I love my name. I used to think it was old ladyish, but now I see it as more classic and strong. I also like that it's not overly popular for my age group, I've never met a Joan or Joanie my age. The only people I know are my Granny and my Goddaughter. My MN is Roseann, my Granny's is Adell, and my Goddaughter's is Kathren Nicole.

... is my MIL
I have mixed feelings about her (my mother-in-law, I mean -- and doesn't everyone have mixed feelings about their in-laws?), and by extension about her name. But it appeals to me, all connections to her notwithstanding. From your list I like:
Joan Adelaide
Joan Amarantha
Joan Arabella
Joan Araminta
Joan Augusta (I really like this rhythm despite the fact that I don't even like Augusta at all)
Joan Aurelia
Joan Beatrice
Joan Beatrix
Joan Camellia (Camellia is a fave of mine)
Joan Cecilia
Joan Cecily
Joan Celestine
Joan Clementina
Joan Clementine
Joan Cordelia
Joan Corisande
Joan Cressida
Joan Delila (I prefer Delilah with the H)
Joan Dorothea
Joan Eleanor
Joan Elisabetta (though I like Elisabella better)
Joan Eloise

It's always been doubled sided for me. On one hand there's Joan of Arc and my sister choice Joan as her confirmation name, on the other hand I think of Joan Rivers and all of that plastic surgery.
