Esmée or
Renée - although I love the brassy charm of
Renee, I've known to many awful people with this name. Plus, I prefer it for a boy. So,
Esmee it is.
Eve or
Eva? I like
Eve. It sounds shifty.
Olivia or
Octavia?
Octavia, no question.
Soleil or
Mireille?
Mireille.
Kennedy or
Reagan?
Reagan, but it's because of The Exorcist, not the president :)
Maristella or
Candelaria?
Candelaria. So goth!
Brontë or
Austen?
Bronte. It's so clumsy!
Cheyenne or
Dakota?
Cheyenne. I do legitimately think it's pretty.
Lucy or
Eleanor?
Lucy. So cute!
Juliana or
Mariana?
Juliana. I love "
Jules" as a nn.
Lorelei or
Leilani?
LorelaiLilo or Zazu? Neither, skip
Saylor or
Scout?
Saylor. But I'd prefer it spelled correctly. I do actually think Sailor is a pretty and neo-romantic name.
Stella or
Lily?
Stella, though I'd prefer
Estelle.
Adriana or
Ariana?
Adriana.
Ariana is fluff and nonsense.
