Alice.. it’s classic and beautiful

Lisette40 · 05/12/2017 22:55

Alice. But I'm biased because my wonderful grandmother was called Alice.

theconstantinoplegardener · 05/12/2017 22:57

Alice. Luna puts me in mind of lunatic. Also it seems more of a pet's name IMHO.

BrizzleDrizzle · 05/12/2017 22:57

Luna

Mrsknackered · 05/12/2017 22:58

Alice

Howsthings1234 · 05/12/2017 23:04

Both lovely... if it were me I'd go Alice of the two.

PandaCat · 05/12/2017 23:56

I like both. I'd go with Luna purely because it's less popular than Alice. Alice is my favourite, biased though as I have one. Smile

Alice Smile

Alice

SmellySphinx · 06/12/2017 00:04

Both! But something inbetween perhaps...Alice Lily Luna? Alice Grace Luna or Luna Grace!! I don't know but I love both of those names

ilovepixie · 06/12/2017 00:08

Ooh Luna Grace is nice

Alice

Alice.

I can’t hear Luna without mentally adding ‘...tic’.

AnyaMoondial · 06/12/2017 03:59

Alice is very popular now. Luna is beautiful and has a lovely vibe I think.

Alice

SamiJayne · 06/12/2017 05:37

Alice, but I'm biased - I've just named my 3 week old daughter Alice and it was my lovely Nans name too Smile

ChocolateCrunch · 06/12/2017 05:58

Alice

Alice

I know a few Luna's but really dislike it.

LarkDescending · 06/12/2017 09:57

Alice for me. It's an enduring classic, while Luna seems to be rather "of the moment".

NataliaOsipova · 06/12/2017 09:57

Alice! Definitely.

Brokenbutbreathing · 06/12/2017 10:06

Alice all the way!

PrettyLittleBrownEyedMe · 06/12/2017 10:11

Definitely Alice.

Luna Lovegood. Luna...tic (as PP have said). Loony Luna. All connotations slightly dippy. Don't do it.

helpmum2003 · 06/12/2017 10:15

Alice - gorgeous and classic!

Oliversmumsarmy · 06/12/2017 10:18

Luna
Alice just has bad connotations for me.

SottoVoc3 · 06/12/2017 10:20
