Which do you prefer for a little girl? Big brother is Rupert.

Miranda but that's because I'm a Moana fan 🙈

Julybug · 20/06/2017 00:21

Marina Is lovely and goes better with Rupert I think

Ceebs85 · 20/06/2017 00:45

Marina definitely

Tippitoesandbuttonnose · 20/06/2017 00:59

Miranda is awful!

SuperBeagle · 20/06/2017 01:16

Miranda.

Don't like Marina at all.

GirlcalledJames · 20/06/2017 06:43

Miranda is much nicer and goes better with Rupert.

howthelightgetsin · 20/06/2017 06:46

Sounds a bit like the coil..?

Sophronia · 20/06/2017 06:47

Love Marina.

Marina

FurryDogMother · 20/06/2017 06:48

Marina as in Brighton Marina? Think I prefer Miranda!

Marina reminds me of the tart in last of the summer wine

Don't like Miranda

How about Martha ?

grufallosfriend · 20/06/2017 06:53

Not so keen on Miranda

Raines100 · 20/06/2017 07:08

Miranda is beautiful.

harderandharder2breathe · 20/06/2017 08:06

Marina

AutumnalLeaves38 · 20/06/2017 08:21

Marina. Gorgeous name.

FfionFlorist · 20/06/2017 09:09

Miranda is a fab name and goes well with Rupert.

GreatBigPolarBear · 20/06/2017 09:18

How about Miriam?

MercuryMadness · 20/06/2017 09:31

Marina makes me think of that funny little car from the 70s.

Miranda makes me think of that tall comedian.

I can't imagine naming my child either with those connotations but I accept I might be in a minority of 1!

Fridgedooropen · 20/06/2017 09:34

Miranda. Shakespearian. Lovely.

paddlingwhenishouldbeworking · 20/06/2017 09:38

Marina

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 20/06/2017 09:39

Miranda. Which, incidentally, means wonderful.

Orangebird69 · 20/06/2017 09:43

Oh please, not 😂

Not keen on Miranda either. Makes me think of Chummy.

CrownOfPrawns · 20/06/2017 10:19

I like both, but I prefer Marina.

Mrsknackered · 20/06/2017 10:35

Marina.
Miranda Heart is my Miranda association.

Scrumpernickel · 20/06/2017 10:35

Marina reminds me of the very witty and acerbic Marina Hyde.
