Christmassy name that's not too twee

[ScarlettButler]

Any suggestions? As a middle name in case DC does arrive at Christmas rather than new year. Are there any nice ones that anyone can think of?

Eve?

Eira (Welsh for snow pronounced hayra without the h if that makes sense? and with the r rolled
Robyn

What a gorgeous name Eira is. Have never heard it before.

There is Eirlys too hich is snowdrop

which

nookie do you pronounce eirlys ayrliss then?

mrsvwoolf I want to tell DH we will call DC Santa...and see if he believes me

Liking: stella, eira, seren, maria most so far!

Eira is pronounced A-rah (with a as in hay and the ending is usually short rather than soft). I have come across it pronounced Eye-rah (with a softer ending) too.

Eirlys is pretty much like Ayrliss

I like Emmanuel for a boy and Emmanuelle for a girl. I think that most kids will be unfamiliar with the film which is the usual objection to the latter! Manny is a sweet nn.

DS2 was an Xmas baby, he's named Rowan.

My nephew was Xmas day and is called Emmanuel, shortened to Manny or Manu. But I think most adults over the age of 35 are going to snigger at Emmanuelle.
I taught a girl called Eira once and she was half Swedish, so maybe it exists there, it's a lovely name.
Loads of good welsh names, makes me wish I was having another baby!
In Spain they have Belén (emphasise the len)which means Bethlehem.

PS In Spain there are a lot of Santis, short for Santiago or (rarely) Santiaga. They also have Trinidad (Trini).

Have we had Bianca yet? Not exactly twee!

PPS Sorry I also forgot Nieves (snow)

Christian, natch.

Stephen?

Holly isn't a twee name! One of my best friends (she was an Xmas eve baby) is called Holly. I love it.

Definately Holly.
