These are the best names for females. My criteria is strictly how mellifluous they sound, how they flow off the tongue and enter the ear in a pleasing tone, nothing else. I docked points for over-use, though. If every other girl in your town is named Jennifer, it ain't gonna make the list, you know?

1) Olivia - Just a gorgeous name, period.

2) Laura - the best 2-syllable name ever. The more casual "Laurie," however, is not.

3) Samantha - Very pretty name, and one of the few that when shortened to a nickname - "Sam" - is still pretty darn cute.

4) Sarah - Apparently, Jews are good at naming chicks.

5) Sofia - This one has fallen out of fashion over the last few years, but it's still a beautiful-sounding name.

6) Rachel - Like I said...Jews and names go together.

7) Jessica - Docked a few points for over-use, but still a gorgeous name.

8) Isabelle/Isabella - Spanish flavor always works.

9) Katerina/Katherine - but only the K name, not the C ones, for some odd reason. And shortening it to "Kathy" is awful.

10) Siobhán - Some Celtic madness for the last name on the list. Bonus points if you know how to actually pronounce it.

Shannon

I think how you feel about a name depends a lot on the people you've known with those names. Like, the only girl I've ever known named Olivia was a fat bitch, so I think Olivia sucks. Conversely, I've never known a girl named Lindsey that I haven't wanted to nail really badly, so I think that's an awesome name.

Also, I love boy names on girls. Shawn and Jordan are two that come to mind. Samantha also works cause I'd be calling her Sam.

Sophia was the #1 girl's name of last year on a lot of US lists.

The Hills has ruined the name Lauren, imo.

Mallory is starting to get overused, but I like that one. Same goes for Kimberly. Other good ones: Shelby, Raina, April, Charlotte, and Taylor.

Bad name: Ruby. It's a big one in the UK now, unfortunately.

BTW, The Hills Ruined more than just the name Lauren

i knew a girl named justine once and she was somethin special. really awesome name

for guys i think sean and mat are the best.

Porn star.

Fat bitch.

Ugly.

Hot Power Ranger.

Fat bitch.

Ugly.

Spider.

Ugly pothead dude.

Not a good name to start with.

So that's one name I like, one I'm indifferent to, one I hated to start with, and seven that have been ruined by fat ugly bitches.

lololol.....Landon, that was great. "Spider."

olivia sucks in my experience

I've always liked Heidi.

Good names:
Danielle
Dana
Jennifer
Jessica
Maria
Sara

Terrible Names:
Emily
Hillary
Rita
Holly
Bertha
Brenda

Does anyone younger than 80 have these names?

Hillary and Holly I have always liked for some reason. Maybe we view the names of girls we have had goo experiences with in a better light?

I'm pretty sure this thread devolves into "Name your attractive female acquaintances".

Have known 2 girls in my life named Holly...both hot, just dont like name.

Hillary is a name of a a friend, I was in her wedding actually. Cute girl, just dont like name.


And yes I literally went through my phone and pulled out some names and thought about the names, not the person I associated them with.

For example:

Danielle is first I listed, I just like the name but I know have had numerous experiences with Danielles

One is my best female friend, beautiful girl by far
One is a girl I randomly **** who was a cutter and a suicide girl, averageish looking
One is my friends ex girlfriend, she is super loud annoying and chubby

..those are just ones I currently know, so the person doesnt make the name foe me,
