Trinity
Felicity
Destiny
Amity
Temperance
Verity
I LOVE Verity & Temperance. They are unusual yet not weird and still have a classic feel to them.
Amity is okay but I always think of Amityville Horror :\ This just doesnt feel like a name to me.
I dislike Destiny very much. It has a cheap/trashy feel to it. Very stripper-y.
Felicity, I think of that show, Felicity, from the 90s. It has a very dated feel.
While Trinity has more a syfy feel to it cause of The Matrix. Its not exactly a virtue...It just seems like something that a young mom would pick...probably cause I know two Teen moms who named their daughters this.

There, I agree completely.
Verity and Temperance are two guilty pleasures for me, especially Temperance.
One that's similar that I love and hope to use is Vera.

Felicity - One of my guilty pleasures
Destiny - Too trendy for me
Amity - It's okay
Temperance - I don't really like it, though the nickname Tempie is cute
Verity - I sort of like it

They may all be "virtue" names but they have very different feels to me.

I have to agree with everything above <3
I don't mind some virtue names, to be honest. But a lot of them seem... unfair to me. You know, names like Chastity. Some are okay, I don't mind the usual ones you hear, like Faith and Hope.
I will admit I definitely do like some word names, ie Chase. I adore Chase But a lot of them... just aren't my thing I guess. The ones I like really stand out to me in some way, like Willow and Fern both have real meaning to me in a way. And Chase, it has meaning behind it to me too <3 So any word name that doesn't have meaning to me I guess I just don't care for
If you have a meaning behind each of the names, I'd probably be more willing to agree and say "aww, that's so sweet! You should definitely use it!". But otherwise... a name with so much meaning in it without the person considering the meaning kinda just doesn't click to me
I hope that makes sense!

I love Verity. It feels spunky and fresh.
Trinity and Destiny have a dated feel and do seem rather cheesy/tacky.
Felicity makes me think of the show. I like it much better than the two above though.
Amity and Temperance are just ok for me. I do think of Amityville Horror. Temperance makes me think of the show Bones. I feel Temperance might be a little impractical.

As some others have already said, I second everything that Katie said. I couldn't have said it better myself!

That being said, I like Verity, Felicity, and Temperance, though Temperance seems really clunky. I see Destiny as both trashy and dated, and Trinity is waaaay too trendy. My grandma teaches a kindergarten class and there are THREE Trinitys - no exaggeration!
