For a friend.

[Tillygetsit]

A friend of mine is a longterm lurker on here(waves!) but nervous about posting so I said I'd do it for her.
She is expecting a girl and would like you to rate her shortlist please. I'm staying neutral in this post but she knows what I think!
Jemima
Zinnia
Merryn
Sapphire
Mn will be Elizabeth a family name. Cant be used as first name. Thanks.

Jemima - lovely
Zinnia - is it a flower? A bit too unusual, but fairly nice.
Merryn - not keen
Sapphire - no

They do seem quite different.

It all depends on the surname.
Jemima Jeremiah would be appalling for example.

Sapphire is a big no no.
It reeks of Argos, tinned ravioli and arctic roll if you know what I mean...

I like Merryn but not the others.

Thank you. She's decided on Zinnia.

I'm glad. I think it's the prettiest of her choices.
