It's just popped into my head! We've actually settled on Fiadh but just so pass the time whilst on a nightshfit I'd like to know people's opinions 😊

I'd stick with Fiadh, it's gorgeous.

Morag sounds very harsh to me, not a fan.

nancy75 · 12/03/2018 00:26

It’s one of the few names that makes me instantly say no. I think it’s the ag sound at the end, it’s just not nice.
How do you pronounce Fiadh? I’ve not seen that name before

CoffeeChocolateWine · 12/03/2018 00:32

Really ugly name. Fiadh is much nicer.

MissMoodyMoo · 12/03/2018 00:36

Fiadh is definitely the name we're going with I'm just having a nosey about other names lol

Pronounced fee-ah

Oh! I'm surprised at the other comments! I love it!!

AnyaMoondial · 12/03/2018 01:34

I love it! It is really strong and sounds clean and honest to me.

It stands out against a lot of "a" and "y/ie " ending names.

GayAllen · 12/03/2018 01:46

It has an ugly sound.

Pemba · 12/03/2018 02:04

I agree about the ag sound being harsh.

HoppingPavlova · 12/03/2018 02:13

Sounds harsh but also is a nice strong name.

SuperBeagle · 12/03/2018 02:28

Fiadh is much better.

Morag is awful.

Thistlebelle · 12/03/2018 02:38

Fiadh is lovely but I think Morag is a great name.

We would have had it on our list but it doesn’t with our surname.

Morag is so cute to me very traditionally Scottish and I like older names on babies - it's coming back into fashion

EnlightenedPorkRind · 12/03/2018 02:47

I think Morag is a great name. I don't think it sounds harsh at all. Every Morag I've known has been a lovely person.

DiegoMadonna · 12/03/2018 02:49

It was the name of a cow on a Saturday morning TV show in the 90s. That's forever how I'll remember it Grin

Afternoon · 12/03/2018 07:49

I like it.

SandysMam · 12/03/2018 07:51

It reminds me too much of the word Hag! Fidah is beautiful.

SandysMam · 12/03/2018 07:52

Or Fiadh Blush

KochabRising · 12/03/2018 07:52

I really like morag

OliviaStabler · 12/03/2018 07:57

Morag is an ugly name.

expatinscotland · 12/03/2018 07:59

It's only pretty when Scottish people say it (or possibly Irish people, I don't know), so for that reason, I'd go with Fiadh.

elQuintoConyo · 12/03/2018 08:00

Love Morag after having first heard it on The High Road back in the 80s

Strong, not many around, not flighty and unsubstantial like so many other girls' names.

bridgetreilly · 12/03/2018 09:26

Katie Morag!

I like it, and I like Aggie as a nn.

Glumglowworm · 12/03/2018 10:50

I really like Morag

Like PP my first thought was Katie Morag

mamahanji · 12/03/2018 11:10

Morag is quite witchy to me but I absolutely love it! Fiadh is gorgeous too

Minus2 · 12/03/2018 11:11

Really awful
