Not ending in a but the Astrid I know has a sister Iris.

We considered Astrid and also had Vivienne and Marielle on our list.

I'm not doing very well on the a ending though!!

I have a Nina and a Greta, and Astrid is on my list for dc3. What are your boys names out of interest?

I have had Rosa, Tamsin and Iris on my lists before.
