Ok we're just ttc #2 and I'm already thinking of potential names.....have lots of boys name (and a DS) but struggle with girls names. I'm Scottish and love Mirren (which is a very Scottish name). DH says it's quite hard sounding.....thoughts?

As in Helen?
Actually, I like it. I'm not Scottish so haven't heard of it as first name, but it does sound like a girl's name. It doesn't sound harsh at all in my accent, but perhaps it would in a rhotic Scots accent.

Mirren was our second choice for a girl. Went with Lily as it's in the family but next time if it's a girl Mirren is definitely on the cards! Gorgeous name
