I like Lyra very much, but not the other two.

I'd go for Frieda. Frida looks a bit odd to me, like Friday missing a letter. I like it.

I'm not sure he likes Frida much either but i'm hoping it'll grow on him as it's my fave out of the three

Frida! Then Petra, then Lyra.

How about Leda, Greta or Gaia?

Lyra Lyra pants on fire (sounds like liar)

I don't like Lyra as much as Frida or Petra. It's seems much trendier.

MrsMoastyToasty · 08/01/2019 19:23

Frida reminds me of Anni-Frid from Abba and Petra reminds me of the dog on Blue Peter in the 1970"s. but I'm old

My husbands Ex is called Petra and she is an absolute nightmare, so I despise the name. Grin

Frida is very pretty and very unusual.

toastofthetown · 08/01/2019 19:03

Both are gorgeous names. I prefer Petra with Faye, to avoid matching initials.

Littlechocola · 08/01/2019 19:01

Frida is beautiful.
Both beautiful but Frida is my favourite.

confusedandemployed · 08/01/2019 19:00

I like them both. I only know 1 Frida and no Petras.

ReaganSomerset · 08/01/2019 18:59

Petrafying name selection. (Geddit?)

Out of the two... Frida?

I LOVE Petra ❤️ partly because I'm desparate to visit there!

I don't think I'd like Freida if it wasn't for Freida Kahlo... Definitely prefer Petra
