A few girls names

[17caterpillars1mouse]

What are your thoughts on the following girls names

Morag

Millicent

Iona

Beatrix

Agnes

Sybil

Viola

I love Millicent and Beatrix.

Morag - behave yourself. No. Morven, Merryn, Mirren, Manon are all ok

Millicent - a bit twee and she’ll be yet another Milly

Iona - love it

Beatrix - it’s ok. Prefer Beatrice

Agnes - really like it

Sybil - quite like it

Viola - quite like it. Yolanda is nicer I think

Morag - ok
Millicent - ok, sounds a bit like Militant though
Iona - depends on the surname, might sound silly
Beatrix - prefer Beatrice, I say them as Bee-uh-tricks and Bee-uh-triss
Agnes - ok
Sybil - ok
Viola - ok. Vee-ola or Vie-oh-la?

Morag sorry but it is an ugly name and I just see rag. I have know 2 and both I just felt sorry for them with that name.
Agnes - I also see this as quite an ugly name. somewhere in my mind it appears as a blend between a algae, stagnant and fungus. Sorry I am probably really strange but it always appears to me like that
Sybill- Sorry also dislike
Millicent, Iona, Beatrix and Viola all fine.

Morag I like best.
Sibyl I love spelt the original way.
Beatrix is cute

Iona and Agnes are okay

I don't find Millicent or Viola a favourite, I'm sorry.

Morag - nice, I would assume you have Scottish (or Welsh?) connections

Millicent - quite like this

Iona - nice, again Scottish

Beatrix - prefer Beatrice, but nice

Agnes - sorry, no,

Sybil - okay, but not my taste, gaining popularity due to Downton Abbey

Viola - okay, but not my taste

A real mixture of names.

@Riverlee , Morag isn't Welsh, but Iona (pr Yonna) is, but it's not the same as scottish Iona.

Morag is dreadful. I am not overkeen on any on uour list. Iona is reasonable.

Iona and Beatrix are really nice. I would have them on my list but doesn't go with surname, unfortunately.

Morag has to be the worst name ever (and I'm Scottish so not an anti-Scottish thing). Sorry, but I can't think of a worse name. Milicent and Agnes aren't nice either. I really don't think a girl will thank you for such names. I think being on naming boards you can end up really bored of names like Sophia, Isla, Olivia etc but I'd much rather have a nice but common name like those than something like Morag.

Morag - no. Very ugly, harsh sounding name.

Millicent - quite a 'big' name for a child. I don't dislike it but she'd have to be a Millie with the full name rarely used.

Iona - lovely

Beatrix - love. Considered it for my DD.

Agnes - I actually quite like this name but wouldn't be able to bring myself to use it. Middle name maybe.

Sybil - no

Viola - this is pretty but I only like one pronunciation and the dangers of different pronunciations would put me off. I like it pronounced VI-o-la. Vi-O-la I don't like as much. And Vee-O-la is a musical instrument. But I met a little girl with the name once (and this is the only one I've ever met) and her Mum pronounced it VI-la - she didn't pronounce the 'o' at all so it just sounded like the word 'viler' as in more vile which was hideous.
