Is Winnie Iris just TOO old woman?

[ceeceeanne]

And does it flow nicely enough because I've said it too many times to know now! Also like Winnie Emmeline but friends have scoffed

Meglet I love Winter but October/early November seems to early! Thanks for honest opinions all! Am toying still between Winnie Victoria and Winnie Iris and wether to use Winifred

Nellwyn nn Winnie??

winnie is very sweet but she'll be called pooh, will she thank you?

there's two i's in the middle, so they sort of run into each other

winnIEIris

it sounds a bit wierd to me. mind you I can talk. One of my dds has too many Gs

cuh!

I think Winnie Iris is a lovely name.
Winnie makes me think of the Wonder Years, too. The character was very sweet.

Iris is beautiful.

I love Winnie. I know of a girl who is called Winnie and I think it's beautiful, slightly unusual but very pretty. (But then I like traditional names - Elsie is my favourite)

But I think Winnie Iris is a bit too old lady in combination, sorry.

That's ok sheep, Winnie Victoria is new fave. Think the classic Victoria modernises the Winnie if you know what I mean

I agree Ceeceeanne

Vile. Sorry.

I like Guinnevere Iris though, you could call her Winnie as a nickname if you like it that much though

Nellwyn is far better than winnie alone she can decide on Nell or winnie.

I have to say I prefer both Iris and Emmeline

YES it is.

I wonder if people actually ask the old ladies if they like it-I don't know any who are happy with Winnie. It goes with Hilda, Mildred, Muriel, Ethel, Elsie-etc all dire.

Love it!

She is Winifred Victoria and I LOVE it! So happy with my choice! Thanks all x

Fern Britten's daughter is a Winnie. My granny was too. Nearly all names come back into fashion though - I would think more 'Winnie the Pooh' than 'old lady'.

makes me think of Winnie the Witch books

Congrats OP. Winnifred Victoria is gorgeous!

Thankyou! And we don't really mind Winnie the pooh or Winnie the witch connections!! Winnifred looks nice compared to Winifred actually!
