Fern and Merryn are lovely. Unusual without being unheard of. Arwen is too Lotr for me and I like lotr. Could have Anwen instead?

Cassia
Saskia
Tessa
Nina
Alma
Elowen
Lowenna
Tabitha
Pearl
Sasha
Sadie
Tansy
Briar
Hebe

Jasmine is lovely and I quite like Fern too. I’m not too keen on the others.

KirstenBlest · 05/07/2023 14:05

Hazel - ok
Lowri - lovely pronounced properly (not Lowry)
Lois - prefer the welsh pronunciation, but either is OK
Sabrina - ok
Arwen - only if a fan of Tolkien, frumpy if pronounced as if a Welsh name
Ariadne - too long
Rowan - nice but too popular as a boy's name
Rowenna - will be mixed up with Rowena
Merryn - don't like it
Jasmine - lovely
Fern - ok
