[Opinions] Re: comments on these names pls

Vera is a nice name, but I struggle to pronounce it, so that turns me away unfortunately.
Cassandra has always been a top favorite of mine; I love its beautiful appearance, melodic sound, long history, and even the nicknames are cute! I think Kassandra is also nice, but I much prefer the Cassandra spelling.
Annie is a beautiful name that I've always adored, though the only downside is the "Orphan Annie" associate (even though I've always loved the story, and that's what made me like the name).
Narcissa isn't really my cup of tea, because it unfortunately reminds me of the word "narcissist".
Viola is a gorgeous flower and musical instrument, but as a string's player, I can only think of the instrument (Though, Viola Davis is a great associate!)
Lorraine is such a stunning name, and I love its French elegance.
Valentina is a beautiful, romantic-sounding name in my opinion...but I'd probably consider it as a guilty pleasure name.
Tatiana is a quaint sounding, princess-like name that has long history and international usage- I adore it, and it's one of my favorites!
Martha is a charming, warm sounding, classic name that I have always admired! I'd without hesitation call a daughter Martha! My only qualm at all with the name Martha is its potential nickname- "Marty" (I don't like that at all on a girl).
Gudrun is an alright name, but it wouldn't be my first pick; I do appreciate its history and meaning, however!
Olga is a name that I used to abhor, but now I think it sounds warm and gentle. Olga is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine.
