It's not solving a puzzle like this that takes the most time, it's trying to find if there is more than one solution to the puzzle. I only found one.

Florence
Bertie/Agatha
Cyril
Edwin
Daphne

Well, I only know of one, and you got it! (If there's more than one, then I probably did something wrong when writing it.)
