Alice
in reply to a message by Lilibet
All of your choices are feminine classics that will age well. You can't go wrong with any of them.
If I had to use some kind of reasoning to whittle the list down this is how it would go. First I'd cross off Charlotte because the repeated "ahr" sounds of Lara and Charlotte annoy my ears. Alison would go next because it doesn't have the same sweetness for me as Alice*. Alice has so many more associations for my brain to play with. Lara and Claire have too much "r" sounds going on.
So that leaves Alice as the last name standing. Lara and Alice get my vote. Are you looking for suggestions with Lara? :-)
* Disclosure: Alice Mary was my grandmother's name. So I'm biased. But I still think of Alice in Wonderland so there are other sweet associations for me as well.
