Seredith

[Tillygetsit]

I'm reading a book at the moment and one of the characters is called Seredith. I've never heard this name before. Have you?
What do you think of it?

@Tillygetsit

I don't think people have bothered to read my OP. I am NOT wanting to call a baby that..I lost a baby at 4hrs old just before lockdown and there are certainly no plans for another after that.

I am so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you x

OP, I am sorry for your tragic loss.

I don't think anyone was being mean--they didn't know your (very upsetting) situation about your poor little baby.

Sounds like one of those over-the-counter preparations you can buy to help you sleep

[Twisique]

I quite like it, but I also liked the Binding. It does sound like it's an old name.

[ZoyaTheDestroyer]

I was just curious and wondered if it was an old name as The Binding is historical fiction of sorts.

It's fantasy, which is why the author has made up some names.

[GoshHashana]

Awful. Like Renesmee.

Sounds like a prescription drug

This was my thought too! I used to know a lady called Meredith, though, and always liked that name.

[Chickoletta]

Thought it was a typo. Meredith is beautiful.

[FelicityPike]

I think it’s horrible. Sorry.
Meredith is lovely and fairly unusual these days.

[allfalldown47]

Apologies if this sounds brutal, at worst it sounds like a std, at best like a typo.
Sorry!

[JacquelineLadyBugg]

I'm not massively keen on the sound, but then, I don't even like the name Seren...think it's the Ser- bit I'm not especially keen on. That said, I think Seren is a lovely alternative to Seredith.

I also really like Meredith, with nn options Merry, Red, Edie.

[Smileandtheworldsmileswithyou]

I don’t like it at all

[AngelaScandal]

Sounds like a prescription drug

[Tillygetsit]

It's not YA or science fiction. I was just curious and wondered if it was an old name as The Binding is historical fiction of sorts.

[eveningfalls]

Seren is a welsh name, think it is nice without the 'dith' stuck on. I think it means star, but I am not welsh so not sure.

[user1477391263]

I don't think it's hideous at all, but yes, very YA "unique".

I think I would mishear it as "Sarabeth".

[DerbyshireGirly]

Hideous

[MrsKypp]

It reminds me of Shoreditch! haha.

[Awwlookatmybabyspider]

It's like Meredith gone wrong

[Allmyeye]

Typo for Meredith.

[RiaOverTheRainbow]

There's a trend in some YA/sci-fi books to make up names by mashing real ones together. Are there other odd ones in the book?

[LemonyFace]

@LouiseTrees

Like it’s a typo and should be Meredith

Yep! Exactly what I was thinking.

[RedRec]

It is awful.

[PineappleSquosh]

I’d assume it was a typo for Meredith. Which is lovely btw.
