I love both [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f], like [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] a lot, and don’t mind [name_f]Aria[/name_f].
*In regard to the ‘not too common’ part, of the four you listed, [name_f]Iris[/name_f] would be the least common I’d imagine. Actually, technically it would probably be [name_f]Elsa[/name_f], however, due to the name’s ubiquity in regard to ‘Frozen’, it seems more common now than it really is. [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_f]Aria[/name_f] are both working their way up the charts ([name_f]Aria[/name_f] more-so - I’d imagine it’s definitely in the top 100, if not top 50), though still are not overly common.
*Depends, obviously, where you are located.
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]- I’d personally stay away from this one for at least a couple years, until the Frozen-hype calms down. It’s an alright name. To me it sounds like [name_f]Helga[/name_f], which is pretty unpleasant to my ears, but it’s not a terrible name itself.
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]- I love this name! I know that Pretty [name_m]Little[/name_m] Liars has definitely drawn more attention to this name, but it’s still beautiful and has a sweet melody to it. I don’t think it’s overly popular, but it’s easily recognizable and not a bear to spell.
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]- personally, this name doesn’t work for me. It makes me think of the song [name_f]Iris[/name_f] (which isn’t a bad association, but it stands out to me) or the iris of the eye. I’ll admit, it has an appeal to it though.
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] - I like this, but can only picture it on the [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] character or on a pet.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] any of these names jump out at you more than the others, or have special meaning to you? That might help you narrow it down more.
I’m a [name_f]Luna[/name_f]. Well, not on my birth certificate but I do use it a lot. I love this name but it fits a very specific imagery in my head, [name_f]Luna[/name_f]'s quirky and sweet. It’s not popular but it’s more common than you probably think.
[name_f]Aria[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Aria[/name_f]. It’s melodic and pretty. Simple and elegant. I’ve watched Pretty [name_m]Little[/name_m] Liars too in the past so this reminds me to [name_f]Aria[/name_f] [name_m]Montgomery[/name_m] -but then I quite like her style.
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] - people will ask you “like in Frozen?” [name_f]Queen[/name_f] [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] of Arendelle is loved by many. I think it’s going to be more and more popular, but won’t be on the top of popularity list like [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] or [name_f]Sophia[/name_f].
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] - I think this one is the least common. It makes me think about rainbow.
My favorite from your list is [name_f]Iris[/name_f], I also like [name_f]Elsa[/name_f].
[name_m]Just[/name_m] a few suggestions

[name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Iris[/name_f]!
I love [name_f]Iris[/name_f]! I would have used but it really doesn’t go well with our last name.
I love [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] as well! Like others have mentioned, I wonder the effects of the movie Frozen and how it will influence the popularity of [name_f]Elsa[/name_f].
My vote is [name_f]Iris[/name_f] or [name_f]Elsa[/name_f]!!!
Congrats and best wishes
I think my favorites are:
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]
I think right now, with the popularity of Game of Thrones and Pretty [name_m]Little[/name_m] Liars, [name_f]Aria[/name_f] has become a much more mainstream name, meaning, just because it’s not as popular and people really aren’t naming their daughter [name_f]Aria[/name_f], the name is heard so often it just FEELS like that. Same with [name_f]Elsa[/name_f]. Until the popularity of Frozen dies off a little, I think everyone will automatically associate the name with the movie. However, I named my cat [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] six years ago and no one asks if I named my cat after Frozen, so not sure how true that warning is.
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Luna[/name_f] seem your best bets, with [name_f]Iris[/name_f] being my #1 choice. It’s stunning!
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] is my favorite. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t let Frozen ruin the name for you. It is super pretty and awesome.
I love [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] but the others are lovely too. For other names along those lines:
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f]
[name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Mila[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Evie[/name_f]
[name_f]Clover[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Edie[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] is by far your best option!! I adore it, personally, and, unlike [name_f]Aria[/name_f], [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] and [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] isn’t considered an ‘on trend’ name that’s predicted to jump hundreds of places into popularity.
My favorites are [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Elsa[/name_f]! Both stunning options. [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_f]Aria[/name_f] are nice, too, so I really don’t think you can go wrong. Good luck!
My least favorite is [name_f]Iris[/name_f]. Any of the other 3 are pretty. [name_f]May[/name_f] I also suggest [name_f]Nova[/name_f]?

[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]-[name_m]Way[/name_m] too popular right now esp with the movie Frozen
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]- Pretty, but rising in popularity, but I like this best from all of your picks!
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]- Too much like the [name_f]Iris[/name_f] in my eye,
[name_f]Luna[/name_f]- Rising in popularity esp. among dog names.
Why not try?

I love [name_f]Iris[/name_f] ans [name_f]Luna[/name_f]. [name_f]Aria[/name_f] is nice but I don’t really care for [name_f]Elsa[/name_f].
Assuming you’re in the US, in 2013:
[name_f]Aria[/name_f] - #40
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] - #185
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] - #253
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] - #528
I am really eager to see the 2014 stats. I assume [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] will have jumped quite a bit. Same with [name_f]Iris[/name_f].
Beyond popularity, I like [name_f]Luna[/name_f] for you. It’s gorgeous and evokes a calm image. Many won’t entertain it for the reasons already said above, so I think it will safely stay out of the Top 50. I would avoid [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] because of the Frozen association. And [name_f]Aria[/name_f] because of Pretty [name_m]Little[/name_m] Liars and GoT. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is also nice.
They are all beautiful names!
[name_f]Aria[/name_f] - love the musical meaning, it’s short and sweet, though gaining popularity, don’t know if that bothers you or not
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] - this is definitely growing on me. At first I only associated it with the [name_f]Luna[/name_f] in [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m], which is not necessarily a bad association because I love the character but I just kept thinking “Loony [name_f]Luna[/name_f]”. I like it more now, though, because it just sounds like a pretty name in Spanish and it has a nice meaning. Juanes has a daughter with this name and wrote a song about her (called [name_f]Luna[/name_f]).
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] - nice name, the only association is the movie The [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] because [name_f]Kate[/name_f] [name_f]Winslet[/name_f]'s character was called [name_f]Iris[/name_f]. This is the most unique out of your choices, I think.
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] - a beautiful name, unfortunately spoiled to some degree by Frozen. There is someone on Nameberry who named her daughter this and she posted a thread about how she was considering changing her name because of all the Frozen references. You might want to wait a few more years to use this one.
