Not keen on Kerry. Very 60s.

I love Merryn too. I don't think it is too like Karen, and I love Cerys, but there are quite a few about nowadays

I like Kerryn but it’s a totally different name sound wise to Cerys and has a different meaning.

Certainly not in my accent

Sorry, way too similar to Karen in today's world.

I knew a Kerrin and she and her name were both lovely.

Never heard it before, but I really like it! As someone has said, it has a similar feel to Cerys, which I really like, and also Merryn, which I love - sadly DP has vetoed both!

Lovely name.

Don't like it. Kerry and Cerys are lovely and very similar.

FlorenceNightshade · 17/08/2021 20:45

Isn’t she part of bananarama? Lovely name very unusual

Marlena1 · 17/08/2021 20:44

I love this.

FakeTanandProsecco · 17/08/2021 20:44

I like it! It's got a similar feeling to Cerys which I also really like.

I knew a Keren at university who was lovely, however she spent a lot of time correcting her name.

I think Keryn/Kerryn is a beautiful name. I only know one, she is about 8 & Cornish.
