Meredith is the only name that dh and I both like so far.
I like the fact that it isn't too popular but am
surprised quite how far down it is on the ons list.
What are people's opinions please?

Love it, makes me think of Greys Anatomy though

I have a Meredith, nn Merry - love the name (obviously) and get lots of comments about Meredith being a pretty name.

It's an old Welch name, given to boys. Meaning Guardian of the sea. It's my husband's middle name and my son's middle name.

The American use for girls is more recent.

Greys Anatomy.
Can't get past that. They all called her mare as a nn

I think it's lovely

MikeUniformMike · 02/10/2017 20:27

I think it sounds a bit American.

I know a Meredith with the nn of Merry, I like it and she is a fab person.

I absolutely love it. So beautiful.

I'm not really a fan, but I can't pinpoint why.

I do however, really like Merryn.
