[name_f]Alvina[/name_f] → vintage and unexpected. I like that it’s distinct without being “out there” or noticeably dated. [name_m]Alvie[/name_m] is a cute nickname.
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Blair[/name_f] → cool and sleek. [name_f]Blair[/name_f] feels effortlessly cool. I can never decide whether I prefer [name_f]Blair[/name_f] or [name_f]Blaire[/name_f], though [name_f][/name_f]- sometimes [name_f]Blair[/name_f] feels sleeker but other times it feels a bit incomplete.
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Catrina[/name_f] / [name_f]Katrina[/name_f] → The perfect balance of familiar but underused, and with great nickname options. I worry it’s still pretty tied to the hurricane in the US, though.
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Gina[/name_f] / [name_f]Jina[/name_f] / [name_f]Geena[/name_f] / [name_f]Jeena[/name_f] → I like [name_f]Gina[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- it’s retro and friendly. [name_f]Jeena[/name_f] would be my second-favorite spelling.
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Mavis[/name_f] → [name_f]Vintage[/name_f] and lively. It feels sweet, sunny, and bright, but also witchy, dark academia vibes.
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] → A little too frilly-sounding for me. I associate it with [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] [name_f]Presley[/name_f] and a fancy mouse character that I can’t remember what is from ![]()
Overall, [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] is my favorite!
