Mina or Nina

[Shortbreadbaby]

I love both but obviously using one will rule out the other.

Definitely Nina!!
Mina (meaner) sounds harsh

Nina! For defs!

I love Mina!

You might as well settle on Nina, which is a lovely name anyway, because if you go for Mina lots of people will mishear, misspell it as Nina.

You could split the difference and call her Ina.........

Nina for me.

But prefer it as a nickname for Antonina/Antonia etc

Mina is the name of one of the other vampires in Dracula

Nina.

Mina is harsh sounding.

I also just think of the word meaner. It’s a nice name otherwise but I think this ruins it. It’s like the name/s Fia, Fiadh, Phia etc.. it sounds like fear. It looks like a nice name but that ruins it.

I prefer Nina.

Is Mina pronounced “meaner”? If it’s a short i sound the spelling Minna would be clearer.

I love Mina. I knew a lovely Meena a few years ago.

Nina is OK but I've met a few and they have all been rather bitchy tbh so that has put me off

Nina is a beautiful name.

Mina makes me think of Minnie as slang for vagina 😬 sorry! Although I wouldn't think that if the child was of Indian background actually.

So, maybe it depends on your family background.

Nina
No question.

I prefer Nina.

Lena is a similar name, also nice.

Yeah good point above Mina will constantly be misheard and called Nina anyway.

Nina is much nicer

Mina.

Nina. It's less whiny than Mina.

Can I be awkward and mention how much I like Lina......

I actually know twins called Meena and Neena so using one doesn't have to rule out the other!

Nina.

Definitely.

Nina!

Mina is awful, sorry.

Nina, without question.

Nina is the sweetest!

Nina

Yikes! Yes it does. They’re awful twin names

Nina.
