LOVE: 1. Liesl (one of the sister’s names in Sound of Music), 2. Siobhan, 3. Rhiannon 4. Freya

DISLIKE STRONGLY: Lux (sounds materialistic and trashy to me, like naming your daughter for a "luxe" hotel or a "luxe" car.) Waverly (this is a national brand of cracker now owned by Nabisco. To a lot of people a Waverly is a cracker. It also sounds indecisive and weak- she wavers, she’s waverly…)

The rest I neither love nor dislike.

Brigitta - like it!
Cosima - not my personal favorite but not awful
Delphine - like it!
Deidre - not my personal favorite but not awful
Ellery - not my personal favorite but not awful
Freya - like it!
Iliana - like it!
Inara - like it!
Jolie - not my personal favorite but not awful
Liesl - love it!
Lux - hate it, it’s so tacky, and what does it rhyme with?
Persephone - it’s ok but quite a mouthful
Rhiannon - love it!
Siobhán - like it but wouldn’t use it in the US
Waverly - don’t care for it, it’s too trendy and made up.
Wren - like it!
Yana - not my personal favorite but not awful

Least favorites are Lux (truly awful), Waverly, and Yana. I’m ok with all the rest.
