Hermione, Freya, Bonnie

[MiniAlphaBravo]

We are having our 2nd girl (dd name is Florence). In the title are a few of our current favourites. Our list is probably

Hermione
Freya
Bonnie

I just don't know if any of them are right. I usually like quite classic and strong names. Which do you prefer and do you have any suggestions? DH vetoes quite a few that I like Thank you

Agatha
Alice
Beatrice
Eloise
Esme
Juliet
Nancy
Phoebe

I have a Freya, I didn't realise it was so popular until now. Maybe it's more popular in England than in NI We picked it because of its meaning.
I like Bonnie, but not sure if it goes well with Florence.
Picking names is difficult!

I love the name Freya, but I think it's a bit twee as Florence's sister and whilst it was an unusual name 10 years ago I wouldn't use it now as it's becoming too popular for me.

I love Hermione.

Bonnie is another good name, but it does make me think of dogs.

Good luck and enjoy your girls!

Fenella nn Nell?

From your list, Hermione would go best with Florence. Shame about the HP connection.

As alternatives I'd suggest Clementine or Jessamine.

Stella
Alice
Rose
Elise
Marion

Hermione is lovely. Dislike Bonnie.

Bonnie short for Beatrice

Love Hermione and it goes so well with Florence. Bonnie is okay, Freya is my least favourite and it's so overused.

Frances?

Freya is boring.

Hermione I like.

Bonnie I love!

Beatrice is lovely, nn Bea

If hubby was ok with it I would have gone with Hermione or Freya even. Both were on my list. Lovely names.

I love Freya but not with florence....

Agree Hermione goes well. I know 2 florences, one has a sister called Constance (Connie) and the other has a sister called Thea.

We are having a little girl too, and if my husband allowed it I would definitely choose Hermione, and that is BECAUSE of the HP link. Massive fan. But unfortunately he can't get away with it so he has said nope. I love Luna too, but being a Harry Potter fan I fear she would get called Loony so can't bring myself to call her that either.

Noodle my husband wanted to name our daughter Luna but I just couldn't do it, it's such a lovely name but I was worried it was too unique. I wish I'd put it as her middle name now, cause I know we won't have anymore DC

Thanks everyone for all the feedback. Very helpful. Liking the idea of Beatrice nn Bonnie as I do quite like more 'serious' sounding names I suppose, with nice nicknames. Like Bea too. Also like Constance.

Can anyone think of any nicknames for Hermione? I was thinking possibly Mimi but maybe it's a bit obscure...

Mimi works really well for Hermione.

I think Mimi works for Hermione.

I knew an adult Hermione, would be mid 40's now. As far as I know she was always just Hermione.

I'm a big Hermione fan, it's my daughters middle name. Husband wasn't into having it as her first name but I got it in there

Freya
Hermione - Harry Potter
Bonnie- Bonnie Langford
