Names similar to Sienna

[Luckyelephant1]

I absolutely love the name Sienna, DH likes it but doesn't totally love it. Looking for similar suggestions, nothing too flouncy or prissy sounding but still feminine at the same time. Bonus if it sounds slightly/fairly Indian as baby will be mixed race but happy to get some 'out there' suggestions that I wouldn't have thought of otherwise.

Sennen. I think its Welsh

I was gonna call my baby Seraphina! Everyone here was really supportive of the name. However last minute I chickened out I thought it was beautiful but also ‘unusable’ in real life.

Aw that's a shame! I get what you mean though, wouldn't say unusable but yeah I can't find the right word lol. Did you call her something similar to Seraphina instead?

I just couldn’t imagine using the full name and my husband and I couldn’t decide on a NN. I liked Sephy and he liked Fina. I felt that the name would make people do a double-take since it’s so unusual! And having a middle name as well would make the name look super long. The other thing was we aren’t Christian but it’s quite a Christian name. Seraphina’s meaning is based on the seraphim who are like ‘super’ angels burning with fire. Haha I thought it was a lot to live up to!!
Anyway, we called our baby Iona in the end (we both liked it).
It was HARD finding a name though. It just seems SO important doesn’t it!!
