Alina - Pretty, but a little too trendy-sounding for me.
Elina - Same as for
AlinaFiona - Not a HUGE fan, but good especially as a MN
Miranda - Like it
Celine - Like it
Niamh - Pretty, but I would only use it as a MN
Emmeline - Better than
Emma or
EmilyAlda - Cute
Adelaid - A little harsh sounding for my tastes, but it can go on the maybe list
Esme - Pretty
Esmeralda - Pretty, but gives the impression of a hokey carnival fortune teller to me.
Juno - Noo...
Leah - Depends on how you pronounce it. As "lee" or "lee-ah" I like it.
Molly - Cute
Noa - Honestly not sure how I feel about this one, but it may grow on me so it can go on the maybe list.
Also, two things. In my family it's a tradition to give the first daughter the MN
Michelle. I'd like to keep the tradition, but if you couldn't like or at least get used to
Michelle then of course we won't use it. And are their any variations of
Lily that you like or would consider, as it is my favorite girl's name.
