I think my personal naming style has evolved to be mainly German and Eastern European names. They're just so fabulous! I think Adelheid would be adorable for a little girl, especially nn Heidi (which I also love). It's highly underused, but not at all nasty like Dorcas or anything. Anneleise is also lovely and it's got so much spunk compared to bland Anne. I'm not as wild about Annegret or Annika, but they're both still fine, no biggie. None of the German boys' names you listed are any of my favorites, but they're still nice. I love Franz, how do you feel about that one? I'd use it in a second. I think all of the names you listed would be fine in an English-speaking country. They're really quite phonetic.
