thank you Blue they are probably a little 'prettier' than i would go for, does that make sense? I should also say that I would prefer a two syllable name if possible!

Sorry - should have asked - do you actually want the letter "a" or an "a" sound?

sophy sounds like we have very similar taste. Nina and Greta go so well together, lovely. our boys name is Leon. We also considered Erik and Oskar. What boys names do you like?

Not ending in a but the Astrid I know has a sister Iris.

We considered Astrid and also had Vivienne and Marielle on our list.

I'm not doing very well on the a ending though!!
