Oh wow, a collection of some of my favorite names! Lol, the list feels quite Victorian. I like:

---

Genevieve
Anastasia
Penelope
Juliette (though I prefer Juliet)
Gabriella
Vivienne
Celeste
Josephine
Eleanor
Evangeline
Cordelia
Octavia
Lillian

I used to like Adelaide and Sophia, but I got sick of them. And I vastly prefer Amalia to Amelia, which has "meal" in the middle of it (and makes me think of "mealy"). Aurora is difficult for me to say, unless it's very slowly, and Beatrice (and Beatrix) sound like orders - like you're telling someone to be a... something.

---

My least favorites from this list are Rosalind, which has always sounded cold and standoffish to me (and I'm not even partial to -lind names), and Clementine, because "clem" is, imo, one of the least attractive syllables ever. Reminds me of phlegm, except somehow worse.
