[Opinions] Re: Real Life Estella Sitting!!
I chose Ester for my daughter because I was worried Estelle would become too popular. Estella is a lovely take on the name. I'm not a fan of the character in Great Expectations, which is the only thing that puts me off, but it's a name that stands well on its own. I love Essie as a nn,and will be using it for my Ester. Clarisse is an elegant middle choice.

Ester is a nice choice. What middle did you go with if it's allowed to ask?
She has my brother's initials, so I needed a W middle name. I don't like most W names for girls, but I found Wivina and fell in love, so she's Ester Wivina. Her sister is Solveig :)
