Convince me on Alice🌷

Girl Names

Hello berries!

I’ve been positively fixated with my list of feminine names lately and trying to expand it a bit beyond my more steadfast loves.

On paper at least, I think [name_f]Alice[/name_f] fits the bill perfectly; but I just can’t bring myself to love it. The name just doesn’t stand out to me in the way similar names such as [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadette[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f], [name_f]Betty[/name_f], or [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] do.

What are your thoughts on [name_f]Alice[/name_f]? How would you categorize the name [name_f]Alice[/name_f]? What emojis do you think fit the name [name_f]Alice[/name_f]? What do you envision when you think of a person named [name_f]Alice[/name_f]? And finally, if you had a daughter called [name_f]Alice[/name_f], what would her middle name(s) be?

Thank you for all your help :tulip:

I love [name_f]Alice[/name_f] but I think the reasons I love [name_f]Alice[/name_f] are very much a “me thing” and wouldn’t help you love it. [name_f]Alice[/name_f] feels like a timeless classic :books: :deciduous_tree: :rabbit: :herb: :apple:
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Zenobia[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Mariposa[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_u]Baker[/name_u]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] is a nice name but I don’t love it. :woman_shrugging: I imagine someone…. Blonde? Lol

Maybe [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] would spice it up for me :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I like [name_f]Alice[/name_f] a lot, but I don’t love it. [name_f]Alice[/name_f] to me has a fresh, intrepid kind of feel, probably inspired by the character of [name_f]Alice[/name_f] in Wonderland - it makes me think of someone practical, no-nonsense and admirably capable. The feel it inspires is not as delicate as the name suggests. I think I’ve just made myself like it more :smiling_face:

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] is sweet but strong, classic and simple but with literary vibes and history.

It feels very versatile to me, so I don’t imagine any specific type of person - just it’s got solidity and a cute quality too.

If I had a daughter called [name_f]Alice[/name_f], I’d consider middles:

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_u]Romilly[/name_u]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Persephone[/name_f]

Part of Alice’s super power is that it’s classic yet so versatile.

It’s every bit [name_f]Alice[/name_f] in Wonderland (curious, exuberant, bright, sunshine, magic) :tulip::fox_face::bug::parrot::shamrock::mushroom::sun_with_face::watermelon::lollipop:

As it is dark academia (serious, cozy, confident, reserved) :coffee::notebook::test_tube::film_strip::apple::cloud::maple_leaf::books:

As it is old money (confidence, pride, power) :gem::lipstick::racehorse::wilted_flower::cocktail::badminton::credit_card:

FWIW, I think [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is exactly the kind of name that can bridge the gaps between [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Betty[/name_f], and [name_f]Aoife[/name_f].
