Once again we are still unsure about which name to choose. We have now decided on either:

Charis (rhymes with Paris)

or

Tamsin

Please could you say which name you think is nicest. Our DD1 is called Valentina so bear that in mind too.
Thanks so much and this IS the last time I am going to ask for advice as I am SURE we can narrow it down to one after this!

Much prefer Tamsin.

Charis

Do you say it 'Caris' as in cat or Ch-aris as in child?

It reminds me of a story from classical mythology...can't remember though.

I really like Valentina but don't really particularly go for either of the others - sorry!

Yes, it's the Greek name Charis meaning "grace" rather than than the Welsh name Carys meaning "love".

I prefer Charis, but she may fall foul of those who are angered by names they can't sound out using standard English phonics.

Charis but is that the correct spelling?Confused

Lexx · 04/11/2010 19:52

Sorry incase you weren't sure Charis is said with a "K" sound
