I like both of these names well enough; I'd be excited to see either used, and if I saw that someone was considering using either, my first reaction would probably be something like approval. Whenever I consider adding either to my PNL, though, I always hesitate. I don't think it's a feeling of "I'd like to see this on somebody else's kid but wouldn't use it myself" that's holding me back - and it's definitely not bad associations - so I can't put my finger on what exactly about either of these names I'm not 100% sold on. What are your thoughts on
Eloise and
Josephine? Care to sell me on (or talk me out of any affectionate feelings toward) either?
