Tabitha, Juno or Bryony?

[BearGrower]

Help me decide! (I realise names not to everyone's taste but I love them all)

I like Bryony.

Also, I had a thread with Robyn as a possible and also didn't like the spelling and was convinced that the spelling Robin was fine so maybe consider that?

Looks at self...nope still not a cat....

I don't get the cat thing either SecretWitch - apparently the most popular cat names in the UK are actually Poppy, Molly, Daisy and Bella, but no one seems to have a problem with those! www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2014/sep/16/from-poppy-to-sherlock-the-uks-most-popular-pet-names-cats-dogs

Tabitha Twitchit has a lot to answer for...

Tabitha or Juno. Though my autocorrect keeps turning Tabitha into Habitat.

I hear Bryony as 'Brian-y', which conjures up someone in stonewashed denims and a Kevin Keegan perm...

My dog is called Juno. It's a dogs name. Unless you happen to be a Roman godess! Which your child prob won't be

It's amazing what a film can do to a name. The Briony (spelt differently) in Atonement was awful, but I still love that name - spelt your way.

I like Tabitha too, and certainly wouldn't let the cat association put you off.

Juno I don't like it all.

I do laugh as my mum adored Bewitched so I might have a sister named Samantha.....happily she was not enamored with Endora!

I love the name Juno, it was number two, after Fraya, on our list but then we had a boy..

apparently the most popular cat names in the UK are actually Poppy, Molly, Daisy and Bella, but no one seems to have a problem with those!

It's more that it's a traditional, long term used, well known, name for cats (Tib/Tab/Tabby - Tabitha) vaguely like Fido or Rex, or Lassie for dogs. Who knew there was a most popular pet name list I don't think it matters, though, and both Rex and Tabitha make good human names too (not Fido or Lassie, though)

Bryony is lovely and I haven't heard of a baby Bryony for years!

Bryony was on our shortlist- it's still a favourite of mine but unfortunately DH only "likes" it and doesn't really love it as much as I do. By far my favourite from your 3

I think there is a reason why you haven't heard of a baby bryony in years

Why, because it's seemingly out of fashion? That doesn't mean it's not a nice nice name.

I haven't heard of a baby Joanna, Claire or Jennifer recently - but that's also just because they're out of fashion. A generation ago, everyone thought those names were gorgeous - and called all their girl babies those names...

Juno reminds me of the teen pregnancy film, Bryony sounds a bit rough but Tabitha is lovely!

Not because it's out of fashion, because it's ugly (as lots of people on this thread have said). It's my name and to this day I'm embarrassed when I have to say it. It's just not nice, sorry. I'd take Joanna Jennifer and Claire over my name any day of the week!

I really dislike Bryony...I find Juno a bit try hard. Tabitha is definitely my favourite of the 3.

I love Tabitha and Juno in equal measure.

I can't make my mind up about Bryony. When I met a woman called Bryony a few years back I thought "what a pretty name" but I think I'm not keen on it when I see it written down, if that makes any kind of sense?!

Love Tabitha, wouldn't bother me about the cat connection. Classic and underused IMO.
Bryony feels to me like Brian with a 'y'. Not keen.
Dislike Juno, don't like the sound at all.
