Hi, I am still really undecided on this name. Thoughts please 😄

I love it, very Scandinavian

Lovely. Gaining in popularity, but hardly an Olivia/Grace/Ella risk...

I like it a lot, but it has been so popular in my area (East London) for the last 5 years that I would hesitate to use it.

I like it. Astrid Lindgren, and the how to train your dragon films come to mind.

I’m sorry I think it’s a bit mature, a stocky older woman’s name 🙊

Makes me think of Astrid Baarder Meinhoff one of the Red Army Faction of the Baarder Meinhoff gang in then1970s... but perhaps showing my age!!

Avoid with an E surname.
