Love Verity

Puppulangstrumpfi · 15/06/2020 13:37

Lovely names. My favourite is Therese.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 15/06/2020 14:07

I love Terese.
Verity is just about okay.
Can't stand Daphne.

MikeUniformMike · 15/06/2020 14:17

All ok, but Verity is a bit like ferrety.

HeronLanyon · 15/06/2020 14:21

Like all three.
I know a daphne - oh two one in 60s one late 20s. Think this helps me like it.

Least fond of verity. But like it.

Therese has already been spelled differently on this thread let alone pronunciation issues. - don’t think this is a problem.

Congrats !

Verity is the nicest.

I've always really liked Daphne. Lovely. I have a beautifully fragrant one just coming into flower in my garden. Very sophisticated for a floral name (compared to the more girly Lily, Poppy, Rosie names which are so popular)

I want to like Verity but there is something that jars. It has a slightly hard sound to it (strangely enough I quite like Violet which has very similar sound)

Therese is beautiful but do expect to clarify spelling and pronunciation. However once people know they should get it right as it's really not that tricky.

I love Daphne and Verity. Not keen on Therese as just makes me think of Theresa May.

Whatsyourflava · 15/06/2020 14:47

Sorry we have different tastes but Verity and Daphne nicer than the other option

Anni3getyourgun · 15/06/2020 15:19

Love Daphne, that’s my favourite from your list.

sweetnosugar · 15/06/2020 15:21

Daphne is my favourite.

AmelieTaylor · 15/06/2020 15:23

Therese will be a nightmare all her life. Pronunciation & spelling

Daphne - Scooby Dooooooooi

Verity wouldn't be my choice, but the best of the 3 IMO

Edith - that's of a similar vein & not overly used

123Dancewithme · 15/06/2020 23:54

I like Therese and Daphne.

DramaAlpaca · 15/06/2020 23:59

I absolutely adore Daphne.

Verity is OK, a bit spiky. Therese isn't bad at all, just not my style.

Tillygetsit · 16/06/2020 23:01

I really like Therese. Very refreshing. Daphne isn't my taste but I can see the appeal and Verity is a bit ferrety as a pp pointed out.

HedgeHogFoxBadger · 16/06/2020 23:43

Instead of daphne what about Delphie?
