Georgia is by far the best but I could live with Serena.

Journey · 30/12/2011 11:30

Hermione - ugly bulky name
Seren - not keen
Georgia - nice
Rowan - best for a boy

oikopolis · 29/12/2011 21:21

Hermione - lovely, bit Harry Potter these days.
Seren - gorgeous
Georgia - nice
Rowan - bit masculine

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/12/2011 21:19

Hermione - love it
Seren - don't like
Georgia - don't like but love Georgiana
Rowan - only like it for a boy

BelleTheBeatnik · 28/12/2011 22:46

I think the Harry Potter connotations are a little too strong atm for Hermione, but maybe it will become a bit more usable in time?
I quite like Rowan, but prefer Seren or Georgia for a little girl. Agree with mollymole - have you considered Rowena?

mollymole · 28/12/2011 15:06

what about Rowena - sounds good with Amalie

3isamagicnumber · 28/12/2011 14:36

Hermione - too Harry Potter / too trying too hard
Seren - not really come across this name - not sure
Georgia - like it!
Rowan - too unisex

So Georgia for me!!

liveinazoo · 28/12/2011 12:04

def not georgia.popular with mums who also have kylies and charyls and aimees where i live,so i associate with gobby little monsters!Blush.love the other three though.seren my favourite

LaFilleSurLePont · 28/12/2011 11:58

Seren or Georgia. They're both beautiful.

Rowan only works for a boy imho.

Hermione is ugly.

TheAnnoyingSatsuma · 27/12/2011 19:56

Hermione sounds quite similar to Amalie.

Not keen on the others - what about Robyn or Romy instead of Rowan?

Doozie · 27/12/2011 19:54

Hermione is my favourite from your list.

Lonnie · 27/12/2011 19:53

Seren by far the best Hermione is lovely i dont care for Georgia or Rowan they are to harsh sounding for my liking

chocjunkie · 27/12/2011 19:48

rowan is by far the best of your list. also like georgia but not keen on the other two.

BoxingBiddy · 27/12/2011 19:40

I love Seren.

Hermione is OK

Dislike Rowan and really dislike Georgia.

BroomBuBuBum · 27/12/2011 19:40

Rowan is beautiful, I love it. Classic, elegant and unusual. Would of been DD's name if DP hadn't vetoed it.

MerylStrop · 27/12/2011 19:38

Love Hermione, would have had it for DD (but it got bumped because of the middle name we wanted), or if DS2 had been a girl.
Love Rowan too, very different to your other choices though.
I know a few Serens, including a male one. And oodles of Georgias, but I don't think it's as nice as the other names

wonkytree · 27/12/2011 19:35

Hermion is very pretty, if you can get past the Harry Potter bit! People will always struggle to spell it though.

BastedTurkey · 27/12/2011 19:05

Used to love Georgia but now quite over-used - 4 in DD3s primary school of 140. Hermione is my fave

ChippingInLovesChristmasLights · 27/12/2011 17:55

Georgia by a long way!

AnotherMincepie · 27/12/2011 17:53

Hermione - nice, pretty yet a little edgy, rather posh
Seren - getting quite overdone now, prefer Serena
Georgia - like
Rowan - dislike, too unisex, Rowan Williams/Atkinson, prefer Rowena

All lovely bar Rowan. Hermione is really lovely, and is my favourite by far, but Seren and Georgia are also pretty.

EdithWeston · 27/12/2011 17:21

Hermione

karentokylie · 27/12/2011 17:21

Hermione = too try-hard
Seren = traveller's name (OK if you're a traveller, I guess)
Georgia = lovely
Rowan = OK, bit masculine.

WhereBeThatBlackbirdTo · 27/12/2011 17:20

I love Seren. I'd not heard of it before joining MN
