Ophelia
*Love* Ophelia!
Ottilie -- I adore it. It's fun, classic, pretty, has old-fashioned charm. What's not to love?
Odilia -- I should like this one more than I do, since it's just as classic as Ottilie. But something holds me back. Perhaps it's the "Od-" part of it that just doesn't appeal.
Ophelia -- i'm a literary snob, so just about anything Shakespearean tickles my fancy. I just wish this character didn't have such a well known tradgic ending. Then again, Juliet's ending is perhaps even better known and I don't get this feeling. I'm thinking too much.

Sorry, meant to be under main post.
Ottilie and Odilia both remind me too much of parts of the ear. (Words like otitis and otoscope... I'm weird.)
I like Ophelia but it carries a bit more baggage than I like. I find it hard not to think of the insane and suicidal Ophelia from Hamlet.

I like them. They're rare and have nice meanings. Go for it :)
