It's not actually a name but I think it should be. It's very pretty. NN Glacie

What are your thoughts?

No.

Glaucia is a real Portuguese name.
Glacia pronounced Glacier just seems... odd to me. Unless it has some cultural history that I don't know about.

adhdforme · 31/08/2022 13:48

Just don't 🙄

Mumsnut · 31/08/2022 13:46

Cold and slippery … just the image every child wants to project

MmeMeursault · 31/08/2022 13:42

Yep and siblings could be called Volcano and Rockface and maybe there could be an Oxbow Lake

Go for it.

It’s a bit “self-published ice-wizard fantasy novel” I’m afraid

LondonQueen · 31/08/2022 13:40

Sounds like Aldi's next ice cream brand.

MrsMitford3 · 31/08/2022 13:31

I can't tell if this is real or a piss take.

If it is real it is not a nice name.

Galia is close and very pretty.

Foxes Glacier Mint - or minty for short?

AssignedSlytherinAtBirth · 31/08/2022 13:28

It's a nice word but dch should be given an actual name. You are putting a huge millstone round her neck if you give a kid a yooneek name.

sounds like an overpriced (probably vegan) icecream

Mommabear20 · 31/08/2022 13:24

Lovely name for a husky!

Choconut · 31/08/2022 13:22

Get a white cat or dog and use it on them, they won't mind and at least the name will have some meaning - no need for a chav spelling of Glacier though. Mellifluous is also a lovely sounding word and has a nice meaning, doesn't mean you should call your child it though.

YellowRoad · 31/08/2022 13:16

Glacier.
No, it's not good.

WishDragon · 31/08/2022 13:11

No child is going to thank you for calling them Glacia. Ever.

RaRaRaspoutine · 31/08/2022 11:50

If you like snow and mountains, Aspen?

RaRaRaspoutine · 31/08/2022 11:49

Sounds like a brand of mint.

yoshiblue · 31/08/2022 11:47

Sounds like the Pokemon Glacion

No sorry!

Tibtab · 31/08/2022 11:46

I would pronounce it Gla- chia

noclothesinbed · 31/08/2022 11:46

It's not a name for a reason. Give your kid a real name for goodness sake she had to go through her whole life with it. It's not a joke for you take up a stupid name and say oh I like the cold it's ridiculous

user1477391263 · 31/08/2022 11:45

Please no. There are plenty of nice "nature" names you could use instead.

Winter
Willow
Summer
Sorrel
Laurel
Fern
Savannah
Rowan

Fun name for a pet. Don’t inflict it on a human being.

WhatNoRaisins · 31/08/2022 11:34

I'd at least spell it Glacier so it at least is spelt how most people will see it.

Fitzfatsfeist · 31/08/2022 11:31

Pretty sound but makes me think massive and slow moving.. Not a good connotation for a persons name!

georgarina · 31/08/2022 11:30

It can see why it’s pretty but to be brutally honest it sounds like a teen mum name to me, or like something out of Twilight.
