Dh suggested this today for a girl and I think I quite like it.

I'm not quite sure how to spell it though - Perrie, Peri, Perry...?

I'm also unsure whether it should be short for anything - I think I met a Turkish Peri once whose full name was Perihan, but I'm not sure we could use that for a 100% Welsh kid!

I know a Perrie. I think it’s lovely. Hers is short for Perpetua.

Ooh, Perrine is pretty.

I'm not keen.

I know a couple of Perrines (am in France).

I can only think of Peregrine or Perdita as long forms.

I would go for Perrie or Perry.

Perrie looks like you've dropped the R from the end of the fizzy water brand

Perry is Kevin's friend and pear cider

Peri is the nicest

Perri maybe? Perry makes me think of the pear cider, and seems more masculine. Peri is like the prefix.

I know a male Perry so would say not that version.

DramaAlpaca · 10/08/2018 20:42

Not Peri as it makes me think of peri-menopause.

Harry Enfield

Kevin the teenager and his friend Perry came to mind.

Bobbybobbins · 10/08/2018 20:40

I would say not with a -y ending as this seems more masculine.
