Thanks everyone for such beautiful suggestions!
these may not be the ābestā. of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder. but these are some of my favorites.
[name_f]Effie[/name_f] - one of my personal favorites. i just like itās simple effervescence. itās short and sweet, but still feels like a beautiful almost princess-y name to me.
[name_u]Montana[/name_u] - this has been on the top of my list for a couple years now. I donāt have any particular reason for this one I just really like it.
[name_f]Caprice[/name_f] - a name I just discovered. I have had [name_f]Capri[/name_f] on my list for awhile now and loved itās pretty tropical feel, but [name_f]Caprice[/name_f] just has a little something more to it lol
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] - a pretty, floral name
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] - i think we all think of the [name_f]Disney[/name_f] princess when we hear this name which I enjoy. I also like that it makes me think of the aurora borealis as well. I just overall find it v pretty.
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] - I feel like this name is a classic. Sheās a bit popular but overall I feel like itās a beautiful name.
[name_u]Indiana[/name_u] - take a shot (of juice) every time I use the word āprettyā lmao. but itās true I think [name_u]Indiana[/name_u] sounds very pretty but also has an almost bohemian vibe to it (probably because of the nickname Indi). I also think I can visualize the name. It makes me think of summerās by the lake.
[name_u]Paisley[/name_u] - just precious imo

I am curious to know what you like about [name_u]Paisley[/name_u]! And [name_u]Montana[/name_u]. Those have never been my style because [name_u]Paisley[/name_u] reminds me of an herb / plant used in cooking (I donāt remember which though) and I generally am not a big fan of -ley / -leigh surname trendy -ish names while [name_u]Montana[/name_u] is cool, but sounds too harsh for me! no offense, my own opinion!
I know that those names are important for you! so may you tell me what you like of them ! :]
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites from this list is [name_f]Effie[/name_f], [name_f]Effie[/name_f] is adorable as a name or as a nickname for [name_f]Euphemia[/name_f], [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Sophia[/name_f], Felicityā¦
Then I like [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] / [name_f]ChloĆ©[/name_f], like it because it is mythological but modern yet sweet and international, but here in my country it has risen a lot in rankings in one year only and is starting to be trendy! (Here is pronounced [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] like āAyā instead of āeeā and I prefer the default pronunciation here in Europe, Chloh-ay instead of Chloh-ee)
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is okay! i donāt like it neither I dislike it, it is a beautiful name too!
[name_f]Madeline[/name_f] - this has been a favorite since childhood. It feels pretty, strong, and rolls off the tongue nicely.
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] - Short and spunky, but also delicate and intriguing.
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] - So fun to say and endless nicknames.
[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] - mysterious and beautiful.
[name_f]Elora[/name_f] - another mysterious and uncommon name.

[name_f]Madeline[/name_f] is a name I like too! Probably one of my favourites in your list!
I also like [name_f]Isobel[/name_f], [name_f]Talia[/name_f], [name_f]Lena[/name_f], [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], [name_f]Eva[/name_f], [name_f]Effie[/name_f], and [name_f]Della[/name_f]
I appreciate [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Tessa[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]
[name_u]Ocean[/name_u] and [name_f]Oona[/name_f] are so cool and sassy! I prefer spelled [name_f]OcƩane[/name_f] and [name_f]Una[/name_f] though.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_u]Haven[/name_u] are not exactly my style, but I do not despise them neither. They are perfectly okay and stylish names that are nature-ish for me.
Names I think are the best is a really interesting idea. Iām going to do a mixture of my personal favorites and some that are ones I completely get why people like
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] - Arguably one of the most timeless names ever. I think this one continues to stand out because of the amount of nicknames. You can totally adapt [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] to any personality because of the nicknames. There are some amazing Elizabethās in history, present day, everywhere you look really. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] can stand out or retreat inward.
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] - Gaining popularity more recently but I think this name is gorgeous. Lots of nickname potential - [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_f]Evie[/name_f], [name_u]Ange[/name_u], [name_f]Lena[/name_f], etc. It feels vintage and refreshing but not dated. Itās a standout name that still suits lots of personalities.
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] - A little more than [name_f]Rose[/name_f], a little less intense than [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]. It hits a sweet spot of beautiful, playful, and class. The -lee names continue to trend and this fits modern conventions without feeling made up.
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f] - To me this name hits just right. Itās short and sweet. Itās not overly frilly and not unisex if people arenāt into that. It feels familiar without being in your face popular. The s- sounds soften it and that a brings it right back to feel cheerful. Shortened [name_f]Tess[/name_f] I know feels refined to many people.
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] - Iām a unisex, surname loving namer at heart. Definitely not a lot of peoples taste but I think [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] is a sweet spot for some people. It has the last name ending - an, is gender neutral, but many associate with women. I think it has a feeling of comfort without being a granny name, it doesnāt feel out of place currently with all of the [name_u]Madison[/name_u], Adalyns of the world. In the best way to me it feels fine. Like nothing to worry about, casual attitude vibe.

I think the herb you are thinking of is Parsley which I guess I could see, but truthfully my brain doesnāt make that connection, if anything I personally think of the pattern/print but I donāt typically pair them together when I am looking at it as a name. Itās a newer edition to my list & I understand it isnāt for everybody. I think for me it has a cute, southern feel to it (& i grew up in the south) so that resonates with me. I also personally have a few -ley surname names on my list (i.e. McKinley, Prestley). As for [name_u]Montana[/name_u], I donāt really have a real deep reasoning behind the name. I used to know someone with the name (we werenāt real close, just acquaintances) & the name just really stuck out in my mind and has resonated with me through the years. I can see how it comes off a bit harsh because it doesnāt really have a flow to it, so I canāt blame you for your view point on it.
& I just want to add because I canāt believe I forgot to include it in my original comment but I also really like [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]. I have had a few people in my life that were special to me (one being a woman who was like a grandmother to me who passed last year) with the name & overall I think it is a beautiful, vintage, classic name. I also feel like it fits into the ālong princess-yā category (for example the blonde girl in the princess in the frog. wasnāt her name charlotte or am I misremembering? lol)
like I mentioned before ābeauty is in the eye of the beholderā so everyone is going to have a different style so itās okay that we donāt have the same view point on certain names.
