Heidi or Robyn?

[Heatherbell1978]

DD1 due in February and I think we've (eventually) agreed on 2 names. We love Heidi and Robyn. Cons for Heidi is it doesn't sound as great with our surname (but not a deal breaker) and with Robyn, I'm not a bit fan of y's replacing i's in names but Robin to me as a boys name so we would spell Robyn. Favourite?

I like Robin, but really dislike Robyn because I think it looks really odd and misspelled with the 'y'. I know that Robin is really a form of Robert, but it always makes me think of the bird, so I think it should be spelled that way.

Heidi is quite nice but I do very much think of it as a Swiss/German name and would probably expect a Heidi to have long blond plaits :)

Heidi

Love that

We have a little lady named Heidi & still adore her name.

Haven't met another.

It's beautiful.

I used to work with someone called Heidi Cokayne. Looks fine but say it out loud I didn't like her much so it has put me off the name.

I think Robyn is a really sweet name.

I have a Heidi and I love the name. Get lots of compliments.

Love them both. I would be odd and spell it Robin for a girl, I know it's more unusual but I think it looks nicer

Heidi.

Heidi Robin Surname. Sorted.

Gorgeous names. My DS has Robin as a middle name.

I love Robyn.

Heidi.

DDs middle name is Robyn, after my DGM who was Robina. I guess Robina is possibly the correct female form of Robin but I prefer Robyn. Heidi is a lovely name and I do know another one but it is fairly rare.

Heidi, every time.

Heidi. I am really not keen on Robyn.

Robyn

Definitely Heidi.

I like Robin for a boy a lot but for some reason I'm not at all keen on it for a girl, however you spell it.

Heidi Robyn works nicely though, unless you want to save whichever you don't use for a future daughter.

Heidi is better. Not keen on Robyn especially that spelling.

I have never considered Robyn but adding it to my list! Gorgeous name

Heidi by far.
I have a 1 year old called Heidi
