Juliette or Eugenie?

[Doozie]

What are your honest thoughts?

Juliette - what spelling would you choose Juliet/Juliette?

Eugenie - Not overly used, sounds pretty to my ears pn Eu-zjen-ie, am I missing something?

Thanks!

I prefer Juliet. Only because I worked with a Eugenie and she was lovely but I never felt like I was pronouncing her name right and it felt a bit rude to keep asking!

I don't like Eugenie at all- "looks" ugly to me. I much prefer Juliette with that spelling.

I love Eugenie, really unusual but pretty. Genie is a lovely NN too.

Fayrazzled I know what you mean. Eugenie does look a bit ugly - but it sounds nice! I was never a big fan of the name before but now it is really growing on me. It is definitely on the list.

With Juliet, do you instantly think of Romeo?

Juliet - it's feminine but not twee. Classic. I don't think of Romeo instantly

Eugenie is a bit posh - which is OK if you are posh. Are you posh ? . You'll also have problems with spelling and pronunciation, I think

No not posh, and definitely don't won't to be seen as trying too hard. So Eugenie not a name for the masses? Juliet/Juliette - not the same problem?

Eugenie is gorgeous. I pronounce it 'YOU-zhay-nay'. The Duchess of York says that she pronounces it (her daughter's name) as 'Use yer knee'. Which somehow isn't so nice!

Doozie I would agree with that.

Thanks Jamie - I still like it though! Will be checking with dh if there is any blue blood on his side of the family (along with some hidden wealth..)

Vivia - 'YOU-zhay-nay' - I love it!!

I like them both. I think they're pretty.

Both lovely; I would use the JULIET spelling.

I prefer the spelling Juliette, I think it looks prettier than Juliet, in any case it's a beautiful name!

Juliet (no extra te on the end) Eugenie just sounds like you're trying a bit too hard IMHO

I like Juliet.

I think Juliet is a very pretty name (don't see any need for an extra "te").

Not keen on Eugenie, prefer Jenny.

Juliet/Juliette is lovely. I think I prefer Juliet but both are pretty. I don't like Eugenie as it is too close to eugenics which makes me think of nazis.

Juliette spelling is poncy imo
Juliet is fab

I also like Eugenie.

not much help sorry

I like the both

prefeer Juliette just like the ette ending

Juliet. Much prefer it spelled this way.

eugenie is lovely too.

I love Juliet, and no, I don't instantly think of Romeo. I've known 2 lovely Juliets, so it makes me think of them and they were just great In fact, I'd have used it except it didn't go well with our surname.

Not fond of Eugenie.

Juliets are always lovely. Juliettes are harder on the nerves. ime.

No offence to any Juliettes. I'm sure I don't know you

I thought of Bravo

Love Juliette/ Juliet (slightly prefer the latter spelling -simple and elegant).

Sorry to say I really dislike Eugenie, sounds both ugly and try-hard to me (sorry!)

Juliette is lovely.

I think Eugenie is a very dreary, ugly name.
