Harriet or Hannah

Baby #3 is due in a few weeks and we're sorted for a boy's name. Our surname is one syllable.

DD1 has the same name as Prince George's sister and DD2 is the Roman goddess of flowers and spring.

If we have a third DD, which do you prefer: Harriet or Hannah?

I like Harriet I think it sounds posher I don't like Hannah at all tbh

I have a Harriet. Only ever been known as Hattie though which I love. It really suits her.

Some people need to RTFT!

Congratulations on baby Anna.

Would you consider Hattie? Or Heidi?

dillytilly · 19/05/2018 13:27

Both are gorgeous but I think Harriet with nickname Harryo is divine, I know a little Harriet, it’s a beautiful name x

I prefer Hannah but Harriet would fit better

Oh I didn’t see the update.

Congratulations OP. Anna is one of my all time favourite names.

Hannah is beautiful although I may or may not be extremely biased Grin

Hannah. Both nice.

Hellywelly10 · 16/05/2018 19:48

Love hanna (especially with one H). Harriet is very english in a bad way.

I thought I'd come back and update this thread as DD3 is now 4 weeks old!

In the end we went with neither Harriet nor Hannah and opted for daisypond's suggestion of Anna! Thanks for naming our daughter @daisypond Smile

Harriet has some lovely nicknames that Hannah doesn’t really.
