Great list overall! My favorites are Grace, Katherine (Kate), Emma and Charlotte. I also like Abigail. You could also work fn and mn from this list. I really like Emma Katherine, Charlotte Grace, Abigail Grace.

Thanks, all! Based on the responses, Katherine (Kate) seems to be the runaway favorite. Our only concerns with this name (because we both love it as an independent name) are: (1) it sounds a little bit harsh with our last name, which ends in a hard "ck" sound (Charlotte has the same problem), and (2) I am worried about the rash of Princess-inspired Kates over the next couple of years (although it's not like Emma or Abigail are rare names these days...).
Interestingly enough, Addison got zero votes. )
My favorites on the list have always been Grace, Adeline, and Emma, but Elsa is seriously growing on me. My husband loves Abigail, which is just kind of NMS.
I really like Elsa. It is easy to spell and pronounce and it is not a boring super common name. I also think it's an elegant name that will work well when she is an adult.

Re: Opinions on girl names, please
I like Emma the most.
Grace
Adeline
Emma
Elsa
Tess
Abigail
I'd like Tess/Tessa as a nickname for Teresa but I don't like it as a standalone name.
Favorites: Katherine/Kate - love and Elsa, Abigail
Not my favorite due to popularity: Grace, Emma, Charlotte
Not my favorite due to just not liking: Adeline, Addison
Meh: Tess
Adeline - over the Add names
Katherine (Kate) - love
Emma - like
Charlotte - over it
Addison - hate
Elsa - eh
Tess - like
Abigail - eh

Ditto! So pretty and underused.
I love Elsa!
#2 Tess
#3 Katherine NN Kate
This
Charlotte, Tess, Abigail, or Katherine are my favorites.
I like Grace as a middle name.
Emma is lovely but far to popular for me.
