Solstice sounds cool as a word, but is too much a word and not namey enough. I don't like Bliss for a name. I do like Dove and Meadow, but I wouldn't use them myself in real life. April is fine, but I have a thing where, while I like some month/season names, I find it weird to be named after a month/season you weren't born in, but incredibly dull and uncreative to be named after the season/month you were born in.

April is nice, but I doubt I'd care for it at all (the ape sound) if I had never known people named it.

Bliss is pretty hokey.
Dove is too much an endearment.
They are usable but I would not like addressing someone by either of them. I think Bliss would be easier to get used to, than Dove.

Meadow is a bit flakey, but in a way that doesn't bother me. It's just nqms.

Solstice seems to be trying very hard to seem "pagan" / hip, and is too tongue-twisty to use as a name. Three S sounds is too many imo

The only one I like is April.

I like April, the others are rather words than names to me.
Though I really like the sound of Dove.

Dove and Solstice appeal to me the most as given names. April is too associated with the month and sounds like ape. I find the combo of apr kinda awkward. Bliss is a little too hippie for me (although I do like the idea of Blessing which is not really similar in meaning but kinda close in some sounds). Meadow is clunky even though the idea is nice.

I like April
