DH and I are really struggling with a name for our second DC due any day now. We both like Tristan but neither of us are completely convinced by it. I like that it is a traditional but uncommon name, and DH likes that it is Celtic.

My main concern at the moment is that if you google Tristan it comes up with loads of pages about Tristan Thompson and the Kardashians! I hate the thought of that being people's first thought when they hear the name.

What do you think about it?

Cornish. It's a Cornish name I went to school with many Tristan's in the 80s/90s

I think it is a cute girl name. I always think of it like Kristen but with a T instead of the K.
