A fan of names which start with S (coincidentally all end in A)

Seraphine/a
Sienna
Saskia

Which one is best? Smile (suggestions for these type of names welcome too Flowers)

Saskia is a lovely name. And so is Seraphina. Both are really lovely and fabulous.

But I honestly don't like Sienna. It's very popular and "trendy"...

Saphira, Serena, Samantha, Susanna, Sylvia, Sylvie, Symphony.

Saskia is a great name. Sassy for short.

Sienna is too American for me and seraphine sounds like a chemical. I love saskia though!

SuperBeagle · 25/04/2017 21:12

Seraphina is the nicest, followed by Sienna.

I don't like Saskia.

Sabine or Sabina?

DramaAlpaca · 25/04/2017 21:10

Seraphina is my favourite.

DearMrDilkington · 25/04/2017 21:01

Sienna is beautiful.

Pleasemrstweedie · 25/04/2017 20:58

Sienn is far too popular at the moment. Saskia is very 70s.

Seraphina is unusual, but classic.

You'll guess what I'd go for.

Sunshineandlaughter · 25/04/2017 20:05

Oh I like Sylvia ! good suggestion swearwolf

Swearwolf · 25/04/2017 19:52

I like seraphina best. I also give you - Sylvie. It means 'of the woods' and I think sounds ethereal and beautiful.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 25/04/2017 19:33

Sienna is lovely.

Mrsknackered · 25/04/2017 19:30

Saskia is lovely, I like Seraphina too.
Sienna is a bit blah

CPtart · 25/04/2017 16:37

Serena or Saskia.
Seraphina is a bit of a mouthful. Not keen.

Loyly · 25/04/2017 16:36

Seraphina

Bringmesunshite · 25/04/2017 16:30

Serena as a previous poster suggested. After the awesome tennis player.

hollyisalovelyname · 25/04/2017 16:19

Saskia
Saskia
Saskia

Sophronia · 25/04/2017 16:15

Susanna?

BellMcEnd · 25/04/2017 16:03

Seraphina.

Gorgeous name

Bellalala · 25/04/2017 15:55

Unless you want to keep it unshortened!

Bellalala · 25/04/2017 15:54

I'm leaning towards Seraphina - what nicknames might it have except 'Sera/Sarah'? (Not a fan of Sarah)

AdaColeman · 25/04/2017 15:52

Saskia is my favourite by a long way.

HDAM · 25/04/2017 15:44

Seraphina.

Was at soft play this morning - 3 x Sienna there and it was v quiet!

I like Saskia - it's quite a 'hard' name, like Petra but I like it best

Sunshineandlaughter · 25/04/2017 15:18

And of course Sophia - yes it's popular but it's lovely and I've not actually met a baby one yet
