Thyra?

[Ondine]

Have just recently heard of this name and really like it, thinking of it as a definite possibility!

Would like to know what you think? It's not pronouced with a hard 't'. So Thyra not Tyra.

[rubyslippers]

nope

reminds me of Thyroid

[frazzledoldbag]

nooooooooooooooooooooo
sounds medical somehow.

[sweetkitty]

Not keen sorry, does sound too much like thyroid

What about
Thea
Taya
Talia
Tia
Tyla
Taylor

[PuzzleRocks]

Sounds like thong and lycra.

[dizzydixies]

why not Thora and be done with it

[nigglewiggle]

I also thought it was a medical issue until I saw it was posted under "baby names."

Sorry

[GossipMonger]

thyroid

[colditz]

thyroid

[Rindercella]

Nope sounds like a prescription drug.

[screamingskull]

agree with everyone else sounds as though it has something to do with your thyroid.

sorry

[Sparkletastic]

Having just written a 3-page letter about DD2's hypothyroidism can I add to the deafening shriek of "THYROID"!!

[masonicpixiesreadthedailymail]

and thighs. Makes me think of thighs. Mostly this is not an attractive thought

[Ondine]

Thanks for the replies, it's a resounding no then.

I can see what you mean about the prescription drug thing.

It's an old royal name, Princess Thyra of Denmark... but I digress, I will think of some more names!

[BerylCole]

Deffo Thyroid.

[bellissima]

Agree with the others. And not Tia either - unless her middle name is Maria. Talia et al okay.

[Thusnelda]

I knew a Thyra once but she was German, so the pronounciation was Türa. And she was of a 'noble' family, the von suchandsuchs often give their children odd names.. I like it.

[sweetkitty]

Tia quite popular up here, 2 in DD1's new class, the Maria thing would put me off too though

[LilRedWG]

Hmmm - cross between Myra and thyroid? Sorry, it's a no from me.

[Ondine]

Interesting you say that Thusnelda, the setting in which I heard the name was quite high society. Not my usual scene I hasten to add but did think the name was truly unusual but still quite classical.

Though i'm getting the message almost everybody seems to think of a Thyroid which is not good.

Tia just reminds me of the yucky drink.

[WesternBelle]

Don't like it, sorry - sounds like Thyroid and Myra like somebody else said (not the most glamourous of associations! )

If you like Thyra how about Myrtle? Similar vein but just as different.

[Ondine]

Myrtle is nice although I think a little bit too staid? Though on the herb front Sorrel is on the list.

[masonicpixiesreadthedailymail]

I like sorrel
