I heard this name the other day on a girl and I thought it was absolutely gorgeous.

What's people's thoughts?

To be honest I find it quite ugly sounding, and not in a strong but unfeminine way, just not a fan of the sound

Not to my taste.

Love Merryn. Not keen on Teryn.

Synecdoche · 17/09/2018 02:25

I've never heard it but I quite like it. Reminds me of 'terra' so has grounding, earthly connotations for me 😊

It is a trendy name taken from Tara. I actually know a boy with this name. His parents took it from Terra. My opinion is that I prefer Tara.

Sounds like a spice. But I'm a fan of proper names. It's your choice though.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 17/09/2018 04:15

I really like it.

Sleepykate · 17/09/2018 05:24

Makes me think of terrapins.

DoorbellsSleighbellsSchnitzel · 17/09/2018 05:53

Prefer Taryn

HPLikecraft · 17/09/2018 10:05

I don't like it.

It makes me think terrible/ terror/ terrorist.

Also, it looks made up (well all names are made up but you know what I mean!)

ShovingLeopard · 17/09/2018 10:06

I prefer Taryn too.

Merryn is also lovely.

rainingcatsanddog · 17/09/2018 10:07

Sounds like a couple name- combination of Terry and Lyn sort of thing.

MyBootsAreMuddy · 17/09/2018 14:41

Teryn sounds like me trying to say Taryn(I'm kiwi)

PiperPublickOccurrences · 17/09/2018 14:58

Totally made up name.

Sounds like something out of Game of Thrones.

kaytee87 · 17/09/2018 17:17

Makes me think of Tehran.

It's not a nice name and looks 'made up'

EnormousDormouse · 17/09/2018 17:21

I know a male Terryn, nn. Tez.

MarthaArthur · 17/09/2018 17:22

I know 2 female Terryn's. Both were nice girls growing up actually so i like it.
