Nina ! Lovely name , you're welcome Grin

Nina, beautiful name

Smartleatherbag · 30/10/2016 19:08

I'd choose Iris, because I know a lovely Iris. Both terrific names though. Sid is fab too.

Lucked · 30/10/2016 19:09

Nina. I wanted this for dd

PiSeas · 30/10/2016 19:09

Binary is lovely

NotSoHankyPanky · 30/10/2016 19:09

Nina

Ninjapie · 30/10/2016 19:10

Nina

JosephineMaynard · 30/10/2016 19:10

I prefer Nina to Iris.

DramaAlpaca · 30/10/2016 19:11

I think Iris goes better with Sidney as they both have a vintage feel.

Nina is lovely though.

PipersPiping · 30/10/2016 19:11

Iris, i wanted it for dd 2 but it was vetoed.

Iris, but Nina is great too.

Love Sidney, so nice to see it used for a boy (I hate it for a girl)

PiSeas · 30/10/2016 19:13

Nope.
Not Binary. Stupid jeffing auto correct Confused

Nina is lovely. Please don't call your DD binary

Grin
ForeverEyesOfBlue · 30/10/2016 19:16

I love them both, but Iris would be the one I'd pick. I agree it goes well with Sidney.

Honeybee79 · 30/10/2016 19:19

PiSeas - no risk of a baby Binary! Grin.

I love both of them, but would go for Iris in your situation because "Sidney and Nina" has too many "nee" sounds, and sounds a bit like an ambulance siren.

AmberEars · 30/10/2016 19:20

I prefer Iris. I quite like binary too!

Floggingmolly · 30/10/2016 19:21

Iris.

Honeybee79 · 30/10/2016 19:21

I see your point Jasper though I guess they won't be a "unit" for long!

Iris. At first glance Nina hope looks like ' not a hope'

Pluto30 · 30/10/2016 19:34

Nina.

Iris always just makes me think of eyes.

Madbengalmum · 30/10/2016 19:35

Iris for me.

icantgetnosleep5 · 30/10/2016 19:37

iris
Nina is cute for a little girl, but i think Iris suits all ages better.

HardcoreLadyType · 30/10/2016 19:38

Nina, definitely.

CharminglyGawky · 30/10/2016 19:42

Iris, lovely name.
