Last minute name doubt!

[withsexypantsandasausagedog]

I was set on the name Seren if baby turns out to be a girl but now having last minute doubts! We live in England and have no obvious welsh connection. I doubt family/ friends have heard of the name Seren before.I guess I am worried about reactions and crazy pronunciations... I had been thinking about this name before baby was conceived but now not so sure.. Is this the hormones?

I am having similar doubts about one of the boys names I had previously loved! Argh!

The welsh word is pronounced
SERR-enn.
The stress is on the first syllable (cf. Karen, Chloe etc).

It will date.

Oh just noticed Mild posted that!

I love the name. My 15 year old was at nursery with an awesome Seren.

My friend has a Seren - Id never heard it before, but once I’d heard it said once it caused no problems. It’s very pretty, you should stick with it!

The pronunciations in the link are good.

Thank you @Mike, @MildThing, @MrsBibby.

That's pretty much what I thought.

Honestly I really don't like it and pronunciation will be hard but it's your baby and all that matters is that you like the name, I wouldn't be influenced by other peoples decisions

It's a lovely name, I know a little Seren and she is an absolute poppet x

I have a Seren, she is 9. We are not Welsh, I just loved the name. I do have to spell it often, and she has been called Sarah or Seven, or Serene! But I'm still thrilled I chose it.
