Paltrow. She has really good chemistry with RDJ.
 
I'll wait until I see Black Panther to vote but for now I'd go with Haley Atwell. Paltrow and Downey have undeniable chemistry but I just don't really care much for her.

And Zendaya wasn't the love interest in Homecoming, that should be Liz on the poll.
 
Peggy Carter because she's the only one that got a tie-in series to really delve into her love & loss.
 
I voted for Pepper. I'm not usually a fan of Paltrow, but I actually really like her as Pepper and she and RDJ have genuine chemistry which elevates their scenes with each other.
 
Nakia from Black Panther. By a million miles.
 
For overall franchise, Pepper Potts. Single film, Peggy Carter. Peggy also wins the eye candy department, so she gets the vote :hehe:
 
Paltrow and RDJ have real 'zinger' chemistry, their interplay is very strong and two actors who are at ease with each other.
 
wow i forgot about liv tyler, hope they bring her back in infinity war
 
Although I found Evangeline Lilly hot as hell in Ant-Man I have to vote for Peggy Carter.
 
Tough call between Peggy and Gamora for me. Both aren't just damsels but powerful and fierce in their own right, both played by talented and gorgeous actresses. However Gamora just has slightly more to her for me, and the more interesting back story.
 
1. Pepper Potts.
2. Peggy Carter.
3. Nakia.
 
After seeing Black Panther, I'd rank Nakia pretty close to the top of the list for just being a well-rounded character.

wow i forgot about liv tyler, hope they bring her back in infinity war

I doubt they'll ever bring her back since they still seem to be pushing the Banner/Romanov romantic subplot judging from Thor: Ragnarok and the IW trailer.
 
Still gotta go with Pepper though Peggy is a close 2nd.
 
Gamora, although I consider her more of her own superhero rather than a typical love interest.
 
Before seeing Black Panther I would say Tony and Pepper seemed the most realistic couple. However Agent Carter and Captain Rogers was the most needed as part of the story
 
I voted for Pepper as well because her chemistry with Stark is probably the best chemistry as far as love stories go in the MCU...no one can even hold a candle to them
