The only one I really don't care for is Cleopatra.I think it's too much.Just Cleo wouldn't be too bad.

Favorite is simply Cleo, without the patra. Claire and Caroline are also pretty.

Alexandra - classy, beautiful, gives you options for nicknames
Augusta - dignified, pretty, very unusual. I'd love to see it used!
Beatrice - a controversial choice on this website, but I love the quirkiness of it. I've never met a Beatrice and I think the nickname Bea/Bee is too cute.
Caroline - love this name. Beautiful.
Cecilia - the meaning is unfortunate, but it's a pretty name.
Claire - love the meaning, love the spunkiness, no frills but still feminine. Great name.
Cleopatra - this is a little over the top for me. I love just Cleo, though!
Dorothy - prefer Dorothea. This one is a little dated to me, but nickname Dot is cute.
Elena - pretty.
Josephine - pretty and elegant and I've never met one.
Juliette - people love it, but I think it would be hard to have this name and get constant jokes about Romeo. Prefer Julia.
Karolina - beautiful.
Laura - love.
Marina - so pretty and unusual.
Matilda - again, love that it's a little quirky. Love that it has so much history. Love it.
Veronica - a beautiful classic. Not my favorite, but a very solid choice. A great flower, too!

Just my impressions! Probably not very helpful, but you've got some really great choices!

Top Five (no particular order)

Alexandra - regal
Elena - multicultural stunner
Juliette - prefer Juliet
Karolina - prefer Carolina
Veronica - A+ name

Bottom Five (no particular order)

Beatrice - hate it
Cleopatra - dramatic
Dorothy - like Dorothea
Josephine - overrated
Matilda - bleh

Overall, a lovely list. Any names I didn't mention fall somewhere in-between.

Alexandra and Cecilia (although prefer Cecelia nn CeCe) are my favorites.

You have some lovely names on your list

Love

Matilda - stately, vintage with a jaunty flair.

Josephine - a royal name of classic charm

Veronica - strong and feminine

Alexandra - a elegant name with many nickname options

Caroline - see Josephine

Cecilia - frilly, lush and lyrical

Like

Augusta - a vintage gem. Familiar but rarely chosen.

Laura - an ancient and classic class choice

Ok

Beatrice - prefer Beatrix
Elena - prefer Helena
Juliette - prefer Juliet
Karolina - prefer Carolina

If they were Beatrix, Helena, Juliet & Carolina, they would be rated in the like or love columns.

Dislike

Cleopatra - a little over the top for my personal taste. I do like Cleo (and Clio).

Marina - I should like this name more than I do but unfortunately it doesn't appeal to me.

^ Laura is just a classic choice. My phone likes the word class. Who knew?🙄

My vote goes to the lovely Juliette
Matilda
Veronica

Augusta, Claire, and Marina are my favourites.

Alexandra, Augusta, Beatrice and Laura get my votes.

LOVE!
1. Laura (classic, simple, beautiful, one of my longtime favorites)
2. Caroline (strong, stately)
3. Marina (cool, breezy)
4. Karolina (car-o-lee-na or care-o-lina?)
5. Veronica (classic, full name is sophisticated, but I do not like any of the nicknames.)

Like:
6. Alexandra (nice name, but long enough it almost requires a nickname. Luckily there are quite a few that I like.)
7. Elena (versatile, works well in multiple languages)
8. Juliet (pretty, prefer Julia though)
9. Claire (pretty, simple, prefer Clara)
10. Augusta (old-fashioned, strong, also a place name)

Don't really like:
11. Matilda (makes me think of Roald Dahl's novel, seems like a somewhat comical name, prefer Tilly to Matty if using a nickname)
12. Cleopatra (nn Cleo makes this more wearable)
13. Josephine (dislike the "fee" sound, don't really care for Josie or Jojo either)
14. Cecilia (prefer Celia. Cecilia is too much S sound)
15. Beatrice (old and stuffy)
16. Dorothy (unable to transition to this century in my opinion. It was my great-grandmother's name. Makes me think Wizard of Oz)
