Dulcet dainties are those distinctly girly, vintage-esque names whose charm lie very much in their petite proportions.

These are names that have been around for centuries, yet don't feel too tied down to one particular generation. They are girly, but not elaborate, and manage to trip the delicate line of being frilly without being frou-frou.

Most of these dainties are British in origin, but I've also thrown in the odd continental choice as well to add a bit of variety.
