Love... Rosa, Martha, Cassia, all beautiful
Like... Naomi, Beatrix, Maria, Marianna, Edith, Stella (would love Stella if it weren't for Stella Artois spoiling it just a tiny bit!)
On the fence about Tess, I love Tessa but Tess and especially Therese seem very serious and solemn to me!

Not a fan of..

  • Constance (sounds like Constant, which to my mind is not really a positive thing, sounds like constant headache, constant nagging etc)
-Tallulah (sounds overly frivolous and reminds me of that girl named Tallullah does the Hula from Hawaii. And Bugsy Malone) -Mary (again, sounds old and sombre to me, and the only Mary in my year at school was nicknamed Virgin Mary or just Virgin) -Virginia (see above, only more so. Also sounds too much like vagina imo) -Lucia, nothing wrong with it per se, just don't like how it sounds although I love the name Lucy. But would wonder people would get pronunciation confused- Lu-chi-a or Lu-ssi-a? -Paloma, not a fan.. dare I say it sounds kind of notiony 😬and reminds me of Palmolive despite Paloma Faith

Sorry don't mean to be harsh with any of my comments! Think the majority are lovely names

I have exactly the same opinion as this!

All are fine by me except for Constance, Paloma and Tallulah.
Not crazy about Rosa, Cassia, Martha or Lucia, but they are ok.
Best: Stella, Maria, Marianne (not Marianna) Naomi. Also like Theresa/Therese - rather old fashioned, but due for a comeback.
