Which is your favorite and why?
[name_f]Isabel[/name_f]! Timelessly beautiful and feminine, but not over the top. I love it, especially with nn āIzzyā.

[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] - my favourite, elegant, princessy but not too sugary, has a spark, also love [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] - beautiful classic, timeless, canāt go wrong with it really
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - another classic, though never was a fan of this name, simple [name_f]Liv[/name_f] has more personality to me

Hmm
[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] - sheās a pretty delicate classic with a lovely sweet sound that is very timeless. I like the nicknames [name_u]Izzy[/name_u] & [name_f]Belle[/name_f]. Itās a pretty name!
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] ~ personally prefer [name_f]Olive[/name_f] which I think has a prettier fresher sound whereas concerning [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] Iām not really a fan. [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] sound wise doesnāt feel that pretty I think the strong āvā rolls into the āaā which Iām not a fan off. Also sheās just so popular that the name is kinda tiresome. Iām just not a [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] girl prefer [name_f]Olive[/name_f].
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] ~ this name feels brave, strong and has a majestic flair. Sheās relatively rare despite being a well known name which is great and she has a range of beautiful nicknames. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] name.
Itās a hard one between [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] & [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] but I think I prefer [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] just because sheās so classy and delicate.

Anastasia is my favorite! She feels timeless and beautiful and I love the lacey imagery that it brings about. I donāt have a preference with either pronunciation!
I love and prefer Isabella to Isabel because Isabella sounds fuller, itās also the name we use in Spanish. However, both Isabel and Isabella feel way over done. Plenty of people I know have little ones named Isabel & Isabella.
Olivia isnāt really my style, I donāt like the āOliā part, but I do like the āviaā sound lol. I canāt understand how this name has been in the Top 10 for so long! I can see this name being in the top 50 or 100, but #1 name just baffles me.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] is my favourite because I think it sounds very beautiful.

i love the feel of it, and the sound of it, and it has significance to me.
I love the flair of [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]!

[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] because it means resurrection and it was the name of the famous princess of [name_f]Russia[/name_f] who was such a beautiful child.
I love [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] and had it on my list for my last two daughters. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband said no to it though, and we picked other names.
[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] is beautiful, but [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] is really common where I live. [name_f]My[/name_f] husbandās sister is [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] so we couldnāt have used it anyways.
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is nice too, but too popular for me.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f], itās a name that isnāt so common, but not unheard of, easy to pronounce (even though it can be pronounce in two different ways) and has many nns that can fit with many trends; Ana/Anna, [name_u]Anne[/name_u], [name_f]Stasia[/name_f], and [name_u]Stacy[/name_u]. [name_f]My[/name_f] second choice would be [name_f]Isabel[/name_f].

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]! Itās perfectly elegant and sweet.
I think [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] is a lot more beautiful and unique compared to [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] reminds me too much of the evil step sisters from cinderella so that is a no from me. [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] I think is too popular so my vote goes to [name_f]Isabel[/name_f]. I think it is sweet on a baby, cute in a toddler, cool on a teenager and perfect for an adult. I would go for [name_f]Isabel[/name_f]
Letās seeā¦ In order of favorite to least favorite, Iād say:
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]: I can see why [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is so widely loved! Elegant, pretty, yet still down-to-earth, fun, and energetic. To me, [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] sounds like a girl who would be artistic in some way. I know only one though. The only downside I can see is the potential to lose some shine because of popularity. Itās different for everyone though, my name is just as popular, and Iāve always loved it.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]: This is a beautiful, flowing name, but I donāt know if I can imagine actually being an [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f], day to day. Iām sure Iād get used to it if I heard it all the time, but it just seems like a lot of name. Gorgeous sound and great meaning though! And I love [name_f]Annie[/name_f]!
[name_f]Isabel[/name_f]: Itās pretty, but for some reason, Iāve never been much of a fan. The ābel/belleā names have always struck me as too sugary sweet. Clearly, Iām in the minority, though. Itās a perfectly good, respectable name.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] is very striking and interesting, I find the other two to be rather tired.

The title of the thread is my order of preference.
I really like the no fuss feel of Isabel/Isobel, even though it still feels quite feminine and substantial. I think it would fit most personality types.
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is also a favourite. Iām in Australia where itās ranked at #1 for popularity, but thereās obviously a reason for this.
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] feels like so much name. It also feels as though it should only be used in certain cultural circles. I donāt know. Itās just not a named I would bother with.
