Posted a few days back and narrowing choices.
So which would you choose?
Thank you.

Imogen is gorgeous and timeless. I also think sienna as faddy.

Imogen 💕

Imogen reminds me of Imagine.. I like both

RaindropDreams · 09/04/2019 22:41

I have an Imogen. DH. Hose her name and I really wasn't keen but it has grown on me and I now love it. We always get complimented on her name and how pretty it is

MollyYouInDangerGirl · 09/04/2019 22:35

I like both but I think I prefer sienna. Although if youd have asked me last week or next week I might be inclined to say imogen!

Iamthecaptainnow · 09/04/2019 22:34

Imogen.
It feels rather "market-less", actually! Hard to pinpoint. Whereas Sienna conjures a very clear, although undoubtedly unfair, mental image- at least for me!

GlitterPixie · 09/04/2019 22:13

Sienna. I just don’t like Imogen at all for some reason but Mumsnet loves it

Susanna30 · 09/04/2019 22:05

Sienna is a lovely name.

ilovecatsabittoomuch · 09/04/2019 22:02

Imogen is more classic Sienna is more fashionable but both are great names

LesLavandes · 09/04/2019 12:55

Siena, not Sienna. My daughter is 26 and named Siena after the city in Italy. At that stage, it was a very unusual name. In fact I knew none.

Siena is a beautiful name

MsTSwift · 09/04/2019 12:37

The rough girls with funny eyebrows who get excluded at dds school are usually named sienna. Make of that what you will

BlueMerchant · 09/04/2019 12:33

Imogen!

shumway · 09/04/2019 12:31

Imogen.

formerbabe · 09/04/2019 12:27

I don't think Imogen is down-market. It sounds ugly and frumpy to me, yes.

Sienna is prettier but is probably considered more down market by some people.

They are very different to each other.

Some people have said before that Imogen is down market or horrible and frumpy.
Personally I can't see this but am I missing something?!

hmm not really a fan of either but if I had to pick maybe Sienna. for some reason Imogen reminds me of a medicine?!

Calloway · 09/04/2019 11:04

Imogen

e22aed247a · 09/04/2019 10:53

Both are lovely. I personally prefer Imogen

BurrSir · 09/04/2019 08:46

I love both these names. But sienna is my favourite name ever.

user1483387154 · 09/04/2019 07:30

Imogen definitely

Applesbananaspears · 09/04/2019 07:29

I don’t like either but Imogen is 100 times better than Sienna which feels like a pageant name

ReginaPhalange89 · 09/04/2019 07:27

Imogen ! 100%

I find sienna very 'faddy' . I know a few all around the same age, don't think it dates well

MollyHuaCha · 09/04/2019 00:35

Imogen for me

MercyBodle · 09/04/2019 00:32

Easy one - Imogen.

MrsReader · 08/04/2019 22:59

Imogen 💕
