  • Of your list, Serena is my favorite. It is feminine and underused as far as I know. I only know one and she is my age.

    Alexandra - love, this was our list for a while

    Charlotte - like, but it's not my favorite

    Elizabeth - like

    Eugenie - LOVE.  DH hates it, but it's SO beautiful, I wish more people knew how to pronounce it properly, it would probably get massacred in some areas.

    Jennifer - eh.  It's not bad but I knew a million Jennifers growing up.

    Katherine - love

    Phillipa - eh, It's ok, but I think there are better names on your list

    Serena - like

    Veronica - like a lot

    Vivienne - beautiful.

    I can see why it's such a long list, you have some really, really nice names!!  I think Eugenie is my favorite of the bunch.

  • I'll warn you ahead of time that we have very different styles in names... lol.

    Alexandra: Like it for a MN, not so much FN

    Charlotte: Know way too many of these roaming around.

    Elizabeth: Pretty/classic. Really don't mind it.

    Eugenie: NMS at all

    Jennifer: Really NMS at all.

    Katherine: Ehh.

    Phillipa: Not a fan.

    Serena: My fave! Love Serena & Serene!

    Veronica: NMS.

    Vivienne: NMS.


  • Alexandra- very pretty

    Charlotte- overdone IMO

    Elizabeth- nice but pretty plain, I do like the nn Betty

    Eugenie- not my style, I just think of Eugene, then the dad on American pie, think that's the actors name?

    Jennifer- decent name but dated and plain

    Katherine- pretty, like this spelling best too, I like nn Kate.

    Phillipa- just nms

    Serena- this is my DDs name so obviously I love it! Its underused, easily recognized, pronounced and spelled, I just think its the prettiest sounding name! :)

    Veronica- love this name, I considered it but think its just a bit too big of a name and I dont like the nn Vera.

    Vivienne- nice name just nms.

  • My favorite would be Elizabeth, followed by Charlotte.
  • Charlotte and Veronica are my favorite.

    I would say Elizabeth, but I feel like it's getting really popular now. However, I know a little girl who's name is Elizabeth but they call her Liza or Eliza and I absolutely love that. :)

  • Love Katherine, don't care much for Eugenie and Phillipa but the rest are nice.

  • Serena and Vivienne are my favorites.  Charlottle is nice too, but I know a couple of baby Charlottes.

    Alexandra, Elizabeth and Katherine are fine names, NMS, but nice enough. 

    Jennifer is nice too, but I had 3 best friends in high school all named Jennifer.  I've known dozens of Jennifers in my lifetime.  It's too dated and (formerly) popular for me to use on a baby.

    Veronica and Eugenie sound harsh to me and I just don't care for Phillipa.

  • Alexandra- pretty but I'd put in the mn spot as I don't love any of the nns.

    Charlotte- pretty, but played out IMO

    Elizabeth- Love. Still popular, but has so many nn options

    Eugenie- I'd like this in the mn spot if you choose one of the -a names for the fn. (Veronica Eugenie)

    Jennifer- so dated

    Katherine- pretty but also played out and I am so beyond over the nn Kate!

    Phillipa- Pretty, and Pippa is cute as a nn, but might be popular soon due to the Royal wedding

    Serena- okay

    Veronica-My favorite on your list

    Vivienne- pretty

  • These are all good names.

    Alexandra- I absolutely love this name but hate the unisex feel of Alex

    Charlotte- very pretty, I don't love it but I can't think of any thing bad about it either.

    Elizabeth- Fairly popular but for good reason.

    Eugenie- I've never been a fan of names that end in the "ee" sound. It is unique however.

    Jennifer- Was overly used many years ago, I grew up with so many Jennifer's but this doesn't make it any less of a nice name. NMS but nothing wrong with it.

    Katherine- This name will probably gain a lot of popularity after the Royal Wedding but it doesn't take away from a lovely name and I love the nn Katie.

    Phillipa- I'm not a fan of this one either. I think it has a strange sound to it.

    Serena- Another nice name.

    Veronica- I love the name Veronica. I think it is classic without being dated and has a very nice sound to it in general.

    Vivienne- I think the same of Vivienne as I do Veronica.

    Thanks so much! My personal favorite is Veronica - it is my #1 choice and I can't get past it being The One. But DH is just meh on it. My other names are Serena, Eugenie, and Jennifer. The rest are DH's choices. He is big on Charlotte but I was feeling the same as all of you - pretty but too common these days. Phillipa is his and I kind of like it but DO NOT want Pippa.

    imagemj.reilly:

    LOVE Vivienne, Elizabeth, Philippa (not Phillipa), Katherine, and Veronica (in that order).

    I don't really care for the others.

    You are right about the spelling of Philippa. I had a feeling something looked wrong about the way DH had it but I thought it was just my imagination.

  • I love Eugenie with the quasi-French pronounciation "yu-ZHEN-ee". I also like Philippa (spelled this way), Katherine and Elizabeth. The others aren't my style, but there's nothing wrong with them.

  • I LOVE Veronica!  It would probably be my top girl choice if it didn't rhyme with my name, and we didn't have a 4 syllable last name to top it off with.
