Be honest on this girls list...

[PoppingGlitter]

Are these really terrible names? Mentioned them to my mum and she said they are terrible, chavvy and 'too unique'. (Yes I know, lesson learnt!)

• Jacinda - has been a favourite of mine since I was a kid (I had a lovely friend as a child called Jacinda) and I've always liked the name Cindy as a nickname. .
• Indiana - always been a fan of place names and I like Indi as a nickname.
• Devon - again, another place name I like.
• Kayla, a longtime favourite of DH and I also like it.

Just want to gather some thoughts, honestly please, I am made of strong stuff!

Names are very much personal choice. I hate to say it but I do not like any of those names personally and a couple do sometimes get screeched across the park by what would be stereotyped as 'chavvy' mums BUT it really is your choice to make!

Devon is quite nice. I'm not mad on the others.

Very common names on my council estate

I love jacinda, but not the others.

I don’t like any of them, if I’m totally honest, (sorry)!

None of them are to my personal taste but they are just names.
(Except Devon which for some reason makes me see scones with cream and jam and I do not like at all ).
Calling a name 'chavy' says more about that person than it does about the name imo.

I don't like any of them, to be honest.

Devon is a deli/lunch meat where I live, so I would be surprised to see it on a person here.

The others are a bit "chavvy", sorry.

I agree with your mum. Sorry.

I am with your mum too.

Jacinda isn't too awful I suppose, but I prefer the actual name Jacinta.

The others are really all that your mum said they are. Especially Kayla.

Kay is very nice. Is that too simple for your taste?

We tried to choose names that would take our kids anywhere - eg with a name like Harry or Ella you could be from any social group and do any job without standing out.

I wouldn’t pick your names myself because I don’t think they fit into this rule.

Are there any others you like?

Go with what you love

Kayla

I like Devon but to me it is very icy a boys name. Indiana is quite nice too.

I actually disagree with the pp. They're not names I would choose, but I don't think they're 'chavvy'. In my area, those names would be things like Jaden, Caden, Kade and Caleb. Which even so, they're names that sound fine individually. I think your names are more interesting than the dozens of Oscars, Amelias, Harrys, Evies that are about. Jacinda, Devon and Kayla work well on an adult as well.

I like Jacinta rather than Jacinda and Indiana is ok but I prefer Indigo.

I like Indiana, I always had on my list of girls names and everyone always told me it was too out there and a bit masculine (think Indiana Jones). You could always go with India (and shorten to Indi) which I like as a girls name or maybe just Ana (nn Indiana).

I like Devon but to me it is a more masculine name. I have a male relative called Devin. The only girl I know called Devon does come from, to use your Mums word a more 'chavvy' family, same with Kayla.

I really don't like Jacinda, but that's just me. You need to pick a name you love. You will always find someone who hates the name!

Well, ultimately it's about what you like, and not what anyone else thinks, but since you've asked...I'm afraid I really don't like any of your choices at all. It's just a matter of personal taste, though, isn't it?

Jacinda Ardern is the current prime minister of New Zealand and a good sort of association to have.

I really don't like Kayla at all, but the others are nice.

The only Indiana I've ever met was quite posh.

I think if you like them then that’s enough!

If you like Indi, do you also like Indigo? Or Lucinda?

I’m not keen on any of them.

I think Indiana is lovely. Not keen on the others if I am honest

Yeah I'm with your mum I'm afraid...

I like Indiana, but prefer India. Not sure about the others.
