Girls names - what do you think of these?

[Beachballfamily]

Tess
Eden
Juno
Kristen

Trying to avoid names that are too popular, or that end in an 'ie' or 'er' sound. Common surname, so want a first name that is unusual but not laughable. Would welcome your thoughts!

Tess - ok, but I see it as a very informal nn
Eden - boys name
Juno - lovely
Kristen - like

Tess I like as a diminutive (of Tessa, Theresa, Elizabeth.?) but I think it needs a long version

Eden and Juno no

Kristen is pretty

Juno is lovely

I like them all except Kristen.
Love Juno

Eden is really popular here.
Juno just makes me think of the film.
Tess sounds like a cats name to me.

But if you love them you should go for what you like. We all have different opinions and I am just not keen on those names.

Love them all except Eden.

Like Eden and Juno, not so keen on the others

Like Tess, prefer Kirsten to Kristen, not keen in Juno, actively dislike Eden.

I like all of them although, as mentioned above, Tess is a nn. Theresa is lovely- why not go for that?

Tess - nice as a nn, but not a "proper" name. What about Tessa?
Eden - not keen - bit chavvy. I do know a baby girl Eden, but sounds like a boy's name to me too
Juno - nice - but a bit pretentious perhaps?
Kristen - do you mean Kirsten? I've never heard of Kristen. Will she for ever be saying "no, KRISTEN, not KIRSTEN"? I like Kirsten.

I like tess and Kirsten .

Tess - not keen, doesn't seem like a full name to me
Eden - don't like, a bit masculine sounding
Juno - don't like, just makes me think of the film every time I hear it!
Kristen - not keen either. Love Kirsten or Kirsty, and don't mind Krista or Kristina though.

Thanks everyone. I do mean Kristen, not Kirsten - a friend has a DD called Kristen and I've always liked it. No idea Eden was popular/chavvy. Would like to avoid names that end in an 'a' sound if possible, because of the surname - which rules out lots of nice ones.

What about Juliet? Would she end up being called Jules (which I hate)?

I love Juliet. People will come up with nicknames whatever name you pick. I would just stand firm and always refer to her as Juliet

Like Tess and Kristen.

Imo I would push for the Nn Etta if you wanted one. However I think Julie wild be the most common.

But wouldn't use Kristen if my friend had already used it, tbh - a bit unimaginative and cheeky imho.

Juliet is nice but could well become Jules, especially once she's at school.

I like Eden and think of it as a girls name. Tess is lovely, but I think it should be short for Teresa or Tessa.

Isn't the twilight actress called kristen? Also wouldn't use it if a friend already had, though. Unless it's someone you rarely see who wouldn't mind?

How about Edith instead of Eden? My mind is totally not made up on this- can't decide if Edith is beautiful or hideous! I love Edie as a nickname though.

Tess- bit tragic- Tess of the D'Urbervilles

Tess is lovely, Eden is a bit entitled and a bit chavvy IMO, sorry. Juno is great for a boy but not for a girl, Kristen is nice enough but I prefer Tess.

Kristen does sound like an American made up name. Like Krista and Krystal.

Tess is lovely but usually a nn.

Juliet is lovely.

The others not my taste but nice names.

"Eden is a bit entitled"

What does that even mean??

Entitled-a name-I've heard it all now.

I like Juno best & also prefer Kirsten to Kristen.

I vote for Tess. Timeless and suits all ages.

Eden is a bit...Katie Price-ish, sorry.
Juno is becoming popular with the yummy mummy brigade in my area.
Not keen on Kristen at all.

Eden is my favourite name ever

also like tess

dislike the rest
