Bad.

drquin · 24/05/2019 20:27

It's probably quite unique.

EskewedBeef · 24/05/2019 20:29

Osian sounds similar, and is a name.

Proseccofuelled · 24/05/2019 20:32

Terrible

StoatofDisarray · 24/05/2019 20:35

Awful.

KatnissMellark · 24/05/2019 20:35

Noooooo.

TurquoiseAndPurple · 24/05/2019 20:37

I don't mind it but I prefer Oceana or as a pp mentioned, Osian

Mishappening · 24/05/2019 20:38

No.

Banhaha · 24/05/2019 20:40

I like it

freshstartnewme · 24/05/2019 20:46

For a baby?

titsbumfannythelot · 24/05/2019 20:46

As in Frank?

TheCrowdSayBoSecta · 24/05/2019 20:47

Have you considered Sarah?

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 24/05/2019 20:48

Boy or a girl?

I watched a French TV series once where someone was called Oceane, forgot what it was.

MrsSchadenfreude · 24/05/2019 20:50

Océane is a girl’s name in French.

fedup21 · 24/05/2019 20:52

I knew sisters once called Ocean and Ivory!

madeyemoodysmum · 24/05/2019 20:52

Terrible unless it’s the Irish or french way.

Go with either, your child will thank you

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 24/05/2019 20:56

So a girl then...

I think.

paintwater · 24/05/2019 20:57

I like Osian, or Oisín (which is pronounced more like Uh-sheen so not quite what you’re looking for)
I’ve met a girl called Océane (I assume that was the spelling) pronounced a bit like Oh-she-ann but rather more French than that

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 24/05/2019 20:57

Yes, it was a girl, MrsShadenfreude I forgot what the programme was.

HagridsBigToe · 24/05/2019 21:00

Horrible, sorry.

madeyemoodysmum · 24/05/2019 21:01

I love Esme

taylorlynn · 24/05/2019 21:07

If you love it then go for it Smilesomeone suggested Sarah which is a lot worse in my opinion lol

GrannyHaddock · 24/05/2019 21:57

What about Ondine, instead, "Wave"?
