I like a lot of these names. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], and [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] are my favorites.

How do you say “Leisle”? [name_m]Or[/name_m] is it supposed to be [name_f]Leslie[/name_f]?

Names I’d suggest to go along with your names:
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_f]June[/name_f]
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Kate[/name_f]

Thoughts:

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] → elegant, sparky and literary with a nice meaning
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] → sophisticated and versatile
[name_f]Sasha[/name_f] → rugged, tough, sparky
[name_f]Marlowe[/name_f] → literary, gentle and cool with an interesting meaning
[name_f]Millie[/name_f] → sweet and simple
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f] → bubbly and bright
Leisle → not sure on this or how it’s said - like [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] / [name_f]Liesl[/name_f]? Like [name_f]Lisle[/name_f] / [name_m]Lyle[/name_m]? Like Les-lee?
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f] → it’s okay, friendly and solid
[name_f]Rosie[/name_f] → sweet and warm but with spark too
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] → strong but sweet, clear and pleasing
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] → simple and unexpected
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f] → it’s got flair and elegant - I do like [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] more though
[name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] → international and solid
[name_f]Katherine[/name_f] → strong and classic
Edaline → I quite like it in theory - is it said Ee-duh-line? Edd-uh-line?
[name_f]Abiline[/name_f] → I prefer [name_f]Abilene[/name_f], but love the sweet, bubbly sound - it’s familiar but unexpected
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] → vintage and strong
[name_m]Kit[/name_m] → snappy and cool
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f] → charming and clunky cute

[name_f]Marlowe[/name_f]
Edaline
[name_f]Abiline[/name_f]
[name_f]Sasha[/name_f]
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]
I prefer the [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], and [name_f]Abilene[/name_f] spellings but I don’t think their ranking would actually change with a different spelling. The only one I dislike is [name_f]Jubilee[/name_f] but I can’t think of anyrhing actually wrong with it so that’s definitely juat a differnece in personal style. [name_f]My[/name_f] glowing review of [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is that I love the simplicity. Its elegant but strong and also feels classic and familiar but not overused at all. Its a very refreshing choice.

I’ll pair them up with each other:
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Marlowe[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f] Edaline
[name_m]Kit[/name_m] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]

[name_f]Rosie[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Liesl[/name_f] [name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]
[name_f]Millie[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f]

The names I like from your list & what middle name I would pair them with:

[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f]

[name_f]Marlowe[/name_f] [name_f]Reese[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosie[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]

[name_f]My[/name_f] faves in order of preference:

[name_f]Sasha[/name_f] - imagine a ballerina and all that vibe, also really like that soft “sh” sounding, smth soft, gentle and warm

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] - like the sounding, feels modern and vintage at the same time, cool [name_m]French[/name_m] vibes

[name_f]Rosie[/name_f] - sweet, cozy, simple, also like the sounding

[name_f]Juliette[/name_f] - not really like the sounding, but like [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] and all that vibe

Here’s my thoughts on each!
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]- Feels a bit uptight for me but I do love the nn [name_f]Cori[/name_f]!
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f]- Not my personal favorite, especially on its own, but [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] is nice enough.
[name_f]Sasha[/name_f]- I absolutely adore this name!
[name_f]Marlowe[/name_f]- This is one of those names that I feel that I should love but I just don’t. But oh well.
[name_f]Millie[/name_f]- I love this name! It has so many great options for full names, too- [name_f]Mildred[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], [name_f]Camille[/name_f], the list goes on lol.
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]- This is so pretty! It’s giving me southern vibes. Nn Jubie is really pretty too.
[name_f]Liesl[/name_f]- I love the way it’s pronounced, but i wouldn’t give it to a child because of how much it would be said/spelled wrong.
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]- [name_m]Super[/name_m] sweet name!
[name_f]Rosie[/name_f]- Again, super sweet! I love this as a nickname for longer “rose” names like [name_f]Rosalee[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosalyn[/name_f].
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]- Simple and sweet!
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]- I like [name_f]Jane[/name_f] more as a MN than a FN but it’s pretty!
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]- I love this name! I do prefer the [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] spelling though.
[name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]- This is my favorite on your list by far. It’s on my list too! It’s my favorite spelling of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] for sure.
[name_f]Katherine[/name_f]- Not my favorite, but that’s probably because I have bad associations with it. I definitely prefer [name_f]Kathleen[/name_f].
Edaline- this is so pretty!!! I adore it, and [name_f]Eda[/name_f] is a great nn.
[name_f]Abiline[/name_f]- I don’t have strong feelings on this either way. I definitely prefer the [name_f]Abeline[/name_f] spelling though.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]- I absolutely adore this! Definitely one of my favorites on this list.
[name_m]Kit[/name_m]- Again, no strong feelings about this either way, but it’s cute!
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]- So sunny and warm, I love it!

Here’s my top 3, as first and Middles.

  1. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f]

[name_f]Sasha[/name_f]: International with great meaning. Don’t like the sound much though.
[name_f]Millie[/name_f]: I think [name_f]Millie[/name_f] has more meanings than the database says. Better not to go into that because I found 30 other meanings for [name_f]Millie[/name_f] other than Hardworking. Basically a lovely name with lovely meanings that is more International than people suspect.
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]: Nice and sunny
[name_f]Rosie[/name_f]: Delicious
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]: Dreamy
[name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]: Came up with at least 150 nicknames for this one, look up Unusual / Surprising / Stretchy Nicknames on the forums to find them. Never liked the full form.
[name_f]Katherine[/name_f]: Princessy
