Great list! I won't make any suggestions because you too many great names to chose from. I voted for Nora, here are my thoughts:

Amelia - lovely name with great nn options: Mia, Lia, or Millie. However, this name has recently broke into the top 100 on the SSA baby list (number 84). So while this name might not be that common in your area, it is growing in popularity by leaps and bounds. For that reason I would go with something else

Annabelle - This is one my favs and I think that it ages well. Anna and Belle names are very popular right now, so that is why I didn't vote for this name. However, I think that Annie is too cute!

Anneliese/Annelise - I like the Annelise spelling the best. This is a pretty name, but I think that it is a long name and I tend to like less frilly names. Annelise is a long name to learn to write :)

Cora - love this! It was second fav on your list. So sweet on a child, but I picture a strong woman with this name.

Corrine - this is nice, you could also do Corrine/Corina, nn Cora

Grace - this is classic choice, but it so popular right now (number 14!) that unless you love this name, I would go with something else.

Jocelyn - I really like this name too! I think that Jocelyn, nn Josie is adorable. Would you use a nn? If so, I might switch my vote to Jocelyn :)

Nora - This a great choice. It is not too juvenile and I love how Nora's meaning - bright one; honor.

What mn have you chosen?

Good luck,
Brooke

What a tough decision!!! I voted for Nora b/c it is a great balance of sweet and strong- I like it on a little girl and a woman. I also really like Jocelyn, Anneliese, Cora, and Corrine (but I think I'd prefer Corinne spelling). Good luck w/ your decision!

I voted Corinne....but Cora and Nora were options.

I like Corinne Grace with a long last name.

(one of my FAV names is Corinthianne /Corinth but everyone else hated it)
