Meredith?

Does anyone like this name? I think the nickname Merry is cute for a child, with the full name sounding sufficiently professional.

Is it a little dated though?

I love Meredith and think it is the nicest on your list

I love Meredith. It's a great name. I also really like Aurelia, Bryoni and Morgan. X

Cute ! It reminded me of Brave when I read it , although then realised the princess is Merida not Meridith. Lol

I don't like it at all, sorry. It just feels like a surname to me or a boy's name - which I rather like. But not for a girl. Merryn?

I like it a lot. Reminds me of the singer Meredith Brooks

I really like it. It's my favourite of your list. I was put off by it being Welsh.

Meredith and Bryony are both on our list. Agree about Merry being so sweet and fun, and Meredith is happy sounding but grown up.

Therefore I assume we have similar taste - the rest of our list is:

Heidi
Alyssa
Adelaide
Gabriella
Merryn
Naomi
Rory/Aurora
Georgie
Lucy
Freya
Imogene
Zara

Although there are various styles of name there IMO!

Love it! Also love Evelyn.

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 10/08/2018 20:51

Absolutely love it.
Out of your other names, I love Evelyn (I have one Grin)

ZeNextYouAreOut · 10/08/2018 20:50

I really like Meredith. I think it's elegant.

LoveInTokyo · 10/08/2018 20:48

I like it. Also like Jasmine and Bryony a lot.

Snoopychildminder · 10/08/2018 20:47

I think I like the sound of it more than the look of the spelling...I’m not sure. I should like it as I do favour more traditional names but for some reason I’m not 100%.

From your list i really like Evelyn (that was on my list)
