I love Julia, it's been quite popular in my area for awhile (New England). It's my daughter's middle name. My husband's grandmother was always called Jean but was christened Julia, so I compromised with him as I am not a fan of Jean. I love it because it is feminine and old-fashioned!

Julie is too 70s for me, and Juliana is too much of a mouthful for me.

Where I live, it's nearly always Julie, not as a nick-name, but the given name.

It's always been in my top ten, usually in the top two, favorites. It's The Perfect Name imo, except that I've found people seem to perceive it as stuckup.

Julia is my #1 Girl's name right now.

Julia Mary

Sorry if any of these are repeats.

Juliette

nt.

Well, obviously I love it. ;) It's feminine but not frilly and well-known but not trendy. I do wish it was a bit less popular, though. Since preschool there's always been at least one other Julia in my class(es).

I used to have a really bad association with the name and strongly disliked it. I've recently really warmed to it despite this, though I'm still not sure I'd use it. I adore the song by the Beatles, I think Julia was the name of John's mother and that makes the song more touching for me.

Julia and Chloe are the two names that remain on my list despite their popularity. I don't think I'd use Julia for that reason, but I do think it's a wonderful gorgeous name.

I love Julia!

Julia Anne
Julia Ellen
Julia Marie
Julia Michelle
Julia Nicole
Julia Shea

For some reason I really dislike the name Julia although I simply love the male variant Julian. I really prefer Julianna, Juliet or Julienne/Julianne for a girl, but I can certainly appreciate the Beatles phase. A lot of respectable names can be taken from Beatles songs. Lucy immediately comes to mind.

It's one of my favorite names: not too complicates but classy.

---

The only combos I can think of are:
Julia Helen
Julia Katherine (or any other spelling)
Julia Eleanor
Julia Anne

I have always loved Julia and Juliana. Probably because my favorite actress is Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Anyway:

Julia Elaine
Julia Marie
Julia Rebecca
Julia Claire
Julia Ann
Julia Rachelle
Julia Rose
Julia Grace
Julia Marlie
Julia Elise
Julia Kathryn
Julia Michelle

I'll post more later.

I really like it. I never used to, I prefered Juliana and Juliet but Julia I like best now. Comes from reading a lot of Jane Austen I think, I see it as a very Austenian name for some reason.

Julia is one of those names I think I should like (along with Victoria, Andrew, etc) that I just don't. I think Juliet is pretty, though.

I love Julia!

---

And the Beatles! Beatles also made me start liking Astrid, Winston, Paul, Eleanor, and Julian. (Rita for a while, too, but that's gone.)

---

Julia Frances and Julia Persephone spring to mind, although you probably don't want to disturb your existing combos.

From your list:
Julia Camille
Julia Helen
Julia Helena (depending on how you pronounce it)
Julia Margot
Julia Matilda
Julia Octavia
Julia Penelope
Julia Septima
Julia Urania

It's a lovely name, classical yet not overused. I like Julianne very much too.
Julia Evelyn
Julia Suzanne
Julia Margaret
Julia Caroline
