Heidi, Autumn or Phoebe? Opinions please

[dottytablecloth]

Just found out we are having a little girl!

I love the names Phoebe, Heidi and Autumn- to be honest we had pretty much decided on Phoebe but I just want to be sure.

Please rate the other names on my list and open to suggestions of anything else I might like!

I think Phoebe is the nicest and most versatile. I saw someone on here post re calling her dd Phoebe June which I thought was a gorgeous name.

They are all nice.

My personal ranking is
Heidi
Phoebe
Autumn

How about
Petra
Imogen
Claudia

Phoebe is fab. Heidi also nice. Don't like autumn x

I think Phoebe is the nicest. If she isan autum baby, how about Phoebe Autumn?

DD1 (Esme) was almost a Phoebe. Lovely name

I don't like autumn for a first name but I think Phoebe Autumn sounds nice.

Heidi not keen, reminds me of. Kerry Katona and goats.

Luna I was gonna suggest that too :) I am guessing she won't be though?

Not that it matters. Phoebe Autumn still nice.

Most people are liking phoebe!

I work with someone who has a phoebe, do you think that matters?

It seems to be getting more and more popular.

I personally like Autumn best, provided your daughter is born in autumn. I think that some people find Phoebe hard to spell. And it does seem pretty popular.

Phoebe is the loveliest. None of your names are awful though, all sweet. :)

I think Phoebe has been consistently popular for a long time, in that I know a few of varying ages but it's not so popular that it's everywhere and there are 5 in each class. I just looked at the 2012 name stats, it's no. 28 and has been hovering around there for the past 5 years. It has got more popular over the last decade but I don't think it's going to suddenly shoot up.

I LOVE Phoebe, it's one of my favourites. How close are you to the work colleague?

How about Hebe

Is Hebe a name?

I like Autumn the most! It's very sweet and so special! Love Summer as well;-)

Behind the Name: Meaning, Origin and History of the Name Hebe. Derived from Greek '??? (hebe) meaning "youth". In Greek mythology she was the daughter of Zeus and Hera. She was a goddess of youth who acted as the cupbearer to the gods.

Phoebe is by far the nicest!

Hebe is a girls name (like the plant) but isn't as nice as Phoebe. Phoebe Autumn is lovely!

Ok thanks skiing I've never heard of it before!

I just find season names pretentious whilst being a bit dippy (sorry, no offence meant and I know that Princess Anne's DIL is called Autumn)

Heidi for me is one of those...either the story book or Kerry Katona's daughter, so neither have great connection in my own eyes. I knew one Heidi but she was an addict, so that isn't a great association for me either
Am sure there are lots of lovely people called the name though. Again, sorry, it's just my personal experience.

I like Phoebe and I know a lady called this too, she's an extremely nice and kind woman.
I also think the name works for a little girl just as well as a grown person.

Heidi
Autumn
Phoebe

one of my cats is a Hebe. We have a lot in our garden.

I have a Heidi and only on mn does anyone mention key katona. In rl I don't think my friends know the names of her children. Anyway, dh and I loved both phoebe and Heidi but working in a school I found phoebe becoming increasingly popular so we went with Heidi. Plus we met a 4yo Heidi who was hilarious and cute.
Not keen on season names personally but do know an autumn who is very sweet.

Kerry not key

It's a nice name, they were just my random musings!

Heidi
Phoebe
Autumn

I like phoebe!

Good luck!
