Thoughts on the name Harmony, I think it's quite sweet but not sure if it's a bit dated?
Thanks

NIPT test is the first thing that springs to mind. So, no, not a fan.

Thanks for the replies. @BritInAus That's what I was worried about, but I do like the sound of the name!

@fuckyouRW Can I ask why? (I've tried googling it but can't find anything that links them)

I think because one of the brands of nipt is called Harmony...

I didn't think that until someone said it though. Its a nice name.

DD has a lovely friend called Harmony and has had for years but I still sing the bloody Peppa Pig song after she’s been round....

I think of Buffy the vampire slayer.

@Modwolvesrock That's actually where I heard the name although I'm aware that the character isn't the best...
Are there any similarish names that anyone could suggest?

I know a lovely Melody!

(But I like Harmony too.)

JediGnot · 27/04/2021 14:05

Tempting fate - surely any Harmony is going to end up as an argumentative bitch from hell?

BingBongToTheMoon · 27/04/2021 14:05

I’m not keen, but it’s not awful.

Thunderblunder · 27/04/2021 14:06

Love the name but my first thought was Eharmony the dating site.

Fozzleyplum · 27/04/2021 14:08

Not great. It is used for too many product names, but also reminds me of Vicky Pollard's friends.

PinkCookie11 · 27/04/2021 14:13

😂😂😂 some of these comments have killed me are so funny!
Sorry op I do like it but never thought of some of these reasons

Peace and harmony in all the world... Thanks that's now stuck in my head lol

My friend's sister is called Harmony. It's lovely.

Stichintime · 27/04/2021 15:01

Think Melody may be better for all the reasons above the possible shootings for Harmony, Har, Harm, Mony Grin(said moany in some accents)

Stichintime · 27/04/2021 15:02

shortenings

notacooldad · 27/04/2021 15:04

I worked with a teenage girl about 2 years ago with that name. Its nice and suited her.

FizzyApricot · 27/04/2021 15:14

I like Melody but like PP said Harmony will get shortened to Har or Harm/s.

CatherinedeBourgh · 27/04/2021 15:16

Isn’t harmony a sex doll? You know, one of those sex robot things.
