[name_f]Bridget[/name_f] or [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]? [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]! So spunky. I love [name_f]Brigid[/name_f] however.

[name_f]Noemi[/name_f] or [name_f]Naomi[/name_f]? [name_f]Noemi[/name_f]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f] or [name_f]Colette[/name_f]? [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]!
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] – [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] is just [name_m]Wizard[/name_m] of [name_m]Oz[/name_m] to me. [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] is bookish and sweet
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] – [name_f]Love[/name_f] it as a stand alone name. So stylish and jazzy feeling
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f] – [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] is my husbands abusive step-mother so I can’t like it. Besides, [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] is an underused beauty of a name
[name_f]Lena[/name_f] – [name_m]Even[/name_m] though this is so nicknamey to me, I like it more than [name_f]Alma[/name_f]. I say it [name_u]Lee[/name_u]-na
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] – [name_u]Adair[/name_u] is so boyish to me. [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is classic and sweet
[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] – [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] is so overdone on this site and all I think of is oranges. [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] is romance and gondolas in [name_f]Italy[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] – I just flat don’t like the sound of [name_f]Regina[/name_f]. [name_f]Florence[/name_f] sounds glamorous to me
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] – [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] has always sounded sort of soap operaish to me for some reason. [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] is magical to me
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] – [name_f]Love[/name_f] it! I pronounce it [name_f]Mag[/name_f]-dah-lee-na. [name_f]Mags[/name_f], [name_f]Maggie[/name_f], [name_f]Lena[/name_f], [name_f]Mena[/name_f], etc…all great nicknames. See comments on [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] below
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f] – [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] has such an awkward sound to me and it sounds like you went to the [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]'s and they said “No emmy for you”. [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] is sort of dated but pretty
[name_f]Colette[/name_f] – [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] has always seemed like such a nickname. I love the soft but sort of fashion fierce way [name_f]Colette[/name_f] sounds
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Norah[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f] (this one was hard because I have a soft spot for [name_f]Colette[/name_f])
[name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]? - [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], but not fond of either.
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] or [name_f]Norah[/name_f]? - [name_f]Norah[/name_f], but would prefer [name_f]Nora[/name_f].
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f] or [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]? - [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]! [name_f]Adore[/name_f] [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]! [name_f]Love[/name_f] it! [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] is nice too though.
[name_f]Lena[/name_f] or [name_f]Alma[/name_f]? - [name_f]Lena[/name_f] 100x
[name_u]Adair[/name_u] or [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]? - [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] aaaall the way.
[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] or [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]? - Ugh. [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] I guess.
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] or [name_f]Regina[/name_f]? - [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] or [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]? - [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] <3
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] - Gorgeous and elegant. [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] in comparison just seems childish.
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] - Adorable and spunky, but not to frilly either. And i just dislike [name_f]Norah[/name_f] in general.
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f] - [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] just gives me a unpleasant image, so [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] wins - but it does have the adorable nn [name_f]Bee[/name_f].
[name_f]Lena[/name_f] - [name_f]Lena[/name_f] is the name of my beloved great-aunt - and it’s a gorgeous name.
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] - [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] just gives me a feeling of glamour. [name_u]Adair[/name_u] just seems trendy - and for boys.
[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] - Dislike both of them, but I hate [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] with a passion, so [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] wins - but it’s way to frilly for my taste. Gives me images of [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]'s [name_u]Day[/name_u].
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] - Soft and dainty. Normally I don’t really love it, but [name_f]Regina[/name_f] is too hard for my taste.
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] - Magical little [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]. Used to adore [name_f]Silvia[/name_f], but [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] has my attention now. [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] just feels off. Maybe because it reminds me about that tv-show [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]. It used to be on the screen when I was around six-seven years old. Never liked it.
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] - [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] just feels way to awkward for my taste, so [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] wins. But it has several possible nicknames, like [name_f]Lena[/name_f] or [name_f]Maggie[/name_f].
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f] - [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] is my favorite spelling of this name. When I was a kid, it seemed exclusive - especially since most girls I met with this name - had the spelling [name_f]Nomi[/name_f].
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f] - [name_f]Colette[/name_f] is gorgeous … and I might have chosen it, if I hadn’t realized for a while ago, my pronunciation of it is close to my favorite dinner. So [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] wins - but it’s a lovely name too.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] to point out the [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] (NO-EH-MI) is a spanish name. I do agree that I would probably have to be constantly correcting people as to the pronunciation so it might disappear off my list!
