Any opinions on Benjamina? Considering adding it to our list.

I think Benji is a sweet nickname for a girl.

There was a bake off contestant (winner?) a few years ago called Benjamina. I thought is suited her.

Don’t be so ridiculous. It is hideous, in the same way Nigella is.

I’m not keen. I think I’d just assume that you really wanted a boy and hadn’t got over the fact that you had a girl instead.

That’s what I call my nephew when I’m taking the piss (he’s 15!). I’m not keen on it as a proper name, sorry.

Benji is a sweet nickname but not keen on Benjamina at all.... I know it is a real name, but sounds made up.
