One of my sisters is Juliette, it’s a beautiful name.

Not so keen on the others.

I love Margot & Juliette. I also like Freda but with this spelling x

Pemba · 20/05/2025 23:42

I really like Annika and Juliet (prefer the simpler spelling).

HouseCaptain · 20/05/2025 23:42

Juliette is so lovely. As is Julia. Classic.

Delyth is best left in the 1960s where it belongs.

Delyth is best left in the 1960s where it belongs.

Noooo! It’s due a resurgence! 😃

No. It's like Sharon. Nice enough but dated. Tends to sound like Deluff in some accents.

I would like to use family names, such as names or middle names of family members who have passed away or who I am close to.

mathanxiety · 21/05/2025 01:11

I absolutely love Frida.

Annika and Juliet (not Juliette) are lovely too.

Delyth - not keen.

Eenameenadeeka · 21/05/2025 01:17

Margot

abracadabra1980 · 21/05/2025 01:36

Sorry, none.

Cleoleo · 21/05/2025 01:40

Juliette/Juliet gets my vote!

paranoiaofpufflings · 21/05/2025 02:25

I love Frida and Delyth, lovely choices. The other two are nice but not my top choice. You might also like Dilys? Seems to ‘fit’ Frida and Delyth.

Happyinarcon · 21/05/2025 02:32

I love all of these with the minor tweak of preferring Elfreda

Agree. Juliette is lovely though

Moreteaandchocolate · 21/05/2025 06:58

Frida and Delyth would be my picks, both are lovely and underused names. They’re also 2 syllables, so less likely to be shortened than Juliette and Annika (who may become known as Julie / Jules and Ann / Annie).

Turnups · 21/05/2025 07:12

Juliette is too fussy spelled like that. Juliet is lovely.
I like Anneka but have just checked and you spelled it with an I in the middle. I wouldn’t be the only one who kept spelling it wrong.
Same with Frida/Freda.
I like Margot. Not sure it’s over-popular in real life.
I know Delyth is a Welsh name but non-Welsh speakers won’t be familiar with it and will need to be told how to spell and pronounce it. (I would have thought it was pronounced Dellith but that’s not what the internet says.) Also, sorry but it sounds to me like someone with a lisp.

Mumofgirls2017 · 21/05/2025 07:40

Juliette ❤️

Seventimesaday · 21/05/2025 07:55

I like Frida best out of your list because it’s not a common name.
they are all lovely though.
I used to know a Delyth, she very quickly became Del or Del-boy.

NefiBlw · 21/05/2025 08:11

Juliette is too fussy spelled like that. Juliet is lovely. I agree.
Juliette makes me think of Serviette.

Delyth is a Welsh name but non-Welsh speakers won’t be familiar with it and will need to be told how to spell and pronounce it. (I would have thought it was pronounced Dellith but that’s not what the internet says.)
It is pronounced Dellith. It's a name that was popular in the 1960s,and means 'pretty', but it was a made up name that wasn't popular for long.

Annika also sounds like a 60-yr-old.

Frida's ok. Wouldn't choose it. Elfrida isn't nice.It's a bit witchy,and notin a good way.

I don't really like Margot but at least it sounds quite current.

I love Elfrida, it be can shortened to Elfie.

Fully agree. I would have used Julia for my daughter but it’s my aunt’s name

mathanxiety · 21/05/2025 15:41

I love Elfrida too.

sausagefingers2 · 21/05/2025 15:42

Juliette but spelt Juliet. It looks much nicer.
Not keen on any of the others sorry.
