Harmony or Harmonica

[ramidad123]

DH came on here a while ago asking for advice for DD. Think we've settled between these two just can't decide. Thanks for any advice ! G

Well that's true @notacooldad it will also be very funny when she's a stroppy teenager.

If you decide against Harmonica, perhaps you could use Euphonium even though it's more a boy's name.

Harmonica is cruel. Harmony sounds like a porn star name.

Only musical instrument that works as a name is, of course, Viola. HTH.

Harmony is a sex shop on Oxford Street. It's a terrible name. Harmonica is downright bonkers.

I don’t think Harmony would make me so much as raise an eyebrow tbh, I think it’s fine.

I know an adult Harmony who has PhD from Oxford is a senior manager in her chosen field, married with 3 children and has never worked in porn or stripping.

When I first met her I thought it was a very pretty name.

Harmony's nice enough.

Harmonica is a musical instrument.
In Superstore (on Netflix) a baby is named Harmonica. And that is meant as a joke for viewers to laugh at. Like Spudulika.

I know a little girl called Harmonie but it's double barrelled with another name

(In northern accent.)

A new kid in the neighbourhood once asked me why everybody was blowing in a particular little girl's ear. I said "That's our Monica".

Harmony could have a sibling called Melody! I like it OP!

@Twisique

Harmony could have a sibling called Melody! I like it OP!

And an unplanned brother called Rhythm?

Harmony is nice enough. I'm not sure on Harmonica, how about Viola or Piccolo?

@ramidad123

Harmony is a real consideration. harmonica is DH thinking he's funny

Really glad for that! Although Viola is a gorgeous and real (Shakespearean) name, but which is also a musical instrument if you wanted that association?

I also prefer musical related Allegra and Aria, over Harmony personally (especially since the Harmony on "Buffy" got called "Harm" as a nn, which isn't pleasant).

I can only see harmony from buffy. Who as pp said, everyone called "harm".

Alternatively how about Jazz

How about keeping Harmony for the second name and calling her Rachael?

How about Hermione?

Harmonica is an instrument and harmony is just a terrible name (IMO)

Just go with Monica - and don't ever tell her it's short for Mouth Organ!

Please don't call your kid harmonica. Absolutely awful name and she'll be horribly teased.

Harmonica! It's a musical instrument

Sousaphone?

tremalo octavia kazoo
harmony acapella
symphony bandstand.

I thought of Captain Scarlet, tbh.

Harmony Angel.

Also:

Rhapsody Angel
Destiny Angel
Symphony Angel
Melody Angel

Or maybe just Angel. Or Scarlet. Or Mysteron.

DD has a lovely friend called Harmony. She's a delightful child and they have been friends for years but still, every.single.time she says her name - which is fairly often - I still sing the bloody Peppa Pig song in my head.
