Astrid Giselle.

Not one I'd choose, but I do like it.

Astrid Eliza will give Astrid E. Surname which with some surnames will raise some sniggers.

LilyAraminta · 18/10/2019 06:21

I love the suggestion of Astrid Eliza above! Strong and musical in a non-twee way.

Definitely a nice change from the frilly names.

Funny how names are described as princessy. When you look at what real princesses are called, they're not the so called princessy names.

VanillaSmile · 17/10/2019 15:10

Very pretty. It was on my list, but unfortunately husband vetoed it.

midsomermurderess · 17/10/2019 15:06

I really like it too. It makes a change from the frilly names that are so very popular right now.

Sparklypurpleunicornsaremyfav · 17/10/2019 14:58

One of my daughters has a friend called astrid, shes great, strong, independent and her name has never been shortened to ass!!! 😂😂

MikeUniformMike · 17/10/2019 14:57

It's nice. Will be more a lot more popular than you think.
If she's one of two in her peer group, your surname had better not start with E.

WhoArtinHeaven · 17/10/2019 14:48

This is my daughter's name. So obviously I love it!

Whattodoabout · 17/10/2019 10:33

Love it

CharitySchmarity · 17/10/2019 09:42

Very pretty, unusual but easy to spell and pronounce. I've only known two, one German and one Austrian. But I don't think it's too out there to use in the UK (assuming that's where you are!)

Astronica · 17/10/2019 00:40

It's a name that has grown on me. I like it's strength and sassiness.

64sNewName · 16/10/2019 23:50

Like it a lot.

PandasMum · 16/10/2019 23:49

I don’t love or hate it

CuteOrangeElephant · 16/10/2019 23:19

My 20 year old sister is called Astrid and she's fab.

Naomimi · 16/10/2019 23:18
