No variations on these names are options (people often say “I prefer [name_f]Alison[/name_f]/[name_f]Ellen[/name_f]/[name_f]Louisa[/name_f]” in response to my short list).
They are all very sweet, classic names. Short but sweet
I’d veer toward [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
As a child of the 90s, I loathe the overuse of [name_f]Louise[/name_f] as both first and middle names. Literally almost every girl I know who is my age has the middle of [name_f]Louise[/name_f] (myself included). I don’t mind the name itself, it’s very elegant and strong, I just see it everywhere I go!
[name_f]Helen[/name_f] is a lovely name and I can imagine it suits a young lady or an old woman, i just don’t think it suits a baby. It’s a name you have to grow in to.
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] is becoming quite popular at the moment but it doesn’t take away from its simple sweetness. It’s a name for all ages and is quite spunky. I always imagine [name_f]Alice[/name_f]'s as being happy, adventurous little girls with a great imagination.
