Verity or Chloe?

Hi, we cant' make up our minds for the name of our daughter due this summer. We quite like Chloe or Verity. Which one would you go for?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Love Verity. Chloe is much more popular and a little boring imo.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 23/04/2017 00:00

Chloe

BounceBounceSplishSplash · 23/04/2017 00:01

I much prefer Verity. I think it's a lovely name

Only1scoop · 23/04/2017 00:02

Verity by a mile

Donttakemeout · 23/04/2017 00:08

Definitely Verity. It's lovely

wooster16 · 23/04/2017 00:16

Verity!

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 23/04/2017 00:18

Chloe. I've never known a nice Verity.

BackforGood · 23/04/2017 00:23

Chloe.
Chloe isn't a particular favourite, but I really don't like Verity.

IHeartDodo · 23/04/2017 00:25

Verity is lovely, has a nice meaning (truth), it's on my "list"
Chloe is a bit common imo tbh...

Looks like Verity is a front runner! Thank you for your posts :)

I prefer Verity. But idk. I think theres too much very obvious meaning to it...

Sophronia · 23/04/2017 01:04

Verity

SumAndSubstance · 23/04/2017 03:34

I think Verity is a great name and the ones I know are feisty and cool!

MitzyLeFrouf · 23/04/2017 03:39

Verity is so prissy. Never met one who wasn't as dull as ditchwater.

SuperBeagle · 23/04/2017 03:42

Chloe. The greatest name ever, IMO.

Verity is ferrety.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 23/04/2017 09:36

Chloe.

Afreshstartplease · 23/04/2017 09:38

Verity

Rockaby · 23/04/2017 10:27

Verity !

Pemba · 24/04/2017 18:08

Chloe, it's beautiful! I know other people will say Verity, because Chloe has been very popular over the last 30 years or so, but it is just so lovely. Verity is fine, but seems a bit, I don't know, harsh and spiky sounding by contrast.

Puremince · 24/04/2017 18:15

Either. But I prefer Verity.

Chloe is definitely my favourite

AdaColeman · 25/04/2017 13:05

Verity is lovely, stylish and classy.

Not so keen on Chloe, it's a bit too hippyish for me.

Susiethetortoiseshellcat · 26/04/2017 07:52

Verity is gorgeous. There are a lot of Chloes amongst the secondary school pupils I teach so it seems a bit dated to me.

sexymuthafunker · 26/04/2017 07:54

Verity.
