[jasmine.lee]

Wow, your list is huge!

1. [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] - Pretty, but not my style.
2. [name_f]Snowdrop[/name_f] - It’d make a lovely middle.
3. [name_f]Samantha[/name_f] - [name_u]Love[/name_u]! It’s on my list too.
4. [name_f]Willow[/name_f] - [name_f]Lovely[/name_f].
5. [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] - Very pretty.
6. [name_f]Ravenna[/name_f] - I’d love to meet a [name_f]Ravenna[/name_f]!

8. [name_f]Gabrielle[/name_f] - Nice, but NMS.
9. [name_f]Brenda[/name_f] - I have a love/hate (more like love/I-only-dislike-you-a-teensy-bit) with [name_f]Brenda[/name_f]. I love love love old/clunky/vintage/mid century names.
10. [name_f]Marnie[/name_f] - Very pretty!

You’ve got everything but the kitchen sink on this list. I’m not sure what you’re asking for. Are you just collecting at this point, and want opinions on your collection?

From this list, the following names are standouts that provide some sense of stylistic cohesion:

[name_f]Ayla[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Ravenna[/name_f]
Azula (but definitely not with the nn [name_u]Blue[/name_u] - way too cutesy)
[name_u]Echo[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f]
[name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Forsythia[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]
[name_f]Lileas[/name_f]
[name_u]Bellamy[/name_u]
[name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Carys[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Valencia[/name_f]
[name_f]Jessamine[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lavender[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Gaia[/name_f]
[name_f]Paloma[/name_f]
[name_f]Claudia[/name_f]
[name_f]Allegra[/name_f]
[name_f]Mafalda[/name_f] (in the middle)
[name_f]Fae[/name_f] (vastly prefer the [name_f]Faye[/name_f] spelling)

[name_f]Snowdrop[/name_f], [name_u]Bayou[/name_u], [name_f]Sunday[/name_f], Catkin (as in otherkin?), [name_f]Arabesque[/name_f], [name_u]November[/name_u], [name_f]Sincerity[/name_f] (you’re dooming her to become a liar out of spite), [name_f]Snow[/name_f], and Loveday (anywhere but the middle) are rather silly and teen-y, especially compared to the many names on this list that are not only beautiful but weighted with history.

Sibsets:

[name_f]Avalon[/name_f] and Ilyria
[name_f]Valencia[/name_f] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Gaia[/name_f] and [name_u]Echo[/name_u]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] and [name_f]Jessamine[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Nova[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]

[DotDraper]

What an eclectic list!
Like: [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Marnie[/name_f], [name_f]Padma[/name_f], [name_f]Jill[/name_f], [name_f]Fleur[/name_f], [name_f]Birdie[/name_f], [name_f]Evangelina[/name_f], [name_f]Hanna[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], [name_f]Prudence[/name_f], [name_f]Nova[/name_f], [name_f]Plum[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_f]Carys[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Virginia[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Lavender[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Louisa[/name_f], [name_f]Lux[/name_f], [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], [name_f]Claudia[/name_f], [name_f]Penelope[/name_f].

Dislike: [name_f]Snowdrop[/name_f], [name_f]Brenda[/name_f], Catkin, [name_f]Mehetabel[/name_f], Dylis, [name_f]Ortensia[/name_f], [name_f]Wendolyn[/name_f], [name_u]Halcyon[/name_u], [name_f]Morag[/name_f], [name_f]Peggy[/name_f], [name_f]Mafalda[/name_f].

Everything else falls somewhere in between for me.
