Astrid for a girl

[Prettysparkles]

Hi, I am still really undecided on this name. Thoughts please 😄

Yes I like.

Love it. 😍 Was my preferred name for dd but got vetoed. There's an Astrid in DS's class at school but not come across another one.

I went to ballet class with an Astrid in the 80s, she was tall, slender, blonde and graceful. I was... none of those things. Whenever I hear the name it reminds me of how fabulous she was.

It's OK. I prefer Aster.

I love, but wouldn't dare use, Astraea.

When one thinks of the name Willow, would you think of rude connotations, such as Pussy Willow? Or do you think that is overthinking a lovely name?

I love it too. I think its it's a strong name.

I know a very cool 10yr old Astrid

The problem with Willow is not nn but associations with slenderness, height etc. What if your DD turns out to be short and stocky and maybe a bit chubby?
Pussy Willow is lovely and not in my experience associated with the other meaning of pussy.
Astrid, on the other hand, is fresh to the English speaker and doesn’t have the sort of associations many more common names have.
