Audrey, Dorothy, Ella and Carol
What are your thoughts on these four girls names? Which are your favourites and why?

Replies

Audrey - Timeless (my favorite)
Dorothy - Makes me think of my favorite Golden Girl. Not a fan of the name though.
Ella - Too nick-name-ish
Carol - Outdated and boring.
Audrey is middle-aged, plump and unremarkable in every possible way.
Dorothy is lively and alert.
Ella fades into the wallpaper.
Carol is better than Carole, but still not good. I far prefer Caroline.
Audrey I like, a good classic
Don't like the others
Dorothy is the only name of the four that I actively dislike.Ella is pretty, but sometimes it also sounds like... well, a sound as opposed to a name. Emma does the same thing to me. Like some sort of ubiquitous non-name.Out of Audrey & Carol, I think I prefer Audrey.
Dorothy, Carol, and Audrey are lovely, and I'd be thrilled to encounter them on young sisters. Ella is insubstantial and has never appealed to me.
Audrey- I don't like it. Too fancy sounding.
Dorothy- dated. Makes me think of the Wizard of Oz
Ella- Love this name! My favorite here
Carol- I already have a negative association with this name. Prefer Carolina.
My favorites are Audrey and Dorothy. They are cute but strong names.Ella is a close third, as I prefer other El* names.Carol is a name I don’t like tho.
Audrey reminds me of "tawdry" and Audrey Hepburn - two very different images. It's demure, not outwardly attractive. Like Frances.Carol is broad, warm, boring. Very dated.Dorothy is a bit TOO warm. Similar vibes to Audrey, but friendlier and broader.Ella is flimsy, but friendly.I think Ella is my favourite.
