4th Baby Girl - Swedish Names

47 replies

sportsmixture2202 · 30/07/2019 23:34

I am Swedish, my husband is English. We are in England 75% of the time, spending all school holidays in Sweden.

Baby number 4 is due early September.

Our 3 girls are
Rebecka Milla , Ellinor Carin and Linnea Astrid.

We can't decide on a name for our 4th girl. Her middle name will be Marie

Tyra Marie
Evy Marie (Evy = EV-ee not EE-vie)
Thora Marie
Asta Marie

Which is your favourite?

Asta Marie

MrsBertBibby · 30/07/2019 23:38

Thora. Great name.

Colourfulest · 30/07/2019 23:38

Asta Marie is the nicest by miles! Also, Linnea Astrid is absolutely beautiful 😍

bridgetreilly · 30/07/2019 23:42

Thora!

Of the four I like Evy Marie.

I can't help myself though. My grandmother was born in Finland but her first language was Swedish. I recently learned from family tree research her middle name was Adelia. Adelia Marie would be pretty too.

Shadow1234 · 31/07/2019 00:33

Evy Marie is my favourite

Ellmau · 31/07/2019 00:38

I like Asta best.

I love Thora and Asta.
Evy is really lovely too but I think in the UK it would be likely to get pronounced as Evie.

Your other girls names are gorgeous. I love Carin.

DramaAlpaca · 31/07/2019 00:48

Any of Asta, Tyra or Evy, I like them all.

I really don't like Thora, it's ugly in comparison to your other names.

CallItLoneliness · 31/07/2019 00:50

As someone with a frequently mispronounced name, please don't choose Evy--it's a lovely name, but correcting people all your life is a pain.

OwlBeThere · 31/07/2019 01:04

I really like Evy!

OwlBeThere · 31/07/2019 01:04

Also Asta.

Sophronia · 31/07/2019 01:23

Thora Marie

Astronica · 31/07/2019 01:48

Asta Marie is the standout name for me. (Your older girls' names are beautiful!)

2nd choice Tyra. I dislike Thora.

ThePalehorse · 31/07/2019 01:50

Asta Marie 😍

Ariela · 31/07/2019 01:57

I like Thora best.

At work we have the most lovely Swedish customer called Inga, which I think is a really nice name.

CallipygousElephant · 31/07/2019 02:29

I like Evy! Thora is my least favourite.

Jxtina86 · 31/07/2019 03:57

Asta Marie is beautiful.

Love your older girls names- my cousin's daughter is a Linnea and my own daughter is Astrid!

Peachbubble · 31/07/2019 07:15

Asta Marie

username1724 · 31/07/2019 08:30

Evy or Asta are both brilliant!

SemperIdem · 31/07/2019 08:48

Asta Marie is lovely!

Junobug · 31/07/2019 09:15

I love Thora, but I think Asta goes better with the names you already have.

MikeUniformMike · 31/07/2019 10:43

Thora Marie. It rocks.
Asta makes me think of Hasta la vista.
Evy will get called Evie, Eva... (yawn)
Tyra - ok, just not keen on.

missdumbledore · 31/07/2019 10:49

Asta Marie or Thora! Beautiful names.

Ninkaninus · 31/07/2019 10:55

Asta is best.

Tyra would be pronounced TIE-ra unless people knew better, same as Evy would be mispronounced.

I’m not keen on Thora unless pronounced Tora, which I’m assuming is the Swedish pronounciation. People would probably say Thora (as in thorax) here...
