Thoughts on our names

[newdaylight]

We're expecting a girl and we're down to 5 names. Would be interested to see the thoughts of MN!

Sabine
Molly
Abigail
Norah
Olwyn

Molly and Abigail are my two faves

Never heard of Olwyn so that automatically gets a 👍 and like Molly

I love Norah but know what people would say and it would annoy me.

Personally I like Abigail best, then Molly. Olwyn and Norah are quite ugly names imo. Sabine I also don’t like.

Sabine or Abigail. Congratulations!

Sabine - lovely. Sab-EEn or Zabeenuh pronunciation?
Molly - fine
Abigail - fine
Norah - dislike.
Olwyn - Absolutely NOT. Olwen is fine but Olwyn is bluddy awful.

Sabine 💕
I also like Abigail and Molly.

I only like Abigail from the list. Very pretty name

Norah is on my list although I think we have eventually settled on something else!!

I have an Abigail who's always been know as Abby.
Sabine, pretty name
Molly, too common
Norah, sorry Norah Batty
Olwyn, prefer it spelt Olwen

Molly or Abigail

I would spell Olwen rather than Olwyn ( I believe wyn is the male name ending in Wales )
So
Olwen ✅
Abigail ✅
Sabine , not keen , I like Sabrina though
Molly , too many around
Norah , not keen

I like Abigail or Molly best from your list.

Sabine is lovely.

Sabine - like, but the story of the rape of the Sabine women might put me off.
Molly - OK-ish, (a bit too cutesy) but better if just used as a nickname for Mary.
Abigail - yes, OK, but it has a bit of a servant vibe to me, which I'm not wild about. But it's a nice nam.e
Norah - not keen. If short for something like Leonora I'd like it more.
Olwyn - Olwen is the spelling. I like it.

Olwyn is the welsh word for Wheel. Olwen is a name from the Mabinogi.
-wyn names are boys names, -wen names are girls names.
Olwyn isn't a boy's name.

I like Sabine very much & Abigail is nice enough.
Molly is too cutesy for me.
I really dislike Norah.
Olwyn - just no. It should be Olwen as pps said, but I'm not keen

I absolutely love Norah.
Olwyn is the name of an elderly headteacher I knew.
Sabine is also v pretty.

Thanks for your thoughts everyone. Just come across the Sabine back story. Very off putting!!

Olwyn is my grandmother's name. I'm sure it was wyn rather then wen but I best check as we're thinking of im using as a middle name if not first. We quite like Olly.

I really like them all.

I think Norah and Olwyn are my favs though also really like Sabine (never met one) and Abigail. Molly is lovely too but a bit more popular and cutesy. Middle name maybe?

Abigail

Don’t like Olwyn whatsoever

Norah. Prefer Sabrina to Sabine.

Abigail and Olwen are my favourites (not sure about Olwyn spelling). Molly is nice. Not a fan of the others.

I like Abigail and Olwyn. I think people will pronounce Sabine wrong and it will lead to confusion.

Love Sabine and Abigail.

Not a fan of Olwyn. I think it should be Olwen for a girl, too?
