Xanthe?

[allset]

DD2 due imminently and we are still v undecided on a name - any thoughts/connotations for Xanthe?

i have just joined mums net and saw this chat. Did you all call your daughters Xanthe out of interest? my little girl is called Xanthe and i love the name. although its very funny people not pronouncing it correctly, and hard work at times but its peoples opinions at the end of the day!

Also i found out recently Dominic Burns daughter of Radio 1 is called Xanthe so there is more about than i originally thought when i picked the name a year ago!

xanthe is lovely

I think you can't call her myla anymore thanks to the slutty underwear

Similar name with greek overtones is Marina which is pretty. Or Mariella.

if you and your dh love it, use it. unless she comes out with a mass of very dark hair! (means golden or blonde)

oh sorry didn't notice this was very old

as you were

someone i know has called their twins xanthe and xavier. nice separately, but together???

i have a Xanthe -4 weeks old.

Have just refound this, we didn't go for Xanthe in the end. I still love it but we knew DD would be dark, and DH was only keen on the name in passing. I do think it is very pretty though and am yet to meet one in RL.

no 1 childminder - I used to want twins called Xavier and Xanthe (but, in my defence I was about 10!)

I love both names though.
