Meredith

[Highlowpo]

We loved Edith for a little girl but close friends have recently used it. We've been thinking about Meredith instead - with either Edie or Meri as a nickname and I'd love to know what people think?

It’s lovely, and I tend not to like anglicised Welsh names.

Lovely name, it was my first choice for DD but I couldn't use it because I live in Wales.

Ignore all the 'only use it if you're Welsh' stuff up thread, it's a boy's name here. Use it and delight in your little girl's gorgeous name!!

Thanks everyone. Husband spent a lot of his childhood in Wales although not Welsh herritage so it feels apt.

Lovely name, especially with an Australian accent for some reason!
Merit is a lovely shortening.

Bloody auto, Meri

Lovely name with some gorgeous shortenings. One of the nicest I have seen on here!

Meredith is a lovely name, much better than Edith.

Love it. It was on our list but DH vetoed.

Very nice. Having Merry/ Meri as a NN can only be good thing!

Gorgeous

Have one so biased, have always loved it! She is the only one we know.

Thank you again everyone for your responses. You've made me feel much better after a pretty shitty couple of days.

Agree with PP. Love Meredith. It's one of my favourite girls names atm x
