    I'd choose Solveig. I think S looks nicer personally.

    Honestly... I wouldn't choose any of them myself...
    I'm standing in front of the class, at different schools, so I see lots of kids with different types of 'name-types'. Since I'm expecting a baby now and on the hunt for a name; I ask kids here and there what they think of their own name. With all the 'unique' and somewhat more sought-after names (ok, let's call them 'bakfiets names', the kids tell me they find it really annoying to have to repeat and spell their name all the time. I'd also love to go for a nice unique, uncommon name, but I do think about how it'll be for my kid later on.
    If my kid has to introduce themselves as 'Kiek' to a crush on their first date (hihi) or as 'Pluk' during their first part-time job... I can imagine they'd rather have been called Emma or Daan...

    Anna, I totally agree with you! I think wow, how did they come up with that? But there are so many lovely names that are becoming less common because people often go for popular names, so you still have something unique, I think!
    But it remains a super tricky thing, choosing a name, you do your best as a parent!

    They seem very energetic to me.
    These names
    But not really my taste, though quite cheerful. Personally, I wouldn't choose any of these. Is it for a boy or a girl?
    Kess might work, maybe.
    For a boy.
    For a girl, I thought the name Fay was quite special a long time ago. My niece is called Fay, and I started to find it a nice name, but at first I thought it was a bit too fairy-tale-like to name your child that.
    Now it has a bit of a magical feel to me, I think.
    Maybe an idea?

    I find all of them quite tricky names. Is it for a boy or a girl? Pluk, Skip, and Kik sound like cartoon characters to me. Kess and Bes are hard to imagine someone actually being called. I think Dido sounds nice for a girl when pronounced in English, like the singer! Zolveig seems really difficult to me.

    Maybe Kiet?
