This was hard, I like a lot of these!

Group 1:
Fave: [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], such a beautiful timeless classic.
Least fave: [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_f]El[/name_f]- names have been really trendy lately and I’m getting burned out on them.

Group 2:
Fave: [name_u]Raven[/name_u], such a cool name and I’m a big fan of bird names.
Least fave: [name_u]Ocean[/name_u], not entirely sure why, word names generally aren’t my thing and this one feels the most wordy so that might be it.

Group 3:
Fave: [name_f]Joy[/name_f], sweet and familiar but still a bit unexpected.
Least fave: [name_u]Love[/name_u], I can’t really picture this as a name and I’m definitely not on board with it as a first name since “Love” is a common term of endearment it seems like it would be weird for her teachers/bosses/etc. to call her that.

Group 4:
Fave: [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], I love [name_f]Jane[/name_f] and the flow is great.
Least fave: [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_u]Love[/name_u], partially because I’m not crazy about [name_u]Love[/name_u] and partially because it’s a lot of Ls and gets a but tongue twisty.

Group 5:
Fave: [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f], classic but underused, strong and pretty at the same time, tons of good nicknames.
Least fave: [name_f]Eliora[/name_f], partially because of my feeling on [name_f]El[/name_f]- names and partially because it feels a little awkward for me to say.

Group 1:
Favourite - [name_f]Ella[/name_f] (also love [name_u]Zoe[/name_u] and Emma!)

Least favourite - [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
Not a fan of how preppy and trendy it feels - I know this isn’t the portrayal other people see, but based upon the girls I know/have known with this name, not a fan.

Group 2:
Favourite - [name_u]Sky[/name_u]
Though I would prefer [name_u]Skye[/name_u], definitely still my favourite.

Least favourite - [name_u]Robin[/name_u]
It feels dated.

Additional note: I like [name_u]Ocean[/name_u], but only for a boy!

Group 3:
Favourite - [name_f]Grace[/name_f] / [name_f]Hope[/name_f]
Choosing my favourite here was hard! I love [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Hope[/name_f], [name_f]Faith[/name_f] and [name_f]Joy[/name_f] so much, but [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_f]Hope[/name_f] are probably my top 2.

Least favourite - [name_u]Angel[/name_u]
I can’t get behind this name sorry. It feels like a pet name, like [name_f]Honey[/name_f] or [name_f]Sweetie[/name_f], and I can’t.

Group 4:
Favourite - [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]

Least favourite - [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f]
I know [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] would also fall into the same category that I’m about to describe, but it feels less-so than [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f]. Whilst [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]Opal[/name_f] are gorgeous, together it feels like two items, not two names.

Group 5:
Favourite - [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]
Popular, but popular for a reason. I do think it’s gorgeous! Additionally, all of the Isabellas I know go by a nickname - [name_f]Bella[/name_f], [name_u]Izzy[/name_u], [name_f]Belle[/name_f], [name_f]Ella[/name_f]. I don’t know one who goes by their full name, so I think that would make a difference.

Least favourite - [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]
I know of two Cassandras and they are both really mean. [name_f]Cassie[/name_f] is cute, but not enough to make up for [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]. I do however love [name_f]Alessandra[/name_f] (or Alexandria).

Group one:

Fave: [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
Least Fave: [name_f]Emma[/name_f]

[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is bright, zippy and lovely. It has a great meaning. [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] was a close pick - sophisticated and elegant and sweet.
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] is my least favourite - I just find it a bit bland.

Group two:

Fave: [name_u]Sky[/name_u] (or Ocean)
Least Favourite: [name_u]Rain[/name_u]

[name_u]Sky[/name_u] is so sharp, expansive and lovely. [name_u]Ocean[/name_u] is powerful and has beautiful imagery.
[name_u]Rain[/name_u] isn’t bad and I don’t hate it, but I don’t super love the imagery personally.

Group three:

Fave: [name_f]Hope[/name_f]
Least Fave: [name_u]Angel[/name_u]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] is bright, universal and lovely in sound.
[name_u]Angel[/name_u] isn’t bad, but I prefer the longer versions - [name_u]Angel[/name_u] by itself feels like a lot.

Group five:

Fave: [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
Least Fave: [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]

[name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is so lovely to say and I love them together.
[name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is a bit bland. I know multiple - like, [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is the middle of at least three of the Lilys in one of the year groups I work with…

Group five:

Fave: [name_f]Eliora[/name_f]
Least Fave: [name_f]Liora[/name_f]

[name_f]Eliora[/name_f] is so magical and lovely and the meaning is great. [name_f]Liora[/name_f] is sort of like an arbitrary choice because I like them all, but prefer [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] to [name_f]Liora[/name_f]

Group 1:

Gosh this was tricky but I went with [name_f]Ella[/name_f] as my favourite my daughters middle name is [name_f]Ella[/name_f] she’s so sweet, spunky and I love the fairy meaning

Least favourite is [name_u]Zoe[/name_u] I do appreciate the appeal I think she’s sleek and sharp but I wouldn’t personally use [name_u]Zoe[/name_u].

Group 2:

Again a really hard choice but I think as this is in relation to girls I have to go with my favourite option [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] she’s been a gp of mine for years and I do find her so sweet. I have [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] (Billie is an honour) on my list.

[name_f]My[/name_f] least favourite is [name_u]Raven[/name_u] I can again see the appeal but I just find her a little bit too dark for me.

Group 3:

Gosh I love so many of these names on your list I’m a sucker for a virtue name however my favourite is [name_f]Hope[/name_f] she’s just so wholesome, bright and has sweet cottagecore imagery. I think [name_f]Hope[/name_f] is lovely.

[name_f]My[/name_f] least favourite is [name_u]Angel[/name_u] as I think she’s a bit much I would prefer as a nickname for [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] or [name_f]Angeline[/name_f].

Group 4:

So many sweet options but I think [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] she’s just sweet and girly with a very classic feel.

[name_f]My[/name_f] least favourite option is [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_u]Love[/name_u] I think she’s a bit too descriptive.

Group 5:

It was tough between [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] + [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] but I think I prefer [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] I love how visually attractive she looks, the melodic sound and angelic meaning.

[name_f]My[/name_f] least favourite is [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] she’s just never appealed to me. I like [name_f]Cassie[/name_f] but would use [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] to get that nickname.
