Opinion's on Heidi ?

[Route666]

Heidi yah or nay ?

Lovely and, as yet, underused.

I love it. Our surname starts with a h and sort of rhymes with Heidi so it's a no for us but I love it!

It doesn't do it for me, but it's a perfectly good choice.

Very nice and I am extremely opinionated on names.

Really like it.

It's not my favourite, I'm not keen on the Swiss boarding school image thing. Sorry

No a bit too Germanic and strident for my taste. How about Heather as the English equivalent?

Thanks for replies glad there are positives the few people we have told have been less than keen on it,Heathers nice but is dh's cousins name thanks for the suggestion though we are finding it so difficult to find "the" name.

Austrian girl running around the alps and making friends with goat herders

I think i must be only person that hasn't seen that movie think I need to watch it.

Kerry Katona. Sorry.

I'm sorry but if Kerry Katona uses a name, it's automatically not for me. Sorry.

Is Kerry Katona's daughter called Heidi ?? how did I not know this :(

My DD2 is Heidi so it's a yes from me

I like it. Also know a couple of Haidis - more unusual maybe and without the yodelling connotations

Thread title made me think you were asking for opinions on the book which I must say was one of my favourites as a child. My DD also loved it when she was younger.

As a name, it is lovely but I always thnk It suits blondes best.

VeniceQueen good choice its lovely name. I like Haidi to. Ahh so there is a book I will defiantly have to read that, I agree it would suit blond best we have a back up name if she is dark haired ,DD is very blond but DH is very dark I am somewhere in between so could go either way. DD would have suited Heidi perfectly.

My 2 yr old Heidi is gorgeous! Everyone says what a lovely name. She is mousey brown - getting blonder but I still think it would be a lovely name if darker.

Do it!

TallRedhead It is by far my favorite name I think we will use it no matter what she looks like, Dd had red hair till she was 7 ish months old then went blond so no guarantees anyway. Now to find a middle name

It's a brilliant name, strong yet pretty. Go for it.

I love it, it's pretty, not over used, and the Heidi I know is clever, famous and lovely!

I like it a lot, very pretty.

I don't like it at all, sorry.

I love it! DD has it as second name because hubby wasn't as keen but I was determined to have it somehow! I only know 1 Heidi and she is in her 30s and lovely.

It's a bit 1970s, in a big boobed Swiss au pair with blonde plaits, kind of way.

Also, Heidi Fleiss.
