Which name do you prefer? :)

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I like them both and both have nice nicknames, Zinnie and Cassie.

Pinkjellyfish · 05/03/2019 21:04

I know a baby born last year called Zinnia but I prefer Cassia myself - it’s very pretty!

123Flopsy · 05/03/2019 21:04

Cassia is beautiful. But please don't shorten to Cassie!

Niveous · 05/03/2019 21:11

The OP may not but other people in the course of the child's life (including child herself) may want to.

DramaAlpaca · 05/03/2019 21:13

Of the two, Cassia.

Susannach · 05/03/2019 21:19

Definitely Zinnia!

SallyWD · 05/03/2019 21:27

Cassia is much nicer

AuntVanya · 05/03/2019 21:35

Zinnia.
But would prefer Cassie to Zinnia or Cassia.

Cassia, beautiful name. Zinnia Wormwood off Matilda puts me off the name.

Tavannach · 05/03/2019 21:51

Zinnia

WoahThereMama · 05/03/2019 21:53

Love Cassia. Not keen on Zinnia.

holidayarmadillo2019 · 05/03/2019 22:16

Cassia

MollyYouInDangerGirl · 05/03/2019 22:20

Cassia!

GrouchyKiwi · 05/03/2019 22:23

Zinnia! Zinn is a cute nickname for a precocious 10 year old.

CocoLoco87 · 05/03/2019 22:29

Cassia!

RayaJambalaya · 05/03/2019 23:00

Oooh either 😍

EyUpOurKid · 06/03/2019 19:20

Of the two, Cassia, but how are you pronouncing it? I know a Kasha and a Ka-see-ah. Both spelled Kassia.

BlueMerchant · 06/03/2019 19:24

Cassia by far

123Flopsy · 06/03/2019 20:28

Kasha?

Bumblebeesmum · 06/03/2019 21:43

Cassia is nice I’ve never heard of Zinnie

PointlessUsername · 06/03/2019 21:58

Cassia

ChoccyBiccyTastic · 07/03/2019 07:07

Cassia

MercyBodle · 07/03/2019 09:06

I prefer Cassia.

CaptainCabinets · 07/03/2019 20:54

Cassia. It’s lovely!

Zinnia is Matilda’s mum.

Nonameyet1 · 07/03/2019 21:17

Not keen on either, sorry
