I like Teleri. I grew with several Eleri classmates (in Wales) and liked the name, but then found Teleri in Lord of the Rings which was an Elvish name linked to Eleri. I think it's pretty.

@ShinyMe I am almost 40 and there were several girls called Teleri in school/the area. It’s a really nice name. I love Carys.

@MysteryBelle I read the Madeline Miller novel ‘Circe’ during the first lockdown so I might not recall correctly but I seem to remember thinking they deserved to be turned into pigs….. 🤔

My daughter isn't called this because I'm just not the kind of person who calls their daughter Angelica, but Angelica.

One of my daughters is called Angelica. I obviously absolutely love it 😍

Showing yourself up there. Or do you think traditional Hebrew names are somehow very pretentious?

Wellthereweare · 11/03/2023 22:00

I have a Seraphina and Lavinia and still love them.

Persephone

The most beautiful name. Always my favourite

Exhaustedpanda · 11/03/2023 22:14

Persephone has always been my favourite name, I would definitely use for a daughter.
I also love Ariadne, Calliope, Andromeda and Xanthe

Zillahhh · 11/03/2023 22:25

Obvs Zillah is the most rocking girls name 💪

when I was about 10 I knew a 3years old cheeky blond tot with this name. She had this boyish bowl cut and awakened maternal instinct in me. I’m 40 and I’ve loved the name my whole life. If I’m ever blessed with a girl, I’ll be sure to burden her with name 😂

Isolde is lovely

Also a fan of the name Isolde, but the goblin in my head always comes out with "I sold her" in a thick Cockney accent, so it's a no go sadly!

Op are you going to analyse these responses? So many names seem to end with the “a” syllable. Which is interesting
