Sophie is my favourite

KylieCharlene · 06/11/2022 11:25

Holly is my favourite, closely followed by Sophie- both timeless, suit all ages. Pretty yet feisty.
Charlotte is a bit meh.
Georgie- just a 'No' from me.

Cheeseandlove · 06/11/2022 11:28

Holly and Sophie. Charlottes alright. Not a fan of Georgie at all.

pilates · 06/11/2022 11:30

They’re all ok but if I had to choose it would be Charlotte

SkylightSkylight · 06/11/2022 11:31

I like Georgie (BC Georgia)
I like Charlie/Lottie (BC Charlotte)

i prefer Sophia to Sophie, but Sophie us ok too, but I'd end up calling them 'sofe' and I'm not keen.

Don't like Holly.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 06/11/2022 11:47

Sophie
Holly
Georgie - but only as an abbreviation for Georgia, Georgina etc
Charlotte

Fivebeanchilli · 06/11/2022 11:53

Charlotte is my favourite.
Sophie and Georgie are equal for me. I know too many Sophies to really love it and I prefer Georgiana to Georgie.
I don't like Holly which I find very dull.

sopeas · 06/11/2022 11:54

Mumsnet seem to love Holly but I honestly find it so bland and boring and I’ve known a few bratty adults called Holly let alone children so maybe that’s why I don’t like it at all.

Sophie is timeless as is Charlotte but I’m sure you’ll get people on here saying how Charlotte contains the word Harlot 🤷🏼‍♀️ I also like Sophia but I feel it’s very popular at the moment so Sophie would make a nice change.

Georgie is a nickname. If you like it go for something like Georgia, Georgina or Georgiana.

urrrgh46 · 06/11/2022 12:55

Charlotte (as long as it's NEVER shortened to Charlie or worse Charli as my cousin spells it!) Lottie as a nn is much prettier. I like Charlotta too.
Holly is also quite pretty especially for a Winter born baby imo.
Not keen on Sophie or Georgie. Like Georgina though.

KirstenBlest · 06/11/2022 13:12

Georgie - yes if short for Georgina or Georgia. Not keen on Georgiana
Charlotte - yes, but don't like Charlie for a girl
Holly - ok, but Polly and Molly are nicer. Not keen on nature names
Sophie - much prefer it to Sophia. Would be happy to use it

emmathedilemma · 06/11/2022 13:18

Charlotte is my favourite.
holly is ok
sophie is nice but really popular
i don’t like Georgie at all, Georgia is just about ok but Georgie is too cutesy nicknamey

WellWhoWouldHaveThought · 06/11/2022 13:19

Holly.

I know so so many Charlottes, Sophie is a bit dull and hugely popular and Georgie is a nickname. Prefer Georgia.

DramaAlpaca · 06/11/2022 13:25

Sophie is my favourite, followed by Charlotte.

Holly is bland and I don't like Georgie at all.

bewarethetides · 06/11/2022 13:26

Holly is too 'Christmas-y' for me, tbh.
Prefer Sophia to Sophie.
I've never understood 'Georgie' since it's derived from George, which is a rather dull boy's name.
Charlotte is nice, but there are loads of them.

They're all common but bland girls' names. Imagine you can't really go 'wrong' with any of them...

MrsWarboysHandGrenade · 06/11/2022 13:28

I really love them all apart from Charlotte - in order of preference it would be Georgie, Sophie, Holly, Charlotte

coniston19 · 06/11/2022 13:35

They are all nice names - personally wouldn't choose Georgie but that's just me. Yes they are popular but if you like them, choose one!

Surely it’s up to your cousin? I’m a Charlotte and spell my nn ‘Charley’, my DF hates Lottie (as do I) so I don’t use it 🤷‍♀️

Thisisnotmyname2 · 06/11/2022 14:46

I like them all but Georgie seems like a nickname to me. Prefer Georgia. Favourite is Sophie unless you are due in December and then I'd use Holly.

Theoldwoman · 06/11/2022 14:46

Charlotte by 1000%

SallyWD · 06/11/2022 14:48

I love Charlotte
I don't like Georgie but I love Georgia
I find Sophie quite wet
Holly's ok

Luredbyapomegranate · 06/11/2022 14:49

Love Georgie, as long as it’s short for Georgia / Georgiana. Too nicknamey as a full name, especially as unisex.

like Sophie

Love Charlotte - but done to death so I wouldn’t

I think Holly is twee

ChakaKhanfan · 06/11/2022 14:49

Love Holly (my best friends name and she is awesome)
Sophie is nice
Charlotte is ok
Georgie makes my skin crawl sorry!!!!!

Mama2023 · 06/11/2022 14:50

Thank you everyone for your replies, I find your thoughts really interesting. I probably should have said Georgie would have a full name like Georgina. I also forgot one!! 🙈 We also have Lucy as an option

User6761 · 06/11/2022 15:03

I really like Georgina, which is weird as I don't like the boys name George. I probably prefer Gina as a shortening.

Lucy is also great. Not so keen on the others.

Luredbyapomegranate · 06/11/2022 15:23

In that case Georgina nn Georgie

Lucy is a bit wet
