Shireen? What do you think?

What do you think of the girls name Shireen?

@Starryskiesinthesky what does Jim Delahunt rhyme with? A part of the female anatomy... 😉

Haha not sure why I didn’t work that out!!! Was thinking too much of Shereen 🤪

[givememarmite]

We had this on our list but spelt Shirin (DH is Afghan and it was his grandmother's name) but I actually found it a bit too sweet and not quite strong enough.

Do you have any other favorites?

I've been trying to think of some names that might sound similar if it's the sound you like...

Zareen
Roshni
Soraya
Shahin
Sahar
Sanaz

PS we watched GoT but it never even occurred to me to link it to that character!

I've not seen GOT (tried to watch several but it's boring) , but I'm not convinced people will remember names from it in Ten years.There's 1 fan on my Facebook and lot's of "I've seen a few" fans they usually mention tits and shagging.

Shireens lovely I was at school with a shireen she was frighteningly clever and very good at sports, deputy head girl, invited to every birthday but couldn't afford to go to all of them and was really honest about how skint her family was.

A side note - Her brother was the sort of hot that could have caused a lot of trouble, had he not been completely obsessed with Cricket and Football with ZERO interest in any of us.

*There is One Fan on my facebook -that should say

It's my name. It's a beautiful Persian name meaning sweet in Farsi. These idiots talking about GoT and saying it's made up are just bloody ignorant.

I think it's very pretty, but obviously wouldn't use it in an area where it's associated with a woman's privates. That would be unkind. As for GOT, I like some of those names, the association wouldn't bother me.

It reminds me of Sharon which I don’t like. The “een” ending is a bit old fashioned. Not influenced by GoT because I have not watched it ever.

One of my best friends growing up is Shireen so I like it.

I don’t watch GOT so had no idea it was in that.
