Do you mean Aida?

After the Sarah Mclachlan song?

Quite like it

Yes like the song rather than Aida

Love it so much I've joined mumsnet to tell you! It's on our short list too if we have another DD. I looked up the meaning and it's Swahili for 'gift' which is gorgeous too. I think the main issue will be people thinking the name is Ada/Aida initially, but I love it. Would have used it for DD but DP was concerned she'd have to spell it to everyone, however after a couple more years of nagging I may have won that argument! If you love it, use it.

Ah thank you! I need to have a girl first though! It's just always a name I've loved.

Welcome to Mumsnet by the way!

It's lovely & what a beautiful song!
