Juliette or Esme?

Baby girl due in June and we were set on the longest time on Esme, a long time favourite.

But this weekend someone from my family mentioned Juliette and I love the name!

It helps I am French, so a nod to my heritage (although Esme is as well).

DH loves Juliette and really likes Esme.

Which one is your favourite and why?

DD1 is Lucy

thanks!

I have a name with lots of short forms. I'm always known by my full name. The only Juliette I know is known by her full name. Nobody has to accept a diminutive.

I love Juliette Esmee - and, if it helps, I have a friend called Juliet and her name has never been shortened.
