Just wanting some other opinions

[BoyWhoScreamedFox]

What do these names evoke in your mind and what are your favourites?

Eve, Lydia, Eloise, Lucy, Anna, Felicity.

Eve - dull, overused. Endless Evies/Eva’s and Evelyn’s. Also blends into the sea of Avas and Ivys. The world does not need even more Evie-Mays or Evie-Roses.

Lydia - really like it, I know two.
Eloise - nice
Lucy - nice, popular, bit bland.
Anna - like it
Felicity - love this

Felicity.. l adore it.
Know of too many with other names..

Felicity has too many syllables, someone will somehow shorten it

I like Lydia, Eloise and Felicity and my favorite is Felicity.

Anna or Lydia are my favourites. Don't dislike any though, good names apart from Felicity which feels a bit wet.

Eve- it feels too boring/ common. Would be a nice middle name though. Felicity is my favourite, and I've always loved Anna and Lucy.
Lydia is kind of nice but I hear the LID very strongly. Plus I think of Aunt Lydia from the Handmaid's tale!
Eloise feels a little try hard/ flouncy to imagine using it in everyday life.

I really like Lydia

For me. Eve Lucy and Anna are very run of the mill names. Names I expect to hear regularly and I personally find a bit dull.

Lydia Eloise and Felicity. Are known names. All bar Felicity are in the top 100 from what I have quickly referenced.

None of them are names that ought to cause a great deal of surprise for people in Engliah speaking countries.

Personally I have a fondness for Eloise (but do prefer Eloisa) the others are not my liking of names.

Thanks for the replies. My faves atm are Felicity and Anna, DH likes Anna and Lucy.

Eve - not a fan, feels a bit boring but I adore Eva

Lydia - I’ve never liked it, it’s always sounded quite harsh to me and reminds me of a medicine or birth control name!

Anna - Really like this. Classic and simple but still feels very pretty and fresh

Lucy - Far too common to a point where it feels dull. Definitely gone past its sell by date. There was a huge influx in the early 00s, 19 year old DD knows too many to count! Lucia is nice and more unique

Eloise - Lovely and quite unusual these days

Felicity - I do like it but it feels a bit overly posh/try hard, not sure!!

Eve - dull, lots of them
Lydia - very now. Not keen
Elouise - a bit of a mouthful and too similar to the millions of Ellies. Like Louisa.
Lucy - rather wet
Anna - ok
Felicity - similar vein to Lydia with lots of silly nn

My favourite is Lucy - pretty, simple, classic, I like the sound of it, nice for all ages

Anna is a close second - classic, fresh and pretty for all ages.

Lydia - lovely too - might get shortened as 3 syllable names often do.

Eloise - love this but she will become Ellie.

Eve - I love this but I think it’s too overused at the moment for my taste

Felicity - sounds pretty but as pp said it might get shortened because it’s 3 syllables - so depends if you like the nn’s (Fliss / Flick / Lissy are nice for a young child but not sure for an adult?)

Eve- think of the woman in the bible
Lydia- biblical, someone sensible, maybe bit plain
Eloise- posh but a bit feisty
Lucy- girl next door, pretty but maybe but wet, Anna- classy, popular, sporty
Felicity- bit aloof, posh, horsey

I’d vote Eloise, Anna second

My favourite is Lucy. I like all the others apart from Felicity.

I like Eloise and Anna, but my favourite is Felicity, I’m biased though as I have a little Felicity.

Anna is nice, Annie is a cute nn
Lucy feels very blah to me or like loo seat
Lydia sounds like idiot
Really don't like Eloise, can't work out why!

Eve - beautiful but Evie, Ava, Eva, Aoife, Niamh, Evelyn are too popular
Lydia - elegant and classic but Lyds.
Eloise - ok but a bit hard to say and the Elouise misspelling is ugly. Prefer Louise.
Lucy - pretty and classic but L names like Lily are too popular
Anna - nice classic, works internationally
Felicity - nice meaning but too long

I know lots of Annas and Hannahs, so seems a bit ordinary

They're all robust classic names. I like them all apart from Eloise which just has too many vowels and is a bit frilly for me! I'm also a bit bored of Eve, there's hundreds of Eve / Evie / Eva's in the graduate population at work and I can't remember who's which variation of the name.....although maybe it's less popular now than it was 20-25 years ago?
My favourite is probably Anna.

I voted Felicity but I am biased as torn between that and another name for my little girl on the way :)

my best friend was called Felicity & we used to call her Flick for short…was cute ☺️

Felicity - love it

Lydia - like it - less popular than Felicity which might make me go for it

Anna - lovely classic but too many Annies - Nancy is a nice shortform though

Lucy - pretty but a bit wet, getting overused

Eve - oh blimey another one

Eloise - oh blimey another Ellie

These are all lovely names and you couldn't go wrong with any of them. My personal preference would be Felicity or Lucy.

Love Anna.
Eve, Lucy and Lydia are nice.
Felicity is OK - I find it a little bit frilly.
Reay dislike Eloise.

Love Anna, Lucy is nice enough, dislike the rest
