[Opinions] Then...
I did some digging and found some various names that I liked in the past. I've marked those that I would still use:Nina Celeste - I still adore this. It's very spunky and classic to me.Ivy Perpetua - My boyfriend still wants to use this, now I see Perpetual Ivy aka Perpetual WeedMiriam Judith - I love, but I think Judith Cecilia is stronger

Liora Temperance - Adore this, but again I don't think I'd use it. Liora Helen oR Liora Magdalene is more to my tasteAviva Helen - Totally overVeronica Nava - I much prefer Veronica Mercy now...though I still love and wish to use NavaAbram Elias - Love Abram, don't really care for Elias. I wish I could use AbramJonas Allan - Love this, much prefer to Joss or JosephPeter Raphael - Peter is still my favorite name, and I love with Raphael.

Ezra Llyr - Totally overJulian Santiago - DittoMiles Nathaniel - DittoNava Clarity - I adore this and would love to use it.

Nina Celeste - Very feminine, but not saccharine-sweet. I like it, but it's not something I'd useIvy Perpetua - haha! It does rather sound like a sturdy variety of climber!Miriam Judith - like each, but not together. Judith Cecilia's great.Nava Clarity - sounds a little like a product by-line, for either a skin cleanser or financial services (Get Clarity! Get NAVA (tm) Clarity!)From your list, I'd really like to see these ones more often:
Daphne
Eve (vastly prefer this to whingy-sounding Ava)
Helen
Ivy
Judith
Kerensa
Miriam
Naomi
Nina
Rivka
Sigrid
Siofra
Sylvia
Tabitha
Theda
Veronica
Abram
Allan
Amadeus
Amos
Anders
Erasmus
Jerome
Laurence
Leif
Lev
Miles
Neil
Peter
Simon
Tancred- okay, but the list needs more operatic names, then!

Nina Celeste - I'm not a fan of Celeste but I absolutely adore Nina. I agree, it's totally spunky and really, really cool.Ivy Perpetua - I adore Ivy but I agree about Perpetua = perpetual. But I really don't like it anyway.Miriam Judith - I prefer Judith as a firstname (mainly beacuse the attraction of Jude as a nn is huge) but this combo is definetely a classic and very elegant. Liora Temperance - I'm not sure if I feel that Liora is perhaps a bit contrived but this combo is stil cute. Magdalene and Helen are both wonderful.Aviva Helen - OK but not bad.Veronica Nava - Not at all a fan of Nava but I really like Nova. Veronica is sweet and growing on me a lot.Abram Elias - I like Elias (although I would never use it) but I see Abram as an old man. Jonas Allan - I also prefer Joseph (or Joshua) with a nn Joss and I see Allan as an middle aged man. It's really dated. Peter Raphael - Dislike both.Ezra Llyr - I like Ezra but amn't keen on the combo.

Finally someone who likes Tabitha!I've gotten so many comments about cats and witches that I've had to put it away.Aviva was my favorite name for years and was slowly replaced by Liora.

I love Tabitha!

AvivaAviva makes me think of the Spanish word "viva," which always makes me laugh for no reason whatsoever. I don't even know what it means. I love Tabitha! It's not PNL-worthy yet, but it's pretty close.

Viva pretty much means 'life' or 'long live' in Spanish. For example 'Viva Las Vegas' means 'Long live Las Vegas'.
