  Grace is so overdone IMO. I feel like I see that name everywhere.

  They're not really my style, but of your list I like Hope.

  S&G and I have similar virtue taste.  I hope with every fiber of my being that my daughter displays at least an ounce of what her name stands for.  FWIW, we aren't choosing the name because we want it to describe her.  We are choosing the name because we adore a personal association with it -- in short, we are honoring someone.

  I voted Grace but I was stuck between that and Hope.

  I voted Grace, but DD's MN is one of the other options. Grace was one of DH's exes, unfortunately.

  I like Grace, Faith and Mercy. I know a Christian family from church with a daughter named Mercy. I think it's cute.

  I really like Mercy, but more for the character from the YA book The Witch of Blackbird Pond (its about Puritans) than the name itself. Grace is ok but the rest are nms.

  I love virtue names, but my favorite is Felicity.
  
  Faith and Joy are also at the top of my list!
  
  I think the only virtue name I would always avoid would be Chastity. The two Chastity's I've known were a very odd fit for the name.

  There's always been some irony involved when I meet someone with a virtue name. I knew a Grace who was a tomboy bully. I know a sardonic gothic girl named Hope. 

  
  

  That said, I think Grace is a pretty name. I don't like the rest. 

  Hey, I was a Goth girl as a teen! Most people would be *shocked* to know that now. Maybe her name fit her better as she aged.

  I like Felicity and might actually use it some day if I can convince H.  Others that I like, but would probably never use include Honor and Temperance (Yes, I first heard it on Bones!).

  Virtue names are NMS, but I voted for Joy since I have an awesome friend with that name. Grace is very nice. but so played out IMO.
  
  If I had to use one myself I'd pick Constance with the NN Connie.

  Honor is my favorite, but DH and I aren't religious so that disqualifies a lot of those names out for us.
