[name_f]Ada[/name_f]!! In my very honest opinion, I don’t find [name_f]Frances[/name_f] nice at all.
They are both cute, but I think I prefer [name_f]Ada[/name_f] as I find it more feminine.
I really like both pretty much equally, I just think they’re the names of two very different people. I’m going to say [name_f]Frances[/name_f], since she doesn’t often get much love.
Oooh I really love both the same…I honestly can’t decide as to which I prefer…I did have a combo with ______ [name_f]Frances[/name_f] [name_f]Ada[/name_f], so I might be biased.
I always wanted to name my child as [name_f]Frances[/name_f]. It sounds elegant for me. But my husband wants to name our child as [name_f]Bella[/name_f] from the twilight movie and [name_u]Rain[/name_u] as her second name since its raining when I delivered her under caesarian operation. Maybe, for our 3rd child, I will name her [name_f]Frances[/name_f] already.
[name_f]Ada[/name_f] and [name_f]Frances[/name_f] have quite different appeals for me. [name_f]Ada[/name_f] is a modern girl with a vintage twist, whereas [name_f]Frances[/name_f] has a deep and traditional beauty. I would choose [name_f]Frances[/name_f]. I love nn [name_f]Francie[/name_f], also [name_f]Fancy[/name_f]/[name_f]Fancie[/name_f]. [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is good too. There is a [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Hardy[/name_m] novel, Under the Greenwood Tree, where the heroine is teacher, [name_f]Fancy[/name_f] [name_u]Day[/name_u]. I love it!
Both are really sweet names. I slightly prefer [name_f]Frances[/name_f].
[name_f]Frances[/name_f]! 
[name_f]Ada[/name_f]. [name_f]Frances[/name_f] will always feel more masculine to me, and not pleasant sounding on a girl or boy for me.
