Almost all of those names, when I look at them I picture a baby girl to see if the name fits. TBH those "old" names are pretty when put to a baby. When I think Iris, I think of a pretty flower. Helena sounds powerfuly to me, as I think of the Greek goddess Helena or perhaps I'm confused with Helen of Troy. Ingrid, I went to school with an Ingrid, she spoke french but her family were not from France but from a french speaking country south of France. I try not to think of people when thinking of names. I think of pretty names that sound soft and loving. Hope is common but means a lot. One of my cousins has the middle name of Hope and her sister has the middle name of Grace. My aunt is very spiritual, and has two angel babies before her eldest.
