Lydia or Zara?
My husband likes one and I like the other.

Zara.

Zara, I really dislike the sound of Lydia.

Peachbubble · 18/12/2018 17:56

Zara. I like Lydia, but think of Lydia Teapot every time I see/hear it.

Zara

They are both great.
Is the baby here? If not wait and see which one you prefer when you meet her?
If I had to choose I’d pick Zara but i love them both.

Lydia is gorgeous, the other is a clothes shop.

Zara, much underused.

I prefer Sara (pronounced the same as Zara but sounds a bit softer).
Lydia is an ok name.

Sophronia · 18/12/2018 20:09

Zara

I like Lydia. Beautiful ❤️

Zara

TheRedFox · 18/12/2018 20:14

Much prefer Lydia.

I don't think Zara is very interesting and just makes me think of the clothes shop.

Lydia is different and unusual without being too out there.
