[Opinions] Comments on my top girl names... + nicknames
I finally have a shortlist of favourites, but I think some could probably be bettered. I am open to new name suggestions and edited combos :)Eden Lily - my top name at the minute, may be a phase I don't know!
Beatrice Dorothea
Esme Liliana
Beatrice Isla
Dorothea Florence
Eden Florence(obviously wouldn't be using any combos with the same names in a sibset)What do you think of these nicknames/which one would you use?
Eden: Edie
Beatrice: Bea, Trixie, Beaty
Dorothea: Thea, Dolly
Esme: probably wouldn't shorten it much but Ez?

My favourite of your favourites is Dorothea Florence. Somehow Dorothea sounds younger to me than Dorothy. Perhaps it's because it doesn't end so abruptly.You could also shorten Esme to Mia.:0)

Sorry, but none of them appeal to me. Eden Lily sounds like a phase somebody would go through. It just sounds like another Lily Rose knockoff.Dorothy I like much better than Dorothea. Dolly is kind of cute, but a little cheesy. Thea is the hipster go-to nn.Bea is cute in a granny-ish kind of way. Trixie is a dog's name, or a 1950's stripper/prostitute.Esme sounds like a stifled sneeze.Florence is pretty.

I'm never going to be able to look at the name Esme again without giggling!:0)
