What are your thoughts on the name Heidi? Does it work with an English surname and no German/Swiss ties or would it look out of place?

I’d use it but we have a Clara & my husband won’t let me

Love it. Don't see it as non-English these days tbh, despite its origins.

Love it!

ChrisPrattsFace · 26/08/2019 19:41

I love it. It’s my dogs name though... 😬😁

Polestar50 · 26/08/2019 22:53

Love it!
It's a pretty and traditional name but not at all cutesy to my ears. Works equally well for a little girl as well as a grown woman.

I think it's been around long enough to not need the cultural connection too.

I love this name
