Which name would you choose, and why?

    I think they're all beautiful! I myself would go for Noor, because I love old Dutch names. But you can't go wrong with any of them!

    Noor or Aimée!
    Noor is just really short and spunky, but very nice!
    I think Aimée sounds beautiful, but how exactly do you pronounce it?

    I’m not really a fan of the name Ella. I know someone who’s quite old who’s called Ella, so to me, the name feels a bit old-fashioned. But I also don’t find the name that beautiful, sorry.
    Good luck with your choice!

    Thanks for the comments! Aimée is pronounced in the French way, so eh-mee. That's exactly our hesitation with this name, that people don't know how to pronounce it when they read it and Ella is nice but we had a bit of the same doubt, whether it shouldn't remind too much of the name Ellen from "the past" and thus be a bit old-fashioned.
    Noor is a favorite! No doubt about the name itself but the only "downside" is that the name is very popular and therefore common.

    @anoniem; maybe it's different in my circle, but I only know a few 'Noren'. They're not in the same age group or class as mine.

    I think Noor is the cutest name. It sounds so cheerful and lively. I also really like Ella. Aimee, I find a bit less appealing.

    Ella! We have one here who is 3 months old... got super good and lots of reactions... we were startled that everyone thought it was so beautiful.

    Noor is my favorite. So fresh and modern, without sounding stiff. Ella is also beautiful, but quite common. Aimée seems a bit old-fashioned to me. What you ultimately choose depends on your own taste, of course. But personally, I think Noor has the nicest sound.
