What do you think of the name Merryn for a girl?

This is one of the few names my dh and I can agree on. It's a Cornish name, but we live in Ireland. Do you think there would be any issues with pronunciation?

Our other names are Lois, Arwen/Arwyn, Ines, Roslyn (but it's unlikely we'll choose this and I prefer Rosalind anyway). Trying to persuade my fussy dh that Ramona is a lovely name.

We already have a Milo.

We don't know what we're having. No idea re boys' names at all.

The only Merryn i know is a man!
It does work for a girl too though.
I love it

I'm not planning on any more DCs, but in the event of an accident more like miracle then I plan to use it for a DD. It's a combination of my parents names, Meryl and Colin so it would be a way to honour them both.

Ooh Merryn and Ines are on my list too! In fact they're pretty much all that's on my girls' list. I do like Ramona, but it doesn't go with our surname. I've had Merryn on my list for years and am a big GoT fan, and I honestly never even made the connection - doesn't put me off though.
