Virginia is my choice. I like both of the other choices too, though.

Daisy!! I LOVE this name, as to me, it has a sweet and feminine sound which I love. It's just gorgeous!

I have the impression that Virginia ("Ginny" not "Virgie") is very classy. I guess because I only ever seem to see it on people who are, well, classy. Well-off, well-educated, well-groomed, well-mannered etc. But it's not pompous - it doesn't work at seeming classy.

Daisy is nmsaa, spunkified/childish/trivial and reminds me of Daisy Buchanan. Olivia is nice, but comes off as a little chilly to me, and I'm not thrilled by its history. Virginia intimidates me a little, but I guess I'd pick it from those three since Ginny seems unpretentious.

Virginia! It reminds me of a cross between a charming Southern belle and a stalwart feminine go-getter.

Virginia... Olivia's overused and Daisy makes me think of livestock more than people... Virginia's nice enough and not overused at all these days.

Olivia, no contest

---

Daisy is so cutesy, and I really dislike the "virgin" element of Virginia.

Virginia

---

I love it, it's #2 on our list. It's such a beautiful name. It's elegant and mature, but upbeat and bright. It's jewelly colors and has a gardeny, domestic feel. I'm very happy that my DH likes it too so I might be able to use it someday!

Olivia, because it's the prettiest and it ages well.

Daisy -- because Olivia is done to death and as nice as Virginia is, I see potential teasing with the 'virgin' bit. Daisy isn't ideal either since there's the perception by some of it being flaky or less sophisticated.

Olivia

---

because Virginia just seems too open to teasing, and Daisy wouldn't age well.

Olivia

---

I know it's super popular, but I think Olivia is such a pretty name.

---

I would take Virginia next. I have a lot of respect for it but I don't particularly find it to be attractive.

---

Daisy I just don't like. It strikes me as being empty and trendy and silly in a way that other flower names don't seem to.

Virginia

---

Virginia was my grandmother's name, and I think it has a more refined, grown-up look to it than Olivia or Daisy, which I prefer in a named. I also really like the nickname Ginny.

Virginia

---

Daisy seems ditzy, and Olivia has never appealed to me. So Virginia it is.

Olivia but I don't like any of them.

I like all three names

---

I would pick Daisy .It is a pretty name and it is not common name.

---

Daisy.

---

Olivia is disgustingly trendy atm, and although it is a lovely name (the nn Livvy is super cute too), I am so bored by it these days. Virginia is another beautiful name, but the "Virgin-" part would not be helpful to any child, and I don't feel virginity is something to value. The nn Ginny is adorable though.

---

Daisy is a nature name, and I love those. As with most nature names, I don't feel I'd actually use Daisy, but it's beautiful nonetheless. I think it is substantial... It feels spunky to me. To me, it's the name of a headstrong girl with pep and attitude.

Daisy

I live Olivia, too. Virginia is okay. They're all different personalities. You know what I mean? So you've got to keep that in mind if you're naming a character in a book. Or even a real baby. I had a friend that settled on a name for her baby that she absolutely loved, but when the baby was born she decided that it didn't fit his personality and chose a different name. I don't know what kind of personality a baby has that is only a few hours old and hasn't really opened his eyes. She saw it, though.

Olivia, because I don't see Virginity as a virtue and Daisy is cute but a little dippy. Also I really love Olivia, even though it is super common and will be super dated.

Virginia

---

Olivia is pretty, but a little too frilly with it's L and V and four syllables. Also, it's trendy right now.

---

Daisy is sweet, but I would only like it as a nickname for the more substantial name Margaret.

---

Virginia is feminine, but not too frilly. It's more stable in terms of popularity. It has a lot more history, it can be a namesake for the Virgin Mary, and I like the nickname Ginny.

Daisy becayse it's the prettiest

I would choose Daisy.

---

Olivia is too boring and common. Also I wouldn't use it because my brothers name is Oliver and it's too similar.

---

Virginia is too open to teasing nicknames, and I also think it sounds too pretentious and posh. I like Ginny though.

---

Daisy is a little bit childish sounding for me, but it's my favourite of the 3.

Virginia!

---

It's home-y to me and quaint, and at the same time it's elegant and regal. Olivia is stale to me and Daisy's all right, but Virginia is a gold brick found in a mudhole.

I'd go with Virginia. It's dignified sounding, not too popular, and it lends itself to Ginny, which I like.

---

While I really like Olivia, it's far too popular these days, and I already have a family member with that name.

---

Daisy is a cute name, but it's too sweet and childlike for me. I think it's better as a nickname.

Virginia. It's sophisticated, elegant and I like the nn Ginny.

---

Olivia is very common and Daisy is a bit flimsy and insubstantial, imo.

Olivia, I've always loved it and it's a beautiful name.

---

Daisy is just too cutesy for me and I've never really liked Virginia that much.

Daisy for me. It's a name I've liked for a long time, it's so fresh and wide-awake and makes me think of naughty 1920's girls.

---

Daisy Virginia would actually be a nice combo!
