Harriet or Marian?

I want a strong, classical but also feminine name for baby DD. I both these but Harriet is more nickname-able.

But we are thinking of Artemis as a middle name and I think Marian Artemis flows better than Harriet Artemis......

Thoughts?

I vote Artemis! :) failing that, Harriet and Marian are both nice. Could be Hattie or Mary for short. Slight preference for Harriet

Aw Hattie and Fred sound lovely together! 😊

Oh, great choices!

Marian is more unusual, harriet is more popular, if that helps at all.

Harriet is my all time favourite girls name

Defo Harriet

Marian Artemis flows better, but Marian is such a dated, clunky name. I think Harriet is much nice, and nn Harry/Harri which is awesome.

Harriet is a fantastic name

Oh love your choices!
