Ingrid or Astrid?

DH prefers Ingrid and I prefer Astrid. We're Scottish and have no Scandinavian connection (or Orcadian for that matter) other than a fondness for holidays there. What do you think?

Astrid is nicer in my opinion..I know a few Ingrids, but havent heard of an Astrid in ages.

Prefer astrid, she's blonde and beautiful... Ingrid is a mousey haired librarian. Sorry, I've been playing with that name thingy too long

Love both, marginally prefer Astrid.

Ingrid is nicer to my ears

But neither has any pet name potential
