[name]Isobel[/name] nicknamed [name]Bella[/name] or [name]Belle[/name] its my grandmas name.
[name]Sophie[/name] nicknamed [name]Soph[/name] or maybe [name]Sosie[/name]. I have loved it for years.
[name]Miranda[/name] nicknamed [name]Mia[/name]. I have loved it for around 4 years.
[name]Eloise[/name] nicknamed [name]Lulu[/name] or [name]Lola[/name]. It replaced [name]Elspeth[/name] and it honours my mum [name]Elspeth[/name] and my sister [name]Adele[/name] [name]Louise[/name]
[name]Matilda[/name] nicknamed [name]Millie[/name] or [name]Tillie[/name]. I love the fact that it honours my country.
[name]Lily[/name] no nicknames but i am worried it will be dated as it had a sudden rise in popularity and is now falling and it was number 1 last year
[name]Ruby[/name] no nicknames but again ultra popular number 2 in Australia.
[name]Charlotte[/name] nicknamed [name]Lottie[/name] or [name]Charli[/name]. I love the fact that it is ultra feminine
Félicité nicknamed Fliss. Is the Félicité spelling asking for trouble in Australia or should I swap it for [name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Summer[/name] no nicknames I just love the way it sounds.

[name]Eloise[/name] [name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Felicity[/name] [name]Eloise[/name] (love “Fliss!”)
[name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name] [name]Isobel[/name] ([name]Miranda[/name] is slinky and beautiful, and has a great Shakespearean namesake.)
[name]Isobel[/name] - I like this name, the O makes it a lot different than the usual [name]Isabel[/name], [name]Isabella[/name], [name]Isabelle[/name]. I like [name]Bella[/name] a lot.
[name]Sophie[/name] - I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Sophie[/name]. I don’t like [name]Sophia[/name], but I like [name]Sophie[/name]. [name]Sosie[/name] is really cute.
[name]Miranda[/name] - This isn’t my favorite, but I like [name]Mia[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name] - Makes me think of the little girl in the hotel, [name]Eloise[/name]. I like [name]Lulu[/name], it’s cute. I like [name]Eloise[/name] better than [name]Elspeth[/name], and it honors both your mom and your sister.
[name]Matilda[/name] - By far my favorite name of your list - Adorable nicknames, vintage feel, and not too popular.
[name]Lily[/name] - I feel like it’s too popular and it’s just a fad at the moment
[name]Ruby[/name] - I love this name. I love that it’s spunky but still sophisticated and gives a nice image. Who wouldn’t want to be named after a precious gem? I like [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Adeline[/name], it’s on my list.
[name]Charlotte[/name] - I like [name]Charlotte[/name] a lot, vintage but classic. I like the nickname [name]Lottie[/name].
[name]Felicity[/name] - I wouldn’t use the other spelling, I like this spelling a lot. It is on my list. I love the meaning as well.
[name]Summer[/name] - For some reason I feel like this one is just dated and overused.
[name]Alice[/name] - I like this a lot, classic.
[name]Holly[/name] - [name]Holly[/name] is pretty but I feel like it is dated. If you have a daughter around [name]Christmas[/name] time, I would name her [name]Holly[/name].
[name]Poppy[/name] - I don’t like this one, I think she will be teased and be called Poopy.
[name]Phoebe[/name] - I like this a lot but it might be hard for people to pronounce the “Ph-” sound for some people, especially young kids.
[name]Georgia[/name] - I love this one so much. So classy.
Out of your list my favorites are [name]Matilda[/name], [name]Ruby[/name] and [name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Isobel[/name] - I like this Scottish version of [name]Isabel[/name] and the family connection makes it even more special.
[name]Sophie[/name] - I love [name]Sophie[/name] much more than the more frilly [name]Sophia[/name]. It just seems more approachable and friendlier.
[name]Miranda[/name] - Feminine and pretty.
[name]Eloise[/name] - I must say that I prefer your mum’s name [name]Elspeth[/name] to this name but it’s a fine name too.
[name]Matilda[/name] - [name]Love[/name] the history of this name and honouring your country is an added bonus
[name]Lily[/name] - Pretty flower name but a little overused.
[name]Ruby[/name] - spunky name with a bit of sass thrown in for good measure! [name]Love[/name] it.
[name]Charlotte[/name] - classy, elegant and ladylike. It’s feminine but still strong.
Félicité - This French may cause more trouble than it’s worth where you live. I would go with [name]Felicity[/name].
[name]Summer[/name] - a guilty pleasure of mine. It sounds so happy and carefree.
[name]Alice[/name]: A no-nonsense name with a great literary appeal. I may be biased because it’s my middle name.
[name]Holly[/name]: I like both [name]Mollie[/name] and [name]Holly[/name]. I don’t think either is dated. [name]Do[/name] you like [name]Hollis[/name] nn [name]Holly[/name]?
[name]Poppy[/name]: The flower is very special to me on Remembrance [name]Day[/name] and remembering the people who fought in the wars. I do find it too cutesy as a first name but it would make a wonderfully quirky mn choice.
[name]Phoebe[/name]: A sophisticated name with a mythological connection and a cute sound.
[name]Georgia[/name]: This is [name]Ruby[/name]'s natural sister - a blend of spunk and sass. [name]Georgia[/name] is also lush and romantic.
[name]Isobel[/name]- I like it!
[name]Sophie[/name]- [name]Love[/name] [name]Sophie[/name] (prefer this than [name]Sophia[/name]). It’s cuter, I think.
[name]Miranda[/name]- [name]Love[/name] it. I never thought of using [name]Mia[/name] as a nn for [name]Miranda[/name].
[name]Eloise[/name]- I never be a fan of [name]Eloise[/name]. I like [name]Elspeth[/name] though.
[name]Matilda[/name]- Like it. and I love the honoring connection.
[name]Lily[/name]- [name]Lily[/name]'s pretty (and to me it’s kinda timeless, like [name]Rose[/name]), don’t worry about it’s popularity. Considering your displayed age, I’ll guess that you’re still far away from having kids, aren’t you?
[name]Ruby[/name]- okay.
[name]Charlotte[/name]- I always like [name]Charlotte[/name]
Félicité- I like this spelling, but [name]Felicity[/name] is much easier. Your pick, whether you want to risk the continuous wrong spelling or not.
[name]Summer[/name]- kinda cute. but for me it’s only for the summer born.
Most of your names are too popular for my taste, but here are my individual opinions:
[name]Isobel[/name] - I love the name [name]Belle[/name] alone. I also love your reason why you want to use it.
[name]Sophie[/name] - one of my best friend’s is named this, and also for a by [name]Soph[/name]. Never heard [name]Sosie[/name] before.
[name]Miranda[/name] - reminds me of [name]Miranda[/name] [name]Lambert[/name] the country singer. Never heard the nn [name]Mia[/name] with it.
[name]Eloise[/name] - I would go with [name]Elspeth[/name] instead. Again, I love your reason for why you’d use it.
[name]Lily[/name] - I love it, but mainly only because I’m such a huge [name]Harry[/name] [name]Potter[/name] fan.
[name]Ruby[/name] - pretty, but not my cut of tea.
[name]Charlotte[/name] - though is never use it myself, I love it. I agree with you about it being ultra feminine. [name]Love[/name] the nn [name]Charli[/name] too.
Félicité - I love the nn Fliss. And I do prefer the spelling [name]Felicitee[/name].
[name]Summer[/name] - I knew a girl once named [name]Summer[/name] [name]Skye[/name]. So pretty and hippy-ish, which I love.
Name Crushes:
[name]Alice[/name]: so pretty, but I person would only use it as a mn.
[name]Holly[/name]: I also have another friend named this. And my grandmother’s dog is too. Very pretty.
[name]Poppy[/name]: really cute. I love it!
[name]Phoebe[/name]: reminds me of my favorite tv show Friends. And I see this more as a cutesy, funny animal name than on a little girl.
[name]Georgia[/name]: I’ve always wanted to move to this state. So pretty. But if it turns out I can’t later in life, then this shall be used as a mn for a future daughter.
[name]Isobel[/name] - very pretty, I like it a lot
[name]Sophie[/name] - pretty name, I know several sweet [name]Sophie[/name]'s
[name]Miranda[/name] - meh, not a favorite of mine
[name]Eloise[/name] - I’ve never been fond of this one. I think it’s the wheeze.
[name]Matilda[/name] - love the nicknames, it’s cute. I probably wouldn’t use it but I’d love to meet one.
[name]Lily[/name] - I prefer longer versions like [name]Lilith[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] - love this one. I’ve only ever met one
[name]Charlotte[/name] - it’s pretty, I like it.
Félicité /[name]Felicity[/name] - I prefer the English spelling if you’re planning to live in an English speaking country, it’s okay, not a favorite but nice enough
[name]Summer[/name] - not fond of this one
[name]Alice[/name] - love this one
[name]Holly[/name]- I love [name]Holly[/name] and [name]Molly[/name], I’ve only ever known sweet girls with these names.
[name]Poppy[/name]- love it!
[name]Phoebe[/name]- I like it. It’s not on my list but it’s nice
[name]Georgia[/name] - not fond of this one at all
[name]Isobel[/name]: [name]Bella[/name]/[name]Belle[/name] aren’t my favourite nicknames for this name, I prefer Izz/[name]Izzy[/name]. And also, while I love this name I feel that with the incredibly popular [name]Isabella[/name], I fear yours would be one of the many Izzys or Bellas in the playground.
[name]Sophie[/name]: I love the name, it is what I named one of my dolls as a child, it is also the name of one of my best friends, so naturally, I really like it. I especially love the nn [name]Sosie[/name], but again, [name]Sophie[/name]/[name]Sophia[/name] is really popular.
[name]Miranda[/name]: I always have loved this name, since it is the name of one of my childhood friends, I’m not a fan of [name]Mia[/name] though, I hear so many people calling their babies [name]Mia[/name], I can think of at least 4/5 that I know off the top of my head. We always used the nn Mie, or Mi-Ri, which I think is more unusual.
[name]Eloise[/name]: I’m not really a fan of this name, I knew a girl called [name]Eloise[/name] and she always went by [name]Elle[/name] or [name]Ellie[/name], it just sounds like two names turned into one to me, but it obviously has a significance to you so if you really love it, use it, but I would be more inclined to use this or [name]Elspeth[/name] in the mn slot.
[name]Matilda[/name]: This is my favourite of your names, and I love the nickname options.
[name]Lily[/name]: I feel this one is just too overused.
[name]Ruby[/name]: I love [name]Ruby[/name], it is my second favourite out of your list, it would be my favourite off your list but as you said, it is really popular.
[name]Charlotte[/name]: I’m not sure why, I’ve just never liked this name, I think it’s because I see it as just too much, its incredibly girly, but then you get [name]Charlie[/name] from it which is tomboy, and [name]Lottie[/name] which just seems all posh and prissy. I don’t know, I’m just not a fan.
[name]Summer[/name]: I really like this name, I think it is just honestly pretty and hiding nothing. The only problem I can find is the whole ‘500 Days of…’
[name]Alice[/name]: I love this, I think it is really pretty and cute and I can’t see how people can dislike this name
[name]Holly[/name]: Again, too overused, I know more Hollys than I can count.
[name]Poppy[/name]: I like [name]Poppy[/name], I’m not sure how it would age with a person though, I can only see it on a young girl.
[name]Phoebe[/name]: I love [name]Phoebe[/name], I think it really ages well and it’s super cute.
[name]Georgia[/name]: I really like this name, and [name]Gia[/name] is a cute nickname for it.
@lorijohnson for me in Australia [name]Holly[/name] peaked at 26 at 2000-2004 with 209 in NSW and is currently at 43 in NSW with 160, in my home start WA it is at 29 with 64 born, Australia it is at 35. [name]Summer[/name] peaked in NSW at 37 with 172 born in 2010 and in WA it is currently at 18 with 86 born and 32 in Australia. And also is the non love of [name]Holly[/name] and [name]Summer[/name] for me due to the fact [name]Ebony[/name] is also a nature name?
@c@29 no kids for ages so many of the names popular now want really be popular in over 10 years time
@kala_way: I will be living in an English speaking country (its my only language) and my favourite long form in [name]Lilliana[/name]
@sodallas3 I used to love [name]Lizzie[/name] [name]McGuire[/name] but in 15 or so years would it be what people first think of and here in WA [name]Mia[/name] is joint number one and has been rising ever since [name]Lleyton[/name] and [name]Bec[/name] [name]Hewitt[/name] used it.
@mischa in Australia [name]Poppy[/name] isn’t quirky at all its at number 49 in WA
@zoey-walker53 I have never actually seen friends it is a bit before my time
@Kitkat7 [name]Matilda[/name] is pretty popular in Australia 19 in Australia and 16 in WA
[name]Isobel[/name]- bit biased as my name is [name]Isabel[/name] but I love it haha
[name]Sophie[/name]- gorgeous, so popular though, it’s my best friend’s name! I think [name]Sosie[/name] is an adorable nickname. Maybe you could go with [name]Susannah[/name] nn [name]Sosie[/name] or something?
[name]Miranda[/name]- not a personal favorite, but I see the appeal and I think it’s very nice
[name]Eloise[/name]- beautiful and I love how it honors your fam
[name]Matilda[/name]- love it
[name]Lily[/name]- my other best friend’s name wow! I wouldn’t do it though tbh, I feel like its trendiness is insane.
[name]Ruby[/name]- the only australian girl I know is named [name]Ruby[/name], I guess that sums it up lol!
[name]Charlotte[/name]- I love this name
Félicité- stunning, I’d go with the [name]Felicity[/name] spelling
[name]Summer[/name]- very cute but I prefer it as a middle name
Of your crushes, the only one I dislike is [name]Holly[/name]. I prefer [name]Sally[/name] the others are all lovely, if not eye-grabbing, but that may not be a factor.
[name]Isobel[/name]- I want to like this, but I’ve just known too many Isabelles and Isabellas.
[name]Sophie[/name]- I have always liked [name]Sophie[/name], even with the [name]Sophia[/name]/[name]Sofia[/name] trend. I just never meet any real life Sophies. I named my pet rat [name]Sophie[/name], so I could never give this name to a child, but I love to see it on lists! [name]Sosie[/name] is adorable!
[name]Miranda[/name]- I knew a [name]Miranda[/name] in high school and we didn’t have the best relationship, so unfortunately the name is tainted for me. I see the appeal, though. It’s a nice name.
[name]Eloise[/name]- I love [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Lulu[/name]! [name]One[/name] of my favorites, too.
[name]Matilda[/name]- [name]Matilda[/name] is also on my list I like the nn [name]Millie[/name].
[name]Lily[/name]- I love [name]Lily[/name], but I’m not sure I could use a number one name.
[name]Ruby[/name]- [name]Ruby[/name] is nice, too. Australia has such great naming trends.
[name]Charlotte[/name]- I don’t really get an ultra-feminine vibe from [name]Charlotte[/name]. I’ve never cared for this name much.
Félicité- The “city” sound at the end bugs me.
[name]Summer[/name]- The only [name]Summers[/name] I have ever known were all ditzy. I associate this name with pretty girls who do not have much else going for them.
[name]Alice[/name]: [name]One[/name] of my favorites. It’s wonderfully classic.
[name]Holly[/name]: My opinion of [name]Holly[/name] changes depending on the day. Since we’re close to [name]Christmas[/name], I’m really liking it right now.
[name]Poppy[/name]: I can’t get over the opiate association, but it has a nice sound.
[name]Phoebe[/name]: This name has always sounded ridiculous to me. I feel silly when I say it out loud.
[name]Georgia[/name]: It’s lovely. I prefer [name]Georgiana[/name], but I love most of the [name]George[/name] feminizations.
[name]Isobel[/name]- interesting twist on [name]Isabel/name, like
[name]Sophie[/name]- warm, friendly vibe but not a “wow” name due to popularity, like
[name]Miranda[/name]- love the literary connections and sound, [name]LOVE[/name]!
[name]Eloise[/name]- sounds whiny to me, sorry, dislike. I do like [name]Elspeth[/name] but I love [name]Elizabeth[/name].
[name]Matilda[/name]- nice name and I think it’d be great to honour your country with your daughter’s name. love for you!
[name]Lily[/name]- not a fan, sorry
[name]Ruby[/name]- same as [name]Lily[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]- lovely classic, like
Felicite (can’t do accents on my computer)- I love [name]Felicity[/name] and Felicite is a nice twist, but here in [name]Canada[/name] the
accents would get left off documents a lot which means the pronunciation becomes unclear… not sure if this would
be a problem in Australia
[name]Summer[/name]- okay but don’t particularly like it
[name]Alice[/name]- sweet, simple classic and I love the royal connection ([name]Princess[/name] [name]Alice[/name], and it’s one of [name]Princess[/name] [name]Anne[/name]'s
middle names)
[name]Holly[/name]- it’d be sweet on a [name]Christmas[/name] baby, but otherwise a bit tacky [name]IMO[/name]
[name]Poppy[/name]- too nicknamey to stand alone, but could be cute in the middle
[name]Phoebe[/name]- growing on me
[name]Georgia[/name]- I think of a spunky Southern belle. prefer [name]Georgiana[/name] though, and its British upper-class vibe
Thanks @lorijohnson yeah I guess we are a little bit behind though my sister knows a [name]Summer[/name] and I know 2 [name]Holly[/name]'s (one spelt [name]Hollie[/name]) who are around my age so I think it is a bit dated here just a bit less.
To get accents on computers here you need to go into special characters and I am unsure if the accents get left off I know an [name]Ana[/name] whose name is always spelt as 'ana in documents so I am pretty unsure actually.
