Tilda reminds me of Tilda rice

Yolande- reminds me of women in their 50s

Robyn is nice

TatianaLarina · 26/12/2017 08:55

Much prefer Matilda to Tilda, really dislike Yolanda and Robyn. Dinah has a vintage ring, which could be cool, but I prefer Diana.

Robyn

buttercup54321 · 22/12/2017 22:35

Robyn. Then Matilda. Not the others.

Stay positive OP!

My middle name is Matilda and I love it, Tilda is lovely too.
Aside from that, Robyn is my second on your list. Quirky and cool.

Dinah. It makes me think of someone elegant.

daisypond · 20/12/2017 18:42

I'm not very keen on any of them, really. Tilda would be good if it was short for Matilda. Dinah is OK...but it does sound like diner. I'm not keen on Yolande, and I don't like Robyn at all.

Robyn

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 20/12/2017 18:16

Nancy Ramona and Dinah Yolande !

Postsynapticdensity · 20/12/2017 17:16

Tilda is lovely, but why not call her Matilda and then shorten it?, you could do Tilly too which is lovely.

XmasTreeOhXmasTree · 20/12/2017 16:51

Tilda- basmati rice.
Yolande- an old lady's name and not a particularly nice one.
Dinah- don't like this, but it's okay. Sounds like diner.
Robyn- love this!

Smoliver · 20/12/2017 13:51

Tilda or Robyn get my votes

strawberrypenguin · 20/12/2017 11:56

Tilda: cute
Dinah: I don’t like it
Robyn: nice
Yolande: Yolande is ok but I honestly love Yolanda.

Love Robyn.

Navegante · 20/12/2017 08:14

I love Robyn. I like Dinah but prefer Yolanda to Yolande. Not keen on Tilda.

ChocolateCrunch · 20/12/2017 07:12

Only 1 I like is Robyn, sorry

badg3r · 20/12/2017 00:37

Tilda but as a nn for Matilda
Robyn is nice
Other two - not a fan

SleepingStandingUp · 20/12/2017 00:32

Tilda - cute but I would go Matilda
Yolande - just don't like it
Dinah - diner, dinner
Robyn - really cute

DramaAlpaca · 20/12/2017 00:24

Hmm. Tilda makes me think of rice as it's a brand name, so I couldn't go with that except possibly as a nickname for Matilda.

I like Dinah a lot, it's vintage & unusual.

Yolande is OK, but I prefer Yolanda.

Robyn is nice enough, especially for a baby born at this time of year, but I can't get excited about it.

This naming lark is hard, but don't get despondent, you'll probably know her name instantly when you see her Flowers
