I really love [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] “[name_u]Kit[/name_u]”, [name_f]Molly[/name_f] and [name_f]Ada[/name_f]. These three are super under the radar right now! I think I only know of one [name_f]Molly[/name_f] and most [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]'s go by [name_f]Katie[/name_f] or [name_f]Kate[/name_f], so a full on [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] is very refreshing, I even love [name_f]Cathy[/name_f]! [name_u]Kit[/name_u] as a nickname makes it feel younger and upbeat. [name_f]Ada[/name_f] is simply lovely, don’t know why it hasn’t been getting so much usage as [name_f]Ava[/name_f] or even [name_f]Eva[/name_f]… or maybe that’s a good thing!

[name_f]Catherine[/name_f] “[name_u]Kit[/name_u]” and [name_f]Molly[/name_f] are cute!

4

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Ada[/name_f] and [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]!!

5

[name_f]Ada[/name_f] has been my favourite for awhile, and I’ve recently taken a liking to [name_f]Molly[/name_f]! I also love [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] and [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]!!

6

[name_f]Louise[/name_f] and [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] get my vote, but I also love [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]!

I really like, [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Leona[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f]/[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] and [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]. [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] is my favorite!

8

I like [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] “[name_f]Emmy[/name_f]”, [name_f]Louisa[/name_f], and [name_f]Kathryn[/name_f] “[name_f]Katie[/name_f]/[name_f]Kate[/name_f]”.

9

I love [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f]/[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] and [name_f]Ada[/name_f] most! [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Leona[/name_f] and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]/[name_f]Greta[/name_f] are nice too. I’d say that [name_f]Ann[/name_f] was more overused than underused tbh – I much prefer [name_f]Anna[/name_f]. Where I live, [name_f]Molly[/name_f] is also quite overused (I’m guessing it’s different elsewhere though).

10

Sweet, simple little [name_f]Ada[/name_f] got my vote. She’s just lovely.

11

I love [name_f]Leona[/name_f] - names with animal meanings are badass to me. [name_f]Greta[/name_f] is also great, but I’ve never liked [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]. [name_f]Ada[/name_f] is nice as an alternative to the ultra-popular [name_f]Ava[/name_f].

12

I love [name_f]Greta[/name_f]! And [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] is growing on me. I love [name_u]Kit[/name_u], but I know so many Catherines/Katherines/Kathryns that it feels more overused than underused!

13

I love [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] and [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Leona[/name_f], [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] and [name_f]Louise[/name_f] are lovely names too.

14

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Molly[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f]/[name_f]Louisa[/name_f], and [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]!

15

I voted for [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]. However I prefer the nickname [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] or [name_f]Emmie[/name_f] to [name_f]Millie[/name_f]
