I actually have a major soft spot for Frances, and I really like Fran as well. It reminds me of The Nanny and Fran Fine.

---

I want to like Saskia because it looks cool but I just hate the sound, it’s grating.

---

I’ve been going back and forth with Nancy, trying to decide wether I like it myself.

I would be very careful using the name Nancy - look up the slang meaning, it isn't nice. Frances is fine as a middle name, but too old and dusty sounding as a first name. I very much like Saskia, it would suit a wide range of people

Saskia > Nancy > Frances
All of them sounds vintage and beautiful.

I like Francis on a boy, not keen on Frances as a FN but warming to it as MN. Nancy is tired and trite. Saskia doesn't appeal to me personally.

I like Saskia & Nancy, but I don’t like Frances.

Saskia sounds pleasantly silky. I like the association with Rembrandt's wife.

Frances is sensible, sensitive, shy. A poorly dressed librarian.

---

Nancy sounds nasal and nosy and bossy, and reminds me of homophobic insults.

I like all of them. I think Saskia is very cool and I was pretty excited when I met one. Frances is really growing on me, it's cute and I love Frankie. I'm even warming up to Fran and Franny.

Nancy is pretty cute. I like Nance a lot.

I like Frances (f), but I like Francis (m) much better.
Nancy doesn't happen where I live; I like it very much and don't think of it as a nn at all.
Saskia is OK if it's accurate. Not being of Saxon descent, that I know of, I wouldn't use it just because it sounds nice.

I like Saskia, don't like the others
