Can I change Annabella to Annabelle

Second Sophia

I like Sophia.

I like Sophia, Dorothea, Jemima and Orla.

Not the rest.

Dorothea.

Margot Is decent, not any made up spellings of it.

Also like Jemima Sophia and Tabitha

Sophia, Orla, Jemima

They are all lovely.

You seem to like unusual, slightly frilly, long names. Sophia and Orla are both lovely but don't really fit into that category.

I really don't like Margo. Margaux or Margot are much prettier spellings. Along with Sophia and Orla, it's also a lot more popular than the other names.

Personally, I don't like Belle nor Aurora as much as your other choices. because of the Disney association. I also prefer Belle as a nickname (maybe for Annabella) rather than as a full name, it's a bit too twee for a standalone name.

Dorothea
Jemima
Annabel (not Annabella)
I wouldn't spell Margot 'Margaux'

Tabitha
Jemima
Dorothea (prefer Dorothy though)

Dislike Araminta and Perdita.

The others are all in the middle somewhere.

Perdita is by far the best name on your list, followed by Orla and Tabitha.

My favourite spelling of Margo is Margot, and the name is way too trendy for me. Aurora also fits into this. Jemima is a very racially charged name in the USA so if you plan to spend much time there then I would avoid that.

Sophia….fine, if a little overused.
Dorothea….fine.
Margaux /Margo….spell it “properly” Margot.
Tabitha….fine, but it’s a cats name.
Annabella…very upperclass wannabe.
Aurora…blugh.
Jemima….fine, but Puddleduck.
Araminta….NO.
Belle…I don’t like it.
Anoushka….is she Russian?
Perdita….Pongo and…..
Orla….spell it Órlaith (for me that’s the proper spelling)

Sophia - nice but so overused
Dorothea - much prefer Dorothy
Margaux - horrible spelling
Margo - ok but Margot is popular
Tabitha - not keen
Annabella - Anna and Annabel are much nicer
Aurora - dislike
Jemima - favourite
Araminta - not keen, too long
Belle - End
Anoushka - ok, know a few, all of Indian heritage
Perdita - ok
Orla - nice in an irish accent, otherwise meh

Really love Araminta

Sophia - pretty, but SO overdone it´s almost ruined it
Dorothea - beautiful but a little frilly
Margaux - very nice but becoming very trendy
Margo - see above, although I prefer Margot spelling to either Margo or Margaux
Tabitha - I have a Tabitha and I love this name. I think it´s uncommon but familiar, a little quirky but with a strong and lovely biblical connection. Classic but not dull
Annabella - much prefer Annabelle. Annabella is a too much, becomes a little naff
Aurora - a name which is very beautiful when rare, but which is at risk of becoming naff when very common, which it´s becoming
Jemima - adore, see comments for Tabitha
Araminta - I don´t like this. I just don´t like the sound of it
Belle - pretty but a bit cutesy
Anoushka - like this name, rare and beautiful
Perdita - i don´t like it but it´s not bad
Orla - a little dull compared to the others, but pretty enough

I would choose Dorothea, Anoushka, Tabitha, or Jemima

Dorothea. By miles.

Sophia is wonderful but very overused atm. Orla is nice but isn't it an anglicised version of an Irish name, so perhaps a bit appropriated? I semi-like Anoushka but I believe it's a diminutive and not sure I think a diminutive as a formal name is great.

Not keen at all on any of the others. Perdita stands out as a terrible choice. I know it's Shakespearean but why would you want to call your child 'lost'? Margo and Margaux scream 'trendy'.

Love Perdita and Margot.

Margo, Anoushka, Tabitha

Permits, Dorothea and Araminta .

Permits🤦‍♀️

Perdita

Perdita is terrible. Hate it.
Aurora is hard to say.
Tabitha a cats name.

The others are ok.

Annabel, Margot and Jemima are lovely.
Sophia is nice too. V pop but because it's a nice name.

I really like Aurora as I love the idea of Rory as a nickname :)

Sophia
