[name_u]Sailor[/name_u]
[name_u]Teagan[/name_u]
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] nn [name_m]Pip[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]
[name_u]Juneau[/name_u]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f]

Beatrix
I like [name_u]Sailor[/name_u], [name_f]Pippa[/name_f], and [name_u]Elliott[/name_u].
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] - Becoming super popular in the UK. I’m not a fan of cutesy nicknames as given names personally, but I don’t mind it as a nickname for [name_f]Margaret[/name_f].
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] - Though I do love the name itself, I can’t get past the “oh my darlin’…” reference
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] nn [name_u]Ollie[/name_u], [name_f]Pia[/name_f] - This isn’t bad, but it does make me immediately think of the Olympic games. It’s better than [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] though, which I hear EVERYWHERE.
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] - I’m not a fan of occupation names, though there is certainly something about [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] that intrigues me.
[name_u]Teagan[/name_u] - Not my style, I just don’t think it sounds that nice.
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] nn [name_m]Pip[/name_m] - Not my usual style, but this is the name of my gorgeous new niece so I’m biased! Very cute!!
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - All boy for me.
[name_u]Juneau[/name_u] - I much prefer [name_f]Juno[/name_f], unless you have specific ties to the Alaskan city?
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] - [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] vintage gem (pardon the pun), I like it best in the middle spot though.
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - Gorgeous, though many are put off by the ‘prim’ part, it doesn’t bother me.
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Isobel[/name_f], beau just seems masculine to me (as it is the masculine form of belle).
[name_m]Darwin[/name_m] nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] - [name_m]Darwin[/name_m] is all boy to me. [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] is very cute and there are much better paths to the nickname! [name_f]Winifred[/name_f], [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f], any ‘Wen’ name such as [name_f]Arwen[/name_f], [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] etc
[name_f]My[/name_f] top picks are [name_f]Juno[/name_f] (this spelling), [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Primrose[/name_f], [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] (with a different long form) and [name_f]Pippa[/name_f]!
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] - [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is very sweet. I like it as a nickname.
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]. A spunky, vintage feeling name.
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] - I do not care for [name_f]Olympia[/name_f].
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] - I have had [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] on and off my list. It is a name that would honor my dad and have special meaning for him.
[name_u]Teagan[/name_u] - I love [name_u]Teagan[/name_u]. I have [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] on my long list, it just doesn’t go well with most of my favorites.
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] - [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] is okay. I feel neutral about it.
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - I really like [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] (I prefer this spelling, just my personal preference. I honestly like the name for with gender.
[name_u]Juneau[/name_u] - I do not care for [name_u]Juneau[/name_u].
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] - I have [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] as a middle name to honor my late grandma, sp [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is very special to me.
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - I do not care for [name_f]Rose[/name_f] names. I absolutely love [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is gorgeous and sweet all on it’s own.
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Isabel[/name_f], like Isbaella, but do not care for [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f].
[name_m]Darwin[/name_m] - I do not care for [name_m]Darwin[/name_m]. I do not care for [name_m]Darwin[/name_m] for either gender, besides it sounds very masculine to me.
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] - I feel neutral about [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f].
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] - Cute.
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] - nms though I can see the appeal.
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] - I like nn [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] but I’m a bit unsure about [name_f]Olympia[/name_f].
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] - nms.
[name_u]Teagan[/name_u] - Nice but a bit ‘normal’ next to some of your other choices.
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] - For me [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] is a nn for [name_f]Philippa[/name_f] and it doesn’t really hold its own as well as [name_f]Maisie[/name_f]/[name_f]Millie[/name_f]/[name_f]Molly[/name_f].
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - This is all boy for me. I think you have much prettier names on your list.
[name_u]Juneau[/name_u] - Much prefer [name_f]Juno[/name_f], or even [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] nn [name_f]Juno[/name_f].
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] - I can see it as a middle but for some reason [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] has just never really appealed to me.
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - I really love this. Along with [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] it’s one of my favourite ‘[name_f]Rose[/name_f]’ names.
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] - [name_u]Love[/name_u] this. Something a bit different after all the [name_f]Isabel[/name_f]/[name_f]Isobel[/name_f]/[name_f]Isabella[/name_f]'s and nn [name_m]Beau[/name_m] is cute.
[name_m]Darwin[/name_m] nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] - I’m not a fan of surname-names anyway and [name_m]Darwin[/name_m] is a boys name to me. I think there are nicer/prettier ways to nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f].
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] - [name_f]My[/name_f] favourite on your list.
I personally like; [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Primrose[/name_f], [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is absolutely beautiful.
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] I’d steer well clear off as it is the slang swedish word for sexual intercourse and is actually spelt in the same way.

For me this is an easy list to narrow down.
Yes:
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is super cute.
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] has been on my guilty pleasure list for a while. [name_u]Sailor[/name_u], Bindi, [name_u]Scout[/name_u]… all kind of in the same sphere for me. They don’t match with our daughters name, so for me they are out, but for you it could be a lot of fun! We have a [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] that comes to the daycare I work in, and she is adorable.
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Cute for a middle name.
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f] Pretty
Maybes:
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] Makes me think of LOST, The Walking Dead video game, and Caillu… and obviously the fruit. If none of these bother you, go for it. [name_u]Clem[/name_u] however, is a boys name and is the most likely nick name.
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] nn [name_u]Ollie[/name_u], [name_f]Pia[/name_f] I just like [name_f]Pia[/name_f].
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f] nn [name_m]Pip[/name_m] It is popular and will likely be well recieved, however it is popular because of a princesses sisters one time fashion choice… She will most likely be forgotten, and your child will forever be pegged to being born between 2010 and 2015. She won’t ever be able to lie about her age.
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] I prefer [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. This name is cute, but will become more popular with the Devergant movies.
No:
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] Ugly boys name.
[name_u]Juneau[/name_u] A lot of people won’t know how to say it, and in my opinion it isn’t very pretty. [name_u]June[/name_u] is nice though.
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] Ugly ending to an overly popular prefix. “[name_u]Izzy[/name_u]” is almost as popular as “[name_f]Bella[/name_f]” as parents strive to find a unique nickname to the popular [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f].
[name_m]Darwin[/name_m] nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] [name_f]Do[/name_f] you really want your child named [name_m]Darwin[/name_m]? [name_f]Do[/name_f] you know about the [name_m]Darwin[/name_m] Awards? Also, this is a boys name…
[name_u]Teagan[/name_u] Boys name. Plus if anyone shortens her name to T.T. there is a lot of embarrassment. If you like this one for the nick name [name_f]Tia[/name_f], just name her [name_f]Tia[/name_f].
I like:
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
Off your list, I love : [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Clementine[/name_f], [name_u]Teagan[/name_u], [name_f]Pippa[/name_f], [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] and [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f].
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] & [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] are okay, but I prefer them as middles.
I dislike [name_f]Olympia[/name_f], [name_u]Sailor[/name_u], [name_u]Juneau[/name_u], [name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] (beau is the male form of beautiful; why would anyone use this on a girl?) and [name_m]Darwin[/name_m] (for a girl). I do love [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f], though.
