Re: Perdita
I do like Perdita with the stress on the second syllable. Kind of difficult to pull off but in theory it is pretty and poetic. Also PerDITa suggests Dita for a nickname, which is 100x preferable to Perdy. But PERdita is not naturally how I would pronounce it and I can't get used to it or warm to it. I just don't find the Per- sound that attractive. I like:
Perdita Caroline
Perdita Cecily
Perdita Clementine
Perdita Clothilde
Perdita Constance
Perdita Elspeth
Perdita Enid
Perdita Eulalie
Perdita Eve
Perdita Florence
Perdita Frances
Perdita Helen
Perdita Ianthe
Perdita Ione
Perdita Iris - love this one!
Perdita Kathleen
Perdita Lilias
Perdita Marguerite
Perdita Marianne - and this one.
Perdita Mary
Perdita Mathilde
Perdita Melisande
Perdita Rosemary
Perdita Theodosia - love how heavy this is
Perdita Violet
Perdita Vivien - these 2 names have the same feeling to me, so they go really well
