Lois.

Romy doesn't sound like a whole name and piper sounds like a bird.

Romilly is nice.

JustAnotherMillennial · 12/04/2019 02:51

I quite like Piper.

Romy its my favourite though. I only know one who is about 20 :)

Romy

Lilsquish · 12/04/2019 03:41

Piper or Romy (although i prefer Remi)

Not a fan of Lois - sorry x

MercyBodle · 12/04/2019 05:10

I like both Piper and Romy. Possibly Romy for first place. Not a fan of Lois at all which has a totally different feel to the others.

Piper

ReginaPhalange89 · 12/04/2019 08:03

Lois sounds very dated to me
Romy is one of those ones that's having a moment , a bit faddy for me .
Prefer please to Piper..

Sorry that's probably not helpful is it

Piper

Lois

Lobsterquadrille2 · 12/04/2019 08:42

Sorry to ask a stupid question but is Romy pronounced "Rommy" or "Row-my" (as in row a boat, not as in argue)?

I would say that but prefer Romilly. Sorry, not too helpful but many congratulations!

Romy would be pronounced 'roam-ee' so different kind of pronunciation to Romilly

Lois is beautiful

Romy and Piper a bit well "common" to my ear.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 12/04/2019 09:03

Thank you @girlsname. I like Romy by far the most.

Thank you, it's so hard!
@NotQuiteSlimJim I do see what you mean, however I live in Australia where 'common' sounding names are perfectly acceptable 😂.

17caterpillars1mouse · 12/04/2019 13:48

I like Piper the best and Tony the least

Bellaposey · 12/04/2019 18:11

Piper

bridgetreilly · 12/04/2019 19:04

Lois. Really pretty and not that common.

JustAnotherMNUserPassing · 12/04/2019 19:08

Lois - Makes me think of Family Guy so nope.
Piper - Orange is The New Black but better.
Romy - Romilly is much nicer :)

Moongirl10 · 12/04/2019 19:12

Piper

Shadow1234 · 13/04/2019 03:30

Romy is lovely (only know one irl who is 23)
Lois would be mÅ· second choice
Not keen on Piper

DarlingLittleBabyName · 13/04/2019 13:13

MillicentMartha · 13/04/2019 13:15

Romy is lovely.

Lois is a bit old & dowdy to my ears.

Piper - just no, I hate it.
