Colette or Delilah?
Which do you like better, or hate the least? "And by the way, dearie, your punctuation sucks canal water!"

Colette.Not that keen on either tbh, but Colette seems friendlier, although it's a bit dated. I get the feeling Delilah would be a brat.

Delilah by a mile.

Delilah is o-u-t. Don't mind the name, don't mind the biblical temptress in the least, but the idea of having that Tom Jones song echoing throughout one's entire life - and it would! - is entirely off-putting.Colette, then! I know a very nice one who is often called Letty. And I prefer it to the long and complicated Nicolette.

Like Delilah. Dislike Colette. Nicolette is okay.

DelilahColette feels incomplete, and doesn't sound nearly as nice as we want it to. Comes out as KLET. If you had said Nicolette that probably would have been my pick.

Colette.I have really good connotations with the name. The writer, an awesome nun I knew, the saint. I'd use it in heartbeat.

"Curse you! You little lying Delilah!"I love Colette. Delilah is rather cool, but too much of a "bad girl" name to me.

Colette, I can't take Delilah seriously.

I quite like Delilah and I think Lilah is really cute. Colette is not my favourite - it reminds me of cauliflower and also seems quite dated.

I like Delilah much more, but I don't think it's really usable. So if someone held a gun to my head and said I had to name my daughter one or the other, I'd choose Colette.

OTOHI checked Delilah's statistics and it's rocketed to 116 and will probably go higher. Obviously, it's usable. Changing my answer. Delilah.

I think I dislike Delilah least. Delilah sounds grown-up. It's just nms.
Colette just sounds so utterly trivial, like it could be a word for a plastic poker chip.

Colette definitely.
