I don’t like any of them.

Bryony?

EurghCobwebs · 24/11/2021 09:24

Unless you have an Italian surname I think Francesca is going to sound weird.

emmathedilemma · 24/11/2021 09:55

I really like Emily and Chloe but Francesca is too frilly for me.

CoffeeAndCaramel · 24/11/2021 09:56

LOVE Francesca x

wingsofabird · 24/11/2021 10:02

love Emily and Chloe
Don't like Francesca

KirstenBlest · 24/11/2021 10:37

Emily - I much prefer Emma but it's ok
Chloe - don't like it. Know too many, all get called Chlo
Francesca - too frilly for me and I don't like Frankie or Chess a nn

sageandbasil · 24/11/2021 10:39

Chloe is the only one I like from those sorry. They have quite a 90s vibe so maybe

Emma
Lucy
Sophie/Sophia
Alice

17caterpillars1mouse · 24/11/2021 11:04

I actually like all of them. If I had to order them (finding it quite difficult actually)

Francesca - NN Chesca not Frankie
Chloe
Emily - I think I prefer Emily as a middle name because it is just so popular and has been for a long time now

Emily

Don't like Chloe or Francesca

Emilia? Esme? Rosa/Rosie?

roadwarrior · 24/11/2021 11:19

Francesca is my favourite.

JessyCarr · 24/11/2021 11:24

Emily is my favourite.

Suggestion: Zoe

Edenember · 24/11/2021 11:29

Francesca, followed by Chloe, then Emily

DotDotDotDotDot · 24/11/2021 11:33

I love Francesca and all the possible nicknames, apart from maybe Fran.
I strongly dislike Chloe, not sure why really, can a name be annoying?
Emily is nice enough, Emmeline is a bit more interesting to me.
Suggestions Rafaela/Raffaella or Isabel/Isabella.

AdaColeman · 24/11/2021 11:41

Francesca is my favourite, a lovely, little used name.

Emily is pretty, but a lot of very similar names are so popular just now that it doesn’t have that ‘stand out’ quality to me.

WakeUpLockie · 24/11/2021 11:44

All quite 90s so

Gabriella
Alyssa
Ellie
Lucy
Louisa
Zoe

Also like Cleo but it's having a moment so in 20 years might be 'very 20s'.

MimiSunshine · 24/11/2021 12:39

Francesca

Not keen on Emily or Chloe TBH.

How about Josephine I like Bryony too

Happenchance · 24/11/2021 12:43

Francesca

Other suggestions: Lucinda or Lucia

idontlikealdi · 24/11/2021 12:43

Love them all but Francesca will become Fran which I don't like
