~Plz Help! For My Character! Aristocratic, Attractive, Lovely and Romantic~

Girl Names
1

Hello!
I am an aspiring writer who joined nameberry just now.

I need a really aristocratic(upper class) girl’s name for a main character in my short novel.
Well, name that something like…hmmm…when you heard the name, you could directly think “oh she is probably upper class”.
Yet she is a lovely and fascinating girl, so it shouldn’t be a snobby name or stuffy name or a trying-to-be upper class name.
Also I hope it has some romantic feel and if possible, not a popular name.

Sorry for my poor explanation and please suggest me some nice names that perfectly fit my criteria.
I appreciate your kindness :slight_smile:

P.S. She is British!

[name]Araminta[/name] was my first thought.

13

i think you should use penelope! good luck!

14

I second [name]Melisande[/name]. That’s my firts thought. :slight_smile:

15

I think you need a name that readers can pronounce without looking at it and thinking they’ve never seen that name before. Something familiar and classy. Some ideas that come to mind:

[name]Alexandria[/name]
[name]Katerina[/name]
[name]Victoria[/name]
[name]Abigail[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Michaela[/name]
[name]Emilia[/name] or [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Francesca[/name]

16

I think this is a really great suggestion.
I definitely see this name becoming as big a posh name as [name]Georgina[/name] and [name]Cosima[/name] are.

17

Thank you veru much:)
Anyone else?

[name]Georgiana[/name]
