Meredith or Harriet?

[Fedoos]

Pregnant with DD2 and we've whittled down the list of names to two (for now).

Meredith and Harriet.

What are your opinions on these two? Which do you prefer?

Harriet feels like the 'safer' choice but I can't stop thinking about Meredith.

Oh right I see it now Meredith

Why not call her Edith????

Meredith.

Meredith is beautiful. I like Harriet but it’s quite popular whereas I’ve never met a little Meredith

I love Meredith, much much nicer than Harriet. Edie is cute as a nickname.

Harriet for sure. Meredith isnt a very pretty name in my mind.

Meredith sounds like a surname.

I loved Meredith for DD2 but DP hated it. Are you a Greys fan OP?

Meredith

I don't like Harriet, don't know why just never have.
I love the name Meredith especially because of Grey's Anatomy but I think it's a very grown up sounding name for a young child.

Harriet. Was on my list if DS was a girl.

Definitely Harriet

@Crunchymum - I'm not really keen on just Edith. TBH, I actually think Edie is a bit of a stretch too. Probably wouldn't go with that.

@BlytheofWindyWillows - Yes, I am a Grey's fan. I'd never choose a name just based on that. I genuinely just love the name, although Grey's must be why I don't class it as an old lady name like some others seem to!

Thanks to everyone for your opinions. Definitely leaning more towards Meredith now. Perhaps not everyone's cup of tea but what name is?

Harriet - but I'm not wildly keen on it - it's a bit "worthy" for my taste. However, I think Meredith is really awful.

Meredith is lovely.
There are so many Harriet's about- it is lovely but not so much as Meredith.

Very true OP, no name will be universally liked, so just go with the name you love.

Harriet
