When moms post lists this long I always suggest two things: First, eliminate popular names. There is nothing wrong with them, but if you like so many others, why not?

Second, I’d break the list up and do two polls. It’s hard to ask people to comment on this many.

I’ll give it a shot....

Love

Ruby
Rose-So underused as a fn
Felicity
Caroline
Brooke
Ainsley
Lucia, if it’s lou-see-uh
Maggie as a nn for Margaret, Margo, Magnolia, Megan
Daisy as a nn for Margaret, Margo
Evelyn
Imogen
As you can see, I prefer classics that have stood the test of time. I think all of the above would be lovely on a girl and sophisticated on a grown woman.

Names I’d like if they weren’t so popular/trendy (maybe that doesn’t matter to you)
Willow (too Palin for me now!)
Violet (we know several)
Sohpia (every third kid out here is a Sophie)
Olivia
Madeleine
Isabelle
Grace
Ava
Lily
Gabriella
We know several little girls with all of the above-5 Graces in our immediate circle

Names I like but don’t quite love

Some of these I really like a lot, but your list is so long, I was trying to differentiate

Summer
Rosalia
Marina
Lois-I love that this is unique these days and still easy to say/spell. I just don’t quite love the sound.
Isla
Alicia

Names I really, really dislike
These all have a very trendy, Hollywood celebrity/teen mom sound that is just not my style, and really you have sooooo many better choices

Macie
Kingsleigh
Harlow
Ever
Aviana

I also really dislike Alexis and Taylor-I just do.

Those I haven’t mentioned are sort of in the middle for me-don’t love ’em; don’t hate ’em.

Do some wittling down, and I’ll try to comment more.
