I absolutely adore [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]. Very beautiful name. [name_f]Etta[/name_f] is pretty too, but [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is perfect imo.
This is so tough because these are two of my absolute favourites!
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] is vintage and charming. [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is rhythmic and vibrant.
I think I’m going to have to [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]. I like how it rolls off the tongue
I prefer the sound of [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]—it’s a gorgeous name—but the biblical connotation makes it a no-go for me. But if the connotation doesn’t bother you at all, then [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] would get my vote.
[name_f]Etta[/name_f], without a doubt. It’s uncomplicated but refined, vintage and so underused. I absolutely adore it.
I’ve tried to get myself to like [name_f]Etta[/name_f], as it seems perfectly my style, but I just can’t seem to get myself on board with it. It feels a bit incomplete for me, which is so odd, as I love diminutive names ([name_f]Millie[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Katie[/name_f]) as firsts?
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is stunning, so that gets my vote 
I prefer [name_f]Etta[/name_f]! So classy, simple, snappy and underused
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is a little fussy and cutesy for my liking (i still like it just not as much as [name_f]Etta[/name_f]
), I prefer [name_f]Della[/name_f]
A vote for [name_f]Etta[/name_f]! I find it a bit more underused and unexpected than [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]. It’s vintage and punchy, and goes well with [name_u]Jude[/name_u]. I don’t mind [name_f]Delilah[/name_f], but there are so many little [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]'s/[name_f]Lila[/name_f]'s etc running around, and it still reads a bit biblical bad girl to me!
I love [name_f]Etta[/name_f]! It’s one of my favorites right now.
I love them both. [name_f]Etta[/name_f] is gorgeous but she always feel a little incomplete to me. [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] and [name_u]Jude[/name_u] make a gorgeous pair so she would be my pick.
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] for sure. I don’t particularly care for [name_f]Etta[/name_f], although cute, just NMS. I love names with nicknames and so [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is a winner.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Etta[/name_f], [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is okay
I think [name_u]Jude[/name_u] & [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] sound better together. I also prefer [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] over [name_f]Etta[/name_f]. [name_f]Etta[/name_f] is one of those names for me that I really want to like and try to like, but I just can’t seem to get there. I will say, I’m not a huge fan of the connections with [name_f]Delilah[/name_f], but it’s still a very sweet name and if they don’t bother you, I would definitely put my vote there!
