Trying to decide between Carys Hope and Iris Hope for DD1. DS1 is Nathan Luke. Any thoughts?

I’m in Scotland and haven’t met anyone with either name! x

I'm in London and know 3 Carys's (all in their late teens) and quite a few Irises (the oldest must be 17; there are more little ones around now).
It has never occurred to me that anyone would mispronounce Carys - my parents are Welsh so maybe that's why but it seems a very normal name to me.
I like them both. I think I slightly prefer Carys as it feels softer than Iris. But they are both lovely.
