Are you having a laugh?!

I vote for a normal name

AusBoundDD · 27/04/2025 01:01

Indigo!!

BottleBlondeMachiavelli · 27/04/2025 00:57

Brutally honest reactions:

Saskia - nice, unusual but known, elegant.
Artemis - beautiful, strong, classical
Lumie - awful, artificial, wake-up light brand.
Delphie - pretty, better as diminutive of Delphine.
Indigo - try hard and over used.

LilyJosephine · 27/04/2025 00:52

Saskia is relatively unusual in the UK but pretty and seems perfectly useable. Artemis is elegant and would also be fine dependant on your social circle/public school (as it’s not nearly as well used generally as similar Athena).

Lumie and Delphie are just odd and will likely be regularly misspelt or misheard so I wouldn’t pick those. Indigo is cool if she does grow up to be the arty/bohemian sort but I suspect she’ll dislike it if not.

DramaAlpaca · 27/04/2025 00:47

Saskia is fine.

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 27/04/2025 00:17

Artemis and Saskia are great - I’d just pick whatever goes best with your surname

Indigo is a bit naff, and indie is a v naff nickname. But it’s not terrible

Lumie sounds like a brand of SAD lamp, and is terrible.

Delphie is just v naff.

Pemba · 26/04/2025 23:31

Only USEABLE one I meant, not usual!

Pemba · 26/04/2025 23:30

Saskia is the only usual one imo, it's nice.

Delphie is cutesie, Delphine is OK. Lumie is cutesy and odd. Indigo is odd.

Artemis is passable, but quite pretentious.

BeatrizBoniface · 26/04/2025 23:27

Saskia or Delphine.
Not Indigo, it'll really date, and please not Lumie..

CalliopePlantain · 26/04/2025 23:27

saskia.

If Delphie was Daphne I’d choose that

BeatrizBoniface · 26/04/2025 23:27

17caterpillars1mouse · 26/04/2025 22:43

Saskatoon or Delphie

Not Saskatoon, that's a bit out there.

EmiliaRuusuvuori · 26/04/2025 23:24

Definitely Saskia

RebeccaNoodles · 26/04/2025 23:22

100% Saskia

nyancatdays · 26/04/2025 22:48

Delphie or Indigo

NN - Indie

ChocolateCinderToffee · 26/04/2025 22:29

StarTwirl · 26/04/2025 21:00

It’s your baby not ours

you choose

What's the point of this board then ? If you don't want to help just don't post...

OP I like Artemis and Indigo best.

MrsTerryPratchett · 26/04/2025 22:13

Nevertrustacop · 26/04/2025 21:17

Saskia, but Delphine would be better.

Exactly this. Let Delphie be the NN if you want.

abracadabra1980 · 26/04/2025 22:11

Absolutely none.

Sassybooklover · 26/04/2025 21:55

I quite like Saskia.

ArtTheClownIsNotAMime · 26/04/2025 21:52

All equally bad

Moreteaandchocolate · 26/04/2025 21:49
