard of it so would say

Call e oh pea

Anywhere near?

Venetia
Araminta
Allegra
Lettice
Tomasina
