My cousin has asked me to put this name to the MN test. I told her to join herself but she's nervous! So what do you think?

It's not awful but it does feel a bit old-fashioned to me.

Freyanna · 16/06/2017 02:41

I like that name.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 16/06/2017 07:58

I love the name Alyssa, it's very pretty.
Lyssi for short.😀

It's a bit 80s American. It is quite pretty though.

According to my diary, this was the name I gave my imaginary friend in 1985 so Sophronia is probably right.

Love it

DramaAlpaca · 17/06/2017 00:08

It's pretty. The only one I know is an American teenager.

Sunnyside90 · 17/06/2017 04:14

Love it, very Cute and suits an adult to.
And it's not overly common. Lovely choice! Smile

I like it, very pretty, quite unusual yet uncomplicated.

BendydickCuminsnatch · 17/06/2017 16:43

Very nice, didn't know it was apparently dated or American! I know one with sister Emilia.

Oleopry · 17/06/2017 18:48

Really love it!

BewareOfDragons · 17/06/2017 18:50

I think it's pretty. It's also fairly unusual these days, which is nice.

Ceebs85 · 19/06/2017 00:27

I love it and it's one of my choices (first time pregnant 32wks with a girl) but DP doesn't like it Sad

AuditAngel · 19/06/2017 00:33

I on,y know one, 10 year old

ButterfliesandMoths · 19/06/2017 00:36

Pretty name.

Quodlibet · 19/06/2017 00:45

There is of course Alyssa Edwards of Drag Race fame who is a bit ridiculous, but that alone probably shouldn't put you off.

Buntysoven · 19/06/2017 00:48

Thank you. She's going with it!
