I’ve recently met a little girl with this name and have completely fallen in love with it. Having been obsessed with baby names for ages I’m always surprised when I come across a name I’ve not even heard of before. I love it’s simplicity. It’s lack of frills. Easy to spell and pronounce. But also the fact it’s familiar enough not to sound weird.

Now if only I could have a baby girl next.... 🤣

What do you all think ?

Really lovely name I think.

Reminds me of Willa-Jean in the Ramona books.

Misread it as willy (but then I'm very immature!)

Sounds like the Geordie version of Willow...

Honestly? It's how they pronounce Willow in Yorkshire!

Really nice. Good twist on the more common Willow. Would definitely use it myself.
