[name_f]TIA[/name_f]!

My favourite is [name_f]Jemima[/name_f], which I adore. I also like [name_f]Primrose[/name_f], [name_f]Cecily[/name_f], [name_f]Eleonora[/name_f], [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] and [name_f]Livia[/name_f]. I don’t mind [name_f]Antonina[/name_f] but prefer [name_f]Antonia[/name_f]. I prefer [name_f]Edith[/name_f] over [name_f]Edita[/name_f], though [name_f]Edith[/name_f] doesn’t sound like your style.

My favorites:

[name_f]Livia[/name_f]- pretty sound, not-so-great meaning
[name_f]Zoya[/name_f]- fun and fresh, I prefer the [name_f]Zoia[/name_f] spelling; I do think of the nail polish brand with either spelling, though the brand is spelled [name_f]Zoya[/name_f]

[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] and [name_f]Jemima[/name_f] are cute! Maybe you would like [name_f]Gemina[/name_f]?

[name_f]Eudora[/name_f] - [name_f]Lovely[/name_f]! I love the nn [name_f]Dora[/name_f] and I think [name_f]Eudora[/name_f] is such a fun way of getting there.
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - I really love this name, though possibly because of the Hunger Games. I think it’s very sweet.
[name_f]Cecily[/name_f] - I’ve always loved the name [name_f]Cecily[/name_f], it’s got a similar sound to [name_f]Lily[/name_f] but it also feels a bit more solid. I also vastly prefer it to [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f].
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f] - It just makes me think of [name_f]Jemima[/name_f] Puddle Duck from [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_m]Potter[/name_m]. It’s not necessarily bad, but it’s also not a link I’d want.
[name_f]Antonina[/name_f] - I’m just not a fan sorry, I like it more than just [name_f]Antonia[/name_f], but much less than just [name_f]Nina[/name_f].
[name_f]Lucasta[/name_f] - not a fan, sorry.
[name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] - I love both! I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] because I love the name [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], but [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] is also lovely (I like it as [name_u]Lee[/name_u]-on-ora and [name_m]Len[/name_m]-ora)
[name_f]Zoya[/name_f] - I’m not sure about it, sorry. It feels like a nickname to me.
[name_f]Beata[/name_f] (beh-uh-tuh) - it’s nice, I’m not sure it would ever be said correctly, but I do like it.
[name_f]Livia[/name_f] - I don’t like it sorry. I also don’t really like [name_f]Olivia[/name_f].
[name_f]Edita[/name_f] (eh-DIT-uh) - [name_m]Just[/name_m] makes me think of essays etc. so not a big fan, sorry.

[name_m]Favorite[/name_m] is [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] or [name_f]Jemima[/name_f].

My favourites are [name_f]Lucasta[/name_f], [name_f]Zoya[/name_f], [name_f]Eudora[/name_f], [name_f]Livia[/name_f] & [name_f]Antonina[/name_f].
My least favourites are [name_f]Beata[/name_f] & [name_f]Edita[/name_f], which I find rather harsh in both sound and look (with my accent and the general automatic pronunciation of where I am, I think to ‘beater’ and ‘editor’ too, so I suppose that doesn’t help).

I really like the name [name_u]Juniper[/name_u]

[name_f]Eudora[/name_f] - I just think “[name_f]Fedora[/name_f]”
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - Not my favorite -rose/rose- name but pretty!
[name_f]Cecily[/name_f] - I really dislike cil/cel/syl/sil- names for personal reasons, sorry
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f] - Cute :slight_smile:
[name_f]Antonina[/name_f] - [name_u]Love[/name_u] it! Spunky and adorable
[name_f]Lucasta[/name_f] - Beautiful and underused
[name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] - I love both, [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] is less likely to be confused w/ [name_f]Eleanor/name_f so I prefer that one
[name_f]Zoya[/name_f] - Feels kind of incompleate
[name_f]Beata[/name_f] (beh-uh-tuh) - not a fan of the sound and there would be a lot of pronunciation issues
[name_f]Livia[/name_f] - A fresh spin to [name_f]Olivia[/name_f], I really like it!
[name_f]Edita[/name_f] (eh-DIT-uh) - I just hear “[name_f]Edit[/name_f] a” as in “[name_f]Edit[/name_f] a file”, but it is quite cute anyway

I love:

[name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] / [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] ~ I recently went to a museum and where all the Italian art was I saw [name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] everywhere! I fell in love. It’s so elegant.
[name_f]Livia[/name_f] ~ But love [name_f]Livana[/name_f] even more because of the meaning and less confusion with [name_f]Olivia[/name_f].
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f]
[name_f]Antonina[/name_f]
[name_f]Eudora[/name_f]

Thank you all for your responses!

[name_f]Eudora[/name_f] - a little bit clunky, but I think it could be wearable, and I love nickname [name_f]Dora[/name_f]
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - a little bit buttoned-up, but it’s pretty and I like the more unusual [name_f]Rose[/name_f] variant
[name_f]Cecily[/name_f] - beautiful! It’s such a lovely and sassy but chic name
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f] - pretty, but it’s kind of lost it’s shine, because I know a few.
[name_f]Antonina[/name_f] - [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] and its variants have been growing on me recently, and I really love this one! It feels fresh and pretty, and [name_f]Nina[/name_f] would be a darling nickname
[name_f]Lucasta[/name_f] - I find the ‘casta’ ending a bit harsh, but I think it’s an aesthetically pleasing name, and [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] would make it feel wearable and familiar
[name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Leonora[/name_f], but I’m not a huge fan of -nora names. [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f] lookss softer to me than [name_f]Eleonora[/name_f]
[name_f]Zoya[/name_f] - this feels very sassy and cool
[name_f]Beata[/name_f] (beh-uh-tuh) - I love the sound of this name, but I would worry it would constantly be mispronounced ‘beater’
[name_f]Livia[/name_f] - I adore this name! [name_f]Livia[/name_f] feels so fresh and elegant, and it’s so much nicer than [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Edita[/name_f] (eh-DIT-uh) - makes me think of the musical [name_f]Evita[/name_f]. It’s very pretty and would be a nice way of getting to [name_f]Edie[/name_f]

[name_f]Eudora[/name_f] - loooove this one. I also adore [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f]
Primorse - I think it is a writing mistake. I looove [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] more than I love [name_f]Eudora[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucasta[/name_f] - some help with pronounciation? I am a fan of [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and related names.
The rest really isn’t my style.

[name_f]Eudora[/name_f] - I want to like it, because I love “E” names and -ora names, but something about it feels so fusty and old-lady to me. I, without variance, think of fedoras, too, which makes little sense, but oh, well.
Primorse - [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] is adorable! I would only use it as a mn, personally, but I do like it.
[name_f]Cecily[/name_f] - I like [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] and [name_f]Cecile[/name_f] more, but it is nice.
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f] - sweet, but I like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] more.
[name_f]Antonina[/name_f] - [name_f]ADORE[/name_f]! She’s my favorite [name_m]Anton[/name_m]- variant for a girl.
[name_f]Lucasta[/name_f] - she feels so dark and sad to me. I like the [name_m]Luc[/name_m]- beginning, but she’s not my favorite, unfortunately!
[name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] - [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Leonora[/name_f]. [name_f]Eleonora[/name_f] isn’t a HUGE favorite, but I adore [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] so much!
[name_f]Zoya[/name_f] - love a lot! I prefer the Polish (?) spelling, Zoja, though.
[name_f]Beata[/name_f] (beh-uh-tuh) - pretty and intriguing! I always assumed she was a diminutive of [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], but for a while now I’ve been wondering if I was wrong (I should probably stop being lazy and just look it up, lol). I like it much more than [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]!
[name_f]Livia[/name_f] - super sweet and pretty. She makes me think of [name_u]Brazil[/name_u] and ancient [name_m]Rome[/name_m], but is so diverse and usable in all sorts of nationalities, I would think! I have [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] on my list, but I love [name_f]Livia[/name_f] a lot.
[name_f]Edita[/name_f] (eh-DIT-uh) - I love [name_f]Edith[/name_f], but I’ve been having troubles getting into international variants like [name_f]Edita[/name_f] and [name_f]Edyta[/name_f]. I’m not even sure I’m a fan of the [name_m]French[/name_m] pronunciation, ay-DEET. She looks beautiful, though!

My favorites are [name_f]Leonora[/name_f], [name_f]Livia[/name_f], [name_f]Beata[/name_f], [name_f]Antonina[/name_f], and [name_f]Zoya[/name_f]! Good luck!

Yes, [name_f]Beata[/name_f] is an Italian version of [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. I also prefer Zoja, but I think [name_f]Zoya[/name_f] would be easier for English speakers.
