OK, I know it's 'unusual' to say the least but I absolutely love the name Jura for a girl. I'm 33 weeks pregnant and am trying to gather names. So far, I'm unisinpired but my dp and I love the name Jura (we love the island itself and the whisky Blush).

So what I'm asking is, if you met a baby Jura, would you think weird or nice?

I think it's rather nice. But I'd worry about people thinking "juror".

Jura would be a boys name surely?

I just think of Whisky. How about Iona? Kira is a fabulous malt though

Nice. If you're not in Scotland people are unlikely to refer to Paps!

I would think it’s nice.
