I’ve duly exhausted my husband in the past few days, but we’re kind of nearing consensus on our girls name…
Won’t let you know which two are the most likely options, as I really wanna see if they’re reflected as the best options here…
[name]Willa[/name]
[name]Theodora[/name] ([name]Thea[/name] or [name]Dora[/name])
[name]Elsa[/name]
[name]Xanthe[/name]
What are your impressions?
For me, [name]Elsa[/name] and [name]Theodora[/name] were both names I considered. [name]Willa[/name] and [name]Xanthe[/name] would not have made any of my lists. So I’d say the two “winners” are [name]Elsa[/name] and [name]Theodora[/name] (and I really like [name]Elsa[/name])
However, looking at your “Considering for Boy” list in your signature, I can imagine that you would consider the other names too.
Good luck
Tough choice. I like them all! Three of them are on my list should I have a girl. In order, I love:
Theodora :beautiful, strong - love nickname options. Love it.
Willa : have always loved this. It’s a strong, but almost dreamy name. It has weeping willow connotations for me, a tree I love.
Elsa : very sweet name. I see this on a shy but spunky little girl. The name translates across generations and would age well.
Xanthe : sweet, bright and happy name.
Good luck!
I love [name]Willa[/name]! And I like [name]Theodora[/name], too. [name]Dora[/name] is such a cute nickname. 
I don’t care for [name]Elsa[/name], and I really cannot stand [name]Xanthe[/name].
Good luck!
[name]Elsa[/name] and [name]Willa[/name]. I like them short and sweet:)
[name]Theodora[/name].
I like polysyllabic names
I absolutely love [name]Elsa[/name]. It’s a clear winner, and I would go with [name]Theodora[/name] as a second choice (sounds more dramatic over [name]Elsa[/name]'s strong, spunky charm). I can see your boys list in your tag, and I have to put my vote in for [name]Eamon[/name]…you have exceptional taste!
[name]Elsa[/name].
[name]Willa[/name] and [name]Theodora[/name] look too much like “boys names gone girl”, which they kinda are, but it’s too blatant imo. [name]Xanthe[/name] looks like a medication.
[name]Xanthe[/name]: cool name
[name]Elsa[/name]: OK, like nn [name]Elsie[/name]
[name]Theodora[/name]: NMS at all
[name]Willa[/name]: really NMS
[name]Theodora[/name] and [name]Elsa[/name]. I really adore [name]Thea[/name] as the nn (and would likely choose it alone for myself), but [name]Elsa[/name] is also a lovely choice.
I like [name]Theodora[/name]. [name]Elsa[/name] is cute too.
I love [name]Willa[/name] and [name]Xanthe[/name]. Be hard to choose between those two. Maybe [name]Xanthe[/name], which I wish I could use. Impression-wise, [name]Willa[/name] is more sweet, [name]Xanthe[/name] is a little bit antique-eccentric, which I like, but isn’t as sweet as [name]Willa[/name] which feels slightly less Victorian parlour and slightly more pioneer girl.
I pretty much love them all, but [name]Willa[/name] and [name]Xanthe[/name] are my two favorites from your list. I love the idea of [name]Xanthe[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name].
It’s [name]Willa[/name] for me. It’s short and spunky.
1 [name]Theodora[/name] - elegant and majestic with two great nn choices.
2 [name]Elsa[/name] - Short and sweet with a European flair
3 [name]Willa[/name] - Vintage charm with a literary connection
4 [name]Xanthe[/name] - Pretty but sounds surprisingly contemporary
I think [name]Elsa[/name] and [name]Willa[/name] are the best!
1 [name]Elsa[/name]- simple, sweet, but womanly. It’s one of those names that sits well on any age
2 [name]Willa[/name]- simple, but a bit girlish. Redeemed by the pioneer (and early female university graduate!) Cather.
3 [name]Theadora[/name]- [name]Dorothy[/name] and [name]Dorothea[/name] sit a little better, I think. [name]Theadora[/name] is a ‘look at me!’ name (which can be good, just worth considering!).
4 [name]Xanthe[/name]- I like this one as a middle name. As a first, it’s just a bit too crumbling-manor-house eccentric (and with that X it’s also a ‘look at me!’ name).
I like [name]Elsa[/name] [name]Dorothea[/name] and [name]Willa[/name] [name]Xanthe[/name], if you’re open to unsolicited opinions 
I love [name]Willa[/name]! [name]Elsa[/name] is also a lovely choice. [name]Theodora[/name] sounds nice, but it’s just too much name for me and [name]Xanthe[/name] is too unusual for my taste. I think you can’t go wrong with the first two!
[name]Willa[/name] and [name]Elsa[/name] are my favorites!
