Cassia! Have never heard the name Cartia before...it reminds me of a horse and cart!

Cassia

Cassia

SquintEastwood · 21/08/2019 19:04

Cassia, I've liked it since I read the Matched series a few years ago :)

Not keen on Cartia.

NameChange84 · 21/08/2019 19:05

Is Cartia pronounced Car-Tee-Uh

or Car-sha like Portia?

What are the origins of the name?

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 21/08/2019 19:09

Cassia is a beautiful name.

ErrolTheDragon · 21/08/2019 19:12

Cassia.

Cartia is the brand name of a hypertension drug aka Diltiazem.

WisestIsShe · 21/08/2019 19:17

Cassia. As above, I've loved it since I read it in a book.

Colourfulest · 21/08/2019 19:31

Cassia, by a million miles!

witherwings · 21/08/2019 20:10

Definitely Cassia.
Cartia sounds like Cartier and like you are naming after a brand.

Petrichor11 · 21/08/2019 20:21

Cassia

Cassia is my favourite girl name, only discovered after DD was born. DC3 was a boy so I've never used it. I adore it.

pikapikachu · 21/08/2019 20:34

Cassia is lovely.

Never heard of Cartia - not sure how to pronounce it and it makes me think that you wanted to call a son Carter but had a girl so went for Cartia or that you like Cartier watches?

FartnissEverbeans · 21/08/2019 20:37

I love Cassia. I’ve never heard Cartia before - it’s not often I come across a ‘new’ name either so it must be incredibly rare - but I do kind of like it. Not as much as Cassia though.

Cassia.

Cartia sounds like a person who has more horses and carts than someone else so is “cartier”.

ErrolTheDragon · 21/08/2019 21:32

Good choice, OP

user1493494961 · 21/08/2019 21:34

Cassia is very pretty, Cartia not so much.

AverageMummy · 21/08/2019 21:41

Cassia is classy and beautiful
Cartia sounds the opposite sorry!

Tillygetsit · 21/08/2019 22:29

I've got one so obvs I think Cassia is a BRILLIANT choice 😂

Astronica · 21/08/2019 23:55

Cassia is lovely.

Clettercletterthatsbetter · 22/08/2019 19:04

How do you pronounce Cassia? Is it Cass-ee-uh (I assume so?) or like Kasia (cash-uh)?
