1) Isabella (nickname: Bella) [5]
I quite like Isabella, but it's WAY too popular for me. I much prefer Isobel or Isolde. Bella is a cute nn but I like Izzie or Elle best.

2) Amelia (nickname: Mia or Mimi) [5]
I like Amelia, but again, too popular. I love the alternative of Amelie.. {And any Em- names that I've found!}.
Mia is a cute nickname.. Mimi too. I do like Amy, Millie or Elle better though, again.

3) Adalyn (nickname: Addie) [8]
Prefer spelling Adeline, but it's a beautiful name either way. Addie is just plain adorable ♥ I love.

4) Margaret (nickname: Maisie) [8]
I love Margaret, but not Maisie. I love the nn's Maggie or Meg for Margaret however!

1) Isabella (nickname: Bella) - 8
I'd give it a 9 if it were Isabel, which I love. So tempted to give it a ten, but its so darn popular right now ;)

2) Amelia (nickname: Mia or Mimi) - 7
I like it, its pretty and classic. Love Mia! :)

3) Adalyn (nickname: Addie) - 4
I don't particularly care for it, but its not a bad name or anything.

4) Margaret (nickname: Maisie) - 5
Margaret is nice, also classic and its sweet. I don't care for Maisie though. Maggie is a cute nick name, or even Greta. But Maisie isn't my taste <3


Good luck!

1) Isabella (nickname: Bella) Rating: 5/10. Isabella and Bella are both fine names but they're so common that I kind of find them boring now. I also think Isabella looks a bit fussy and frilly - I prefer short no-nonsense girls names. I think Isabel or Isobel are nicer and also less dated than Isabella. Isabella sounds like a little girls name, whereas Isabel would work for a little girl or an adult.

2) Amelia (nickname: Mia or Mimi) Rating: 7/10. Amelia is very pretty. It's common enough without being overly popular and I think it ages well. Mimi is a bit too cutesey for me, but I like Mia. I also like Amy as a nickname for Amelia.

3) Adalyn (nickname: Addie) Rating: 4/10. I feel like this is a bit made-up sounding. I think it's the -lyn part, which is trendy and a way of making a name either "girly" or "unique". I personally don't like this trendy at all. I'd much rather see Ada, Adamina or Adele with the nickname Addie.

4) Margaret (nickname: Maisie)
Rating: 9/10. Margaret is a great name, and I particularly love the fact that there are so many possible nicknames: Greta, Meg, Peggy, Maggie, Reta.... I think Maisie is a really cute nickname. It's becoming popular (in the UK) as a given name, but I far prefer it as a nickname with a longer given name as I feel that Maisie is too cutesey for a grown up. This is by far my favourite name from your list!

1) Isabella ( Bella) [ 6]
i think Isabella is georgeous though personally, i prefer the nickname Belle or Izza. iI also prefer Isabelle or Isobel !!!
2) Amelia ( Mia or Mimi) [4]
im not too fond of the name or the nicknames as i much prefer Amelie with the nickname Ami
3) Adalyn ( Addie) [6]
im not really liking the name but the nickname is so cute
4) Margaret ( Maisie) [9]
this is by far my favourite as it is so elegant and classy and would look cute on a child and older on an adult. the nickname for it a bit strange as i normally see Maisie as a first name rather than a nickname ( my guinea pig is also called Maisie so its even more strange for me !!) i prefer the nickname Meg or Etta to go with Margaret
