Thoughts on these names?

[RachelGreenie]

I love both of these and wanting some opinions outside of family and friend circles..

Blessy
Truly

? X

Blessy would be better as Blessing
Truly reminds me of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

Truly acceptable
Blessy - Blessing is better, Blessy doesn’t mean anything

I don't mind Truly although its not my cup of tea but Blessy sounds daft.

You could call yourself both names for a while to gauge reaction.

Blessy: what people say when you sneeze

Truly: scrumptious. Chittagong bang bang

Not keen on Blessy - although like pp I have heard the name Blessing before (it's okay - I can appreciate the sentiment behind it, plus she can use the nn "Bess" if she wants something better known) .

I like the sound of Truly, but like True even more (it also helps avoid the "truly scrumptious" thing).

Sorry, I think they're both dreadful. Perhaps something with a similar meaning would work? E.g. Verity, Beatrix / Beatrice, Theodora, Gwyneth etc.

They really don't sound like names to me OP. Sorry

Ridiculous springs to mind.

Exactly this

Both daft. Sorry.

Really don't like blessy.
Truly is ok.

Both awful

They aren't proper names

No - unless your cultural background is such that this type of name is normal, in which case Blessing nn Blessy or Truly sound fine

No, they don’t really mean anything so they are weird as names. If you want virtue names they I think you have to serve them up straight: Blessing, Hope, Constance, Honor, Faith etc - Blessing is my least favourite of these but it’s OK.

I like Truly. I hate Blessy sorry. Do you like Bliss?

Bonkers.

Trudy?

These are my exact thoughts. It’s a no to both from me. I love Blessing though.

...N..no.
Nice idea but wouldn't work for a LO in England.

How about Trudy or Bessie?

Blessing is decent enough.
Truly less so (singing the song in my head).
Blessy......no.

I don't like either OP, sorry

I prefer Truly. It makes me think of Sister Wives, although she spells hers Truely.

I like Truly. It does make me think of Chitty.
I hate Blessy, it sounds like a cutesy nickname and I'd mishear it as Bessie.
