Angela's basic in a sweet classic way. It's dated enough that I wouldn't expect it to be uber popular anytime soon but not so much that I dislike it. I can still easily see it as a kid name. Maybe 3/10 dated, with 10 being unusably archaic?
I like
Angelica because I think it sounds baroque, and it's also botanical. I don't really prefer it to
Angela; it's just different.
Angelique sounds sassy and kind of austere. I picture a nun or a punk rocker. I like it but wouldn't use it.
Angelina sounds more soft and princessy. The elaboration doesn't add to it imo. I don't think it's a bad name, but it's my least favorite.
