[name]Juliette[/name] - I have always loved this name and love this spelling variation of [name]Juliet[/name] that gives it a bit of a french touch
[name]Willa[/name] - I think [name]Billie[/name] looks too masculine for my taste but could work as a nn
[name]Jemima[/name] or [name]Colombia[/name] - Neither, I dislike them both, [name]Jemima[/name] reminds me of pancakes and [name]Colombia[/name] doesn’t even look like it could work as a name but if I had to I’d choose [name]Colombia[/name]
[name]Sian[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name]! Favourite irish name, the pronounciation wouldn’t be a problem even if it is with most irish names cause [name]Sean[/name] has already been introduced to the world
[name]Jamie[/name] - Never been a big fan of [name]Jacqueline[/name] or the nn [name]Jackie[/name]
[name]Josephine[/name] - I love the nn [name]Josie[/name] and [name]Fifi[/name] is too cutesy
[name]Glenna[/name] - I like the sound of it, reminds me of [name]Jenna[/name] but with a twist
[name]Shauna[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name]! I really like this name I think it is not so common but still familiar ans sounds lovely
[name]Harriet[/name] - The nn [name]Hattie[/name] sounds so lovely for a little girl and [name]Henrietta[/name] just sounds like an old lady’s name no offense to anyone who likes this one but I think it’s dated

[name]Julianne[/name] or [name]Juliette[/name] - [name]Juliette[/name], it is feminine and beautiful.
[name]Willa[/name] or [name]Billie[/name] - [name]Willa[/name] by a long shot, I prefer [name]Billy[/name] for a boy
[name]Jemima[/name] or [name]Colombia[/name] - Neither.
[name]Jane[/name] or [name]Sian[/name] -[name]Jane[/name], classic, simple and beautiful, reminds me of [name]Jane[/name] [name]Austen[/name].
[name]Jacqueline[/name] or [name]Jamie[/name] - [name]Jamie[/name], cute.
[name]Josephine[/name] or [name]Fifi[/name] - [name]Josephine[/name] for sure, [name]Fifi[/name] is cute as a nn
[name]Glenna[/name] or [name]Glynis[/name] - [name]Glenna[/name], softer sounding than [name]Glynis[/name].
[name]Shauna[/name] or [name]Evanna[/name] - Hmmm… this one is tough, but I know a [name]Shauna[/name] who is really sweet so I’ll go with [name]Shauna[/name].
[name]Harriet[/name] or [name]Henrietta[/name] - [name]Harriet[/name]

[name]Juliette[/name] - it’s stunning
[name]Willa[/name] - [name]Billie[/name] is a boy’s name
[name]Jemima[/name] - because [name]Colombia[/name] just makes me think of the country
[name]Jane[/name] - I like both but I prefer [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Jacqueline[/name] or [name]Jamie[/name] - neither
[name]Josephine[/name] - I can’t see [name]Fifi[/name] working as a given name
[name]Glenna[/name] or [name]Glynis[/name] - neither
[name]Evanna[/name] - I find [name]Shauna[/name] dated
[name]Harriet[/name] - I adore both names but [name]Harriet[/name] is more wearable these days

6

[name]Julianne[/name] or [name]Juliette[/name] - I prefer the [name]Juliet[/name] spelling but [name]Juliette[/name] is preferable to the “dated” [name]Julianne[/name].
[name]Willa[/name] or [name]Billie[/name] - [name]Willa[/name] for its literary pedigree.
[name]Jemima[/name] or [name]Colombia[/name] - [name]Jemima[/name] for its lyrical beauty. [name]Colombia[/name] is a place name.
[name]Jane[/name] or [name]Sian[/name] - [name]Jane[/name] for its sweet simplicity.
[name]Jacqueline[/name] or [name]Jamie[/name] - [name]Jacqueline[/name] is classy. [name]Jamie[/name] is not.
[name]Josephine[/name] or [name]Fifi[/name] - [name]Josephine[/name] for its majestic strength. [name]Fifi[/name] would be good for a poodle.
[name]Glenna[/name] or [name]Glynis[/name] - [name]Glynis[/name] is pretty and rare. [name]Glenna[/name] just looks like [name]Glenn[/name] with an “a” stuck on the end.
[name]Shauna[/name] or [name]Evanna[/name] - Neither name is appealing to me but I voted for [name]Evanna[/name]. [name]Shauna[/name] is so yesterday.
[name]Harriet[/name] or [name]Henrietta[/name] - [name]Harriet[/name] because it sounds softer than the clunky [name]Henrietta[/name]. I love [name]Hattie[/name] even more than either one.
