These are two feminine versions of masculine names in my wider family tree. Whilst I’m aware of other feminine names being derived from masculine names these two have always sounded less popular to me than Charlotte or Georgina etc. WDYT of Alberta and Jamesina?

Aw, I really like them. I'm partial to feminizations of names -- the unwieldier the better!

I do prefer Albertine to Alberta, though.

I don't like them. I love Charlotte and Georgina is nice. I haven't really figured out what my reasoning behind which ones I like and don't.

Not a fan of Alberta. It’s not feminine at all, clunky, awkward. All I think of is Canada.

I really like Jamesina. I think it’s underrated. Similar to Josephine imo. I pronounce it with four syllables.

Aside from Robert I'm not a big fan of names with 'bert' in them, especially in girl names.

Jamesina is ok, but I like James itself for a boy or girl.

I like quite a few 'feminizations' of boy names, like Georgina, Jacomina, Thomasina, etc
