I do like this game format, seems like it vanished for a while.Edna
Mildred
Esther
Edith
OlgaBerhta - I think they're all not my taste, but Berhta at least has weirdness added as a cherry on top?
Geretrudis - ditto. Gertruda might be a second choice.
Estera and Esteri are actually very pretty, even extremely pretty! I think Estera might be a MN option that I would go for if I were to have kids cos it's unusual but not too unusual, and I think it sounds very pretty. Esther itself is nice if a bit shy and retiring. Hester would be similar if it weren't for unfortunate personal connotations. And Esfir is kinda cool too.
Edita is cute as all that too. Honestly, if I saw a sibset of Estera and Edita I'd be like '10/10, 5 stars', that'd be adorable as all. Edith itself is too wispy for me, Edita has more fire.

Edna: because I met a high schooler named Edna last year and it worked for her.
Mildred: because Millie.
Esther: possible nickname Essie. I like them both tbh.
Edith: because I like it and Irma is insufferable.
Hilda: because it sounds the most modern. I like Olga too.Bertha. All the variants are just as bad if not worse.Gertrude. Same as Bertha.Esther. I like Ester and Hester too.Edith.
