I think that Katherine/Katie/Kate is really classic.  I would stay away from any of the older sounding names that are making a comeback because those will sound really 2009.  I also like Rebecca/Becky/Becca and Allison/Allie.  Those are my top non trendy names.

Eleanor, nn Ellie or Nora

Margaret, nn Maggie, Maisie, Greta

Alice, nn Ali

Evelyn, nn Eve

Anna, nn Annie

Caroline, nn Callie

Katherine, nn Kate, Katie, Kit

Evangeline, nn Eve, Evie

Would you consider Elizabeth as the FN with a NN like Eliza?

I thought you were either going with Charlotte or Samantha? I love both those names.
