we know a girl called Ophelia, and she shortens her name to 'Offy'

ophelia.its my dd2's middle name.

Tatiana is pretty, but unfortunately reminds me of a Russian fake-lesbian pop duo. Seraphina seems a bit try-hard. And Ophelia is a tragic basket-case. So although ALL the names are very pretty indeed, I just couldn't get past the associations.

Ophelia

Seraphina was on our shortlist for dd3 but she didnt feel like a girl with such a long name (so we named her Aoife)

I love Ophelia

less keen on Tatiana but still like it

Tillyscoutsmum · 01/04/2010 15:31

I love Separphina and Ophelia. Like the potential nicknames. Not so keen on Tatiana

I like Ophelia but think of the teenage years - boys making jokes about "Ophelia tits" etc etc.

The other names are also very pretty, prefer Seraphina slightly.

I like Seraphina - never heard of anyone called it though.

Like Ophelia too (my cousin has just pinched it for her daughter!)

Indith · 01/04/2010 15:27

All lovely! I think I prefer Seraphina just because of Ophelia being a fruit loop and quite a tragic character and Tatiana because it is so Russian and I have met a few "intersting" Tatianas so that is just a personal thing that influences how I see it.

Ophelia... LOVE IT!

Unfortunately it doesn't go with my surname otherwise it would be top of my list!
