Strong, classic, girls names not in top 100-please feedback on my list!

[Orinkol]

Current shortlist:

Rosalind Ivy
Theodora Rose
Georgiana Alice
Guinevere Rebecca
Josephine Ivy

Please pick your favourites and if you don't like any of them please feel free to suggest an alternative!

Have you read The Chalet School series op? All your names sound very much like characters from those ( posh 1940's/50's girls).
You should look them up as there's loads of under used, interesting names in them.

Here, fandom has these. There was definitely a Rosalind too.

I quite like Kitty myself (although might be unfortunately nicknamed today)

Georgiana - just makes me thing of cheese for some reason Gorgonzola parmigiana?

Rest are nice.

Persephone
Jocelyn
Thomasina
?

Thanks for all these responses!

Theodora, Georgiana and Guinevere are crossed out now!

Husband loves Josephine, I love Rosalind, both still in the running but would like to choose one we both love!

There are some really good suggestions on the thread! I like Marianne, Beatrix, Cassandra (maybe not keen on the mythology of the namesake though), and husband likes Cordelia. Still mulling and looking up ones suggested...definitely strongly prefer long names with nice potential nicknames.

I love Marianne and Cordelia.

Rosalind. Fantastic name. Not Guinevere. Ginevra?

I LOVE Cordelia!

Anastasia?

Dorothea? Middlemarch vibes. I wanted it for DD but DH vetoed. Hester?

Theodora Rose is nice, none of them say strong or classic to me tho, especially Georgiana

I love Georgiana Alice. Both names are beautiful and in most UK accents the 'a' at the end of the first name is more of an uh sound so doesn't clash with the A of Alice imo.

I know someone who has a Rosalind and a Theodora. She also has Cecily so throwing that one out there as an idea too.

Gabriella
Tabitha

I wanted to have them both on list for DD but vetoed by DH, boo!

I like Rosalind .
I'm not a fan of Rose/Ivy/May names for middle names unless of course you are picking them for family reasons.
