Love it but (Scotland) in a class I teach that includes 11 girls there are 3 Erins.

Only if you pronounce it as it should be. Think AIRin; not Err... in.

@DanceDisaster Rachel is our eldest name , so pleased it's coming back as I love it. She's nearly 14 and no other girls called Rachel as we know of. Same as Erin which is our youngest.

This is our daughters name.... next choice was Darcy ❤️️

I don't like it, and and it's a brand of soup in Ireland.

TatianaLarina · 19/04/2018 14:51

It’s ok there are many other Irish names I prefer.

Yay

DanceDisaster · 19/04/2018 13:24

Erin Rachel is really nice. I also like Rachel as a first name.

Ellasshitholekitchenpjpiigp · 19/04/2018 13:24

Great to hear all these comments. Also thinking of using Erin, I’m expecting dc3 ( all girls) what do you think of Rachel as a middle name?
