Still having trouble deciding

Hi,

DH and I have been to and fro a million times over the last few months on a name for our little girl - due in May. I would like opinions, they may or may not swing with DH but our shortlist is:-

Ciara Janet
Emilia Janet
Erin Janet
Seren Janet

I put them alphabetically as I don't want to influence on my preference. Middle name non-negotiable as it is a family name.

Thanks in advance HMS

Clara Janet

NickNacks · 21/02/2012 21:51

My order would be

Seren
Erin
Emilia
Ciara

All very nice names though!

I would put them in the following order of preference:

Clara Janet - love love this
Seren Janet
Erin Janet
Emilia Janet (think Emilia/Amelia is really over-used at the moment and although it is pretty, I have gone off it as I hear it so often)

Janet is a lovely choice for a middle name, by the way

I love Seren. Not keen on the others. Erin is the worst but I'm biased as I went to school with one and she was school bully.

FunnysInTheGarden · 21/02/2012 22:21

I think it's Ciara and not Clara. I like all of them except Ciara I think Grin Prefer Clara actually

StealthNinja · 22/02/2012 03:47

Order of preference:

Erin Janet
Seren Janet
Emilia Janet.

Also love Clara Grin, but not so keen on Ciara.

Pumpkinsandpickles · 22/02/2012 06:51

Emilia Janet
Ciara Janet
Seren Janet
Erin Janet

Pumpkinsandpickles · 22/02/2012 06:52

Also think Clara Janet sounds nice!

birdofthenorth · 22/02/2012 09:04

Clara or Erin

Dawnyann · 22/02/2012 10:47

Ciara is a lovely name!! x

Littlecherublegs · 22/02/2012 10:52

Order of preference would be:

Seren
Erin
Emilia (though prefer Amelia)
Ciara

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 22/02/2012 10:54

Order of preference:

Emilia Janet (my favourite by a mile ? beautiful)
Ciara Janet
Erin Janet
Seren Janet (I'm afraid I haven't heard of this and I'm not sure about it. How do you say it?)

insertwittyusernamehere · 22/02/2012 11:47

Alphabetical order is my order of preference Grin

Ciara is beautiful.

Peekabooooo · 22/02/2012 11:52

My preference order would be:
Erin
Serin
Emilia

Don't like Ciara, but really like Clara which I would put second.

smogwod · 22/02/2012 12:28

Erin is my favourite but depends on her surname - does it begin with any of E,C or S and how many syllables? With a shorter surname I'd probably go for Emilia

Stellan · 22/02/2012 12:34

LadyClariceCannockMonty - Seren is pronounced a bit like Erin with an S (i.e. not like the word 'serene' or the name Serena).

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 22/02/2012 12:36

Nice. I still like Emilia the best though.

woolly76 · 22/02/2012 15:29

Emilia then Seren
