Julia or Juliet/Juliette?

jillie127 · August 2017

We have landed on two names, Julia or Juliet/Juliette. Does Juliet sound pretentious?
I have not heard it used much at all, so I don't believe it is popular and it's definitely not in the top 10 girl names. My husband is partial to the spelling of Juliet. Our last name begins with a U. We just like Juliet, so don't want to sound like we're tying too hard.

I think they all sound pretty and that you shouldn't worry about what anyone else thinks.

I went to school with a Juliet and no one thought it was pretentious or strange. I think it's lovely, although I'm a Julia/Julie, so I like all your choices

I like Juliet! Pretty name but I think the extra -te is a bit redundant. I don't think it's trying too hard at all!
