From reading old threads it certainly seems to be love it or loathe it.

I'm really loving this name at the moment. For me I think it has a quirky yet timeless vibe. I think it would be so sweet on a little girl yet perfect for a woman.

I also love the unusual sound it has iykwim?

Do you think it goes well with Eli & Aphra?

TIA

I find it really difficult not to picture (and hear) Prunella Scales in Fawlty Towers- which is a shame because the name itself is beautiful and actually quite elegant.

It's a name that's grown on me recently & I love it. Quirky & timeless is a good description. I love Sybbie as a nn, as in Downton Abbey Smile

It goes very well with Eli & Aphra.
