I've always had a soft spot for this name, and amazingly it is now on DP's and my agreed shortlist - although it's not his favourite.
Is it just too...nippy? I think it's got a great sound to it, and good shortenings. (I never thought choosing names would be this hard.)
For interest, other names on list:
Freya
Lilias
Theadora
Ada

I stupidly mentioned it to someone at work a couple of months ago now, and they laughed... Which sticks in the mind

Love it, was gutted when my partner vetoed it!

Really really like Juniper. Unfortunately too close to my own name for us to use.

I actually really like it. It's a bit different while still being recognisable. June/Junie/Juno are nice nicknames, too.

I also like Lilias and Ada. Freya is nice too but very popular. Like Thea, but not keen on Theodora.

(Sorry I've just started 2 threads by the way! For some reason I specifically wanted to compare Ada and Thea..)
