Cleo - standout name by far

this next group are fine if a little styalised and unusual:
Beatrix
Ramona
Vita
Xanthe

This last group I don’t like
Gaia
Caro
Hero

Exactly this.

Vita - nice but makes me think of Vitacat, Vita Coco etc. Like Victoria nn VitaCaro - Seems a bit nicknamey. Caroline is nicer
Hero - nice but 'hero piece' etc. Hera better

Cleo, Ramona, Xanthe, Beatrix, Gaia all ok. Don't love any of them

Vita

Beatrix
Gaia
Ramona

Hero
Caro

Personally I’d only consider the first three, with Vita being the standout (really like it and it was on our shortlist). We also seriously considered Gaia when we were expecting DD (was in our top 3) but I think it was pregnancy hormones - so glad we didn’t choose it now!

As much as I do like some of them I think ‘stylised’ is a good word for the list overall - a bit self-consciously cool. Makes a nice change from all the Islas and Olivias though!

1. Cleo
2. Ramona (love the nn Romy or Marnie)
3. Beatrix
4. Caro (would be no. 1 if short for Caroline)
5. Gaia
6. Vita
7. Xanthe
8. Hero (I think this puts a lot of pressure on the child!)

I don't like the others.

Like Gaia and Cleo, plus Caro if actually Caroline.

Cleo, definitely.

personally not a fan of the others.

Beatrix

Great Picks

Gaia - why aren’t there more of these? It’s very popular in Italy and stunning
Xanthe - exotic, elegant and beautiful sounding
Vita - funky nickname that stands up on its own right imo
Beatrix - a quirky yet traditional twist on a classic (Beatrice)
Hero - so romantic sounding, but only if you love your Shakespeare
Cleo - cute but quite cat like for me
Caro - best nn for Caroline but not sure it works as a standalone
Ramona- dislike the “moan” sound

Only like Beatrix. Vita sounds like a biscuit pretending to be healthy.

Xanthe makes me think of some kind of weight loss medication for some reason.

Then the rest

Beatrix is class. Strong and beautiful. Hero if you like your Shakespeare. The rest I'm a bit meh about.

I love Cleo and like Xanthe, not keen on the rest.
