Which do you like best?

Lisa, Lily, Elise, Mia, Ella, Ellie?

I really like Lisa, it stands out from the list as it’s really popular like the others. A PP mentioned Joanna and Laura, I really like them too.

I love Lisa I know people say it’s dated but it’s a lovely name, it’s the only one I like on your list

Elise and Ella

The Elisa I knew was of Italian heritage and pronounced it El-eesa. I think most people would pronounce it that way too, as I’d expect Elissa pronunciation to be spelled like that iyswim.

Lisa, simply because the other names are really really common. Lisa is pretty and definitely would be a nice comeback name.

Lisa is very dated, not a fan.

Lily and Mia both lovely.

Elise

Lisa is feminine, easy, and underused. Not sure what dates means as names go in cycles, but I do think Lisa is both sweet and holds up. Very pretty, imo

How about Melissa, with Lissa as a nn?

I don't mind Lisa, your other choices are pretty but feel a bit past their peak iyswim.

Lisa would be very cool! Dated at the moment but at the forefront of the likely eventual come back.

Melissa will be Mel most likely

Oh definitely Lisa! It sounds so fresh compared to the others which are massively overdone and due to crash and burn. Although I will suggest Elise, as I have a colleague with that name and it reminds me of Lisa (pronounced as in rhymes with lease). Louise is another suggestion that is probably due a come back and sounds fresher for a baby than Lily/Ella etc

I think Lisa is a really lovely name and hugely underused now. At work it is the only name on your list without multiple repetitions across every year ofthe school

I like Lisa

I like Lisa, it would be refreshing to find a little Lisa these days. But the rest are sooooo popular.

I teach teens and there so many of the names you mention - and they were prob the first to be called those so many more have followed .
Pretty names but well used
Lisa sounds fresh
What about
Liza
Lia
Lena
Lara
For similar sounds

Which do you like best?

Lisa, Lily, Elise, Mia, Ella, Ellie?

I like Elisa and would say it El-ee-sah - only trouble is she’ll likely end up one of a billion Ellies.
Elise sounds more dated

How about Estella?

Mia, Ellie/Ella, and Lily are all equally insanely popular so I wouldn’t. Lisa sounds dated, but more to the point blurs with the endless Lara/Lola/Leila/Leah/Lila/Lena/Lyras so I’d avoid that too.

Got any others?!

Love Elise, I only know one.

Lily/Ella/Mia/Ellie are so popular and overused. Ella is just really wet sounding, to me.

Lily is my favourite, I wouldn't worry about the popularity but that's just me

Lisa is so nice and works so well internationally. It might be dated in the uk but it is defo making a comeback in the nordic countries/netherlands/germany etc.

Elise 🙂

How about Elisa or Eliza if you like Lisa?

Eloise? Eliza is cute too

They're all pretty names, Lisa is very 1980s, it makes me think of blue eyeshadow and huge hair sprayed hair flick fringes that the Lisas I knew at the time had.

In order of preference

Lily - lovely
Lisa - very pretty and due a comeback. It would be refreshing to meet a young Lisa
Elise - quite like
Ella/Ellie/Mia - flimsy and overused
