I never met other Elise's until this week but I always get kind of depressed when I meet other people with my name..

I'm really not a fan of one syllable names like Femme and Bea, which seem more appropriate as nicknames for longer names. Shan is the name I go by (nn for Shannon), so I'm a bit partial to this one, but am glad that I have the longer Shannon to fall back on for more formal situations. I like Bea as a nn for Beatrix.
The others I like are Cosette and Ina. It is unfortunate that Elise has become so common. I live about a girl named Anneliese, and have really grown to like this similar sounding name.

Chiara - like it
Agnija - not my style
Cosette - don't like it
Anastasia - love this name!
Shan - don't like the way it sounds.
Bea - like it as a nickname for Beatrice
Ketmara - never heard of this
Ina - not my style
Ateiram - never heard of this
Femme - ick. Makes me think of butch and femme lesbians. There's nothing wrong with being a lesbian, but Femme doesn't look like it should be a name.
I love Elise, and I'm surprised that it's getting very popular.

Great name selection! Ketmara and Ateiram are interesting; Ketmara is apparently a switched-around version of Marketa, and Ateiram is Marieta reversed.
I'm hoping Shan is Chinese and Femme is Dutch. I quite like the sound of Femme in Dutch, but it would be much too easily confused with the French word here.

Too many Elise's? That's strange.

Lol, Femme is how my mom, sister, and I refer to tampons when my little brothers are around... "Mom, when your out can you get me some femmes"
I really like the rest of the list, except Ketmara and Ateiram. They kind of sound Star Wars-y to me for some reason.

Femme is the French noun for "woman," or sometimes "wife." I never though people would actually bestow it on a person as their name...
However, I L-O-V-E Anastasia!!!
