I only like India and Ivy.

Prettylittlelady · 06/08/2019 07:54

Enya - not my taste at all

Everly- so this is a name I really liked for a while I think it’s got a lovely sound and then someone said ‘so it’s Beverly without the b’ and now I feel put off for life. But originally I thought it a lovely alternative to Evelyn et al.

Nancy - ok bit dated

Coco- very cute, I like it wish I was brave enough
saskia - feels dated

Yasmin - quite pretty, prefer this to jasmine

Rosalie - not too keen

India - lovely & really like indie as a nn

Ivy - beautiful, love it

Sadie - not keen

Vanillelle · 06/08/2019 07:37

Enya - pretty sound but just too heavily associated with the singer for me

Everly - I quite like this

Nancy - love this name, would've had it on my shortlist but my husband isn't keen!

Coco - bit cutesy

Saskia - never loved the sound of this

Yasmin - meh. Not for me.

Rosalie - very pretty

India - bit pretentious imo

Ivy - pretty, but about half of the baby girls I've known born in the last 4 years have been Ivys. That might not bother you tho!

Sadie - it's ok but I think it's a bit dated.

Astronica · 06/08/2019 04:09
