Astryd or Astrid

[ShutUpAlex]

We really love both spellings but can’t decide which one we love more. Middle name Dahlia.

Astrid, to save her from a life of saying “no, it’s spelt...”

Astrid

Astrid

Astrid, by a million miles.

Astrid
There's really no need to change that spelling
It's an unusual name with the normal spelling

Unless that alternative is the norm where you live, then stick with Astrid - no point having to constantly spell out her name if she doesn't have to. Astrid Dahlia is lovely.

Astrid, without a doubt.

I’ve never seen Astryd before, and my phone auto corrects to Astrid. I would definitely stick with the standard spelling else you/she will be constantly correcting people.

Agree with all PPs. Astrid.

Astrid

The first one looks like it should be pronounced 'astride'. That could be unfortunate.

Astrid definitely. Astryd looks like a made up spelling to try and be 'unique' which isnt needed for a fairly unusual name.

Astryd is not how Astrid is spelled so as not to look like complete idiots go for the correct spelling of Astrid

There’s no need to be so rude. Both spellings are in our baby name book.

Astrid.
Astryd looks like you made a mistake.

You did ask - i agree the y version comes across as a bit try hard to be different.

Astrid.

I’d treat your name book with caution, have never heard of Astryd... but I wouldn’t use it, looks try hard and will annoy her for life.

I prefer Astrid.

Astrid. Is it also a brand of moisturiser? I may have imagined that!

I think you might mean Astral Cream! My mum swore by this and she did look amazing for her age. But that isn't relevant to the thread sorry.

That was to @Phoebesgift btw, not you op!

@Phoebesgift That's Astral, lol

Astryd doesn’t appear at all on the Darkergreener baby name app (which means that fewer than 3 babies have been given the name IIRC). Astrid is on it, up to 316th most popular name.

Agree with pp I'd spell it with an i
Astrid Dahlia is a beautiful name!

Baby name books aren't always reliable. Astrid is fine, Astryd looks wrong.
