Hi there

We are both in love with the name Heidi. Just wondering what people's opinions are on it? Trying to think long term for our daughter!

I have a Heidi. I love it. She is called heid by her friends sometimes but it is rarely shortened. She likes it x

I really dislike this name. To me it's twee and babyish and I don't think it works on an adult. Sorry.

But if you both love it, that's your name sorted, don't listen to me!

It's a great choice

Lovely, Hi-de-hi and Hides, but still very pretty.

Absolutely lovely. Cute but also totally works for an adult. Lovely choice.

Ah it's cute and a little different. Think it also works for an adult. Go for it

Love it

I absolutely love it. My cousin is called Heidi, she’s now in her 40’s and it has always suited her. We call her Hid mostly x

I think it’s lovely! I would have chosen it if dh had been on board.

I have a mum friend called Heidi and think it works for all ages - go for it!!
