I have a Heidi Elizabeth!…….she is the only Heidi in her primary school. Beautiful name !

SnarkyBag · 10/08/2021 12:45

I love Heidi it would have been my choice if I’d had girls

Mysa74 · 10/08/2021 12:51

I love Heidi, I've never met one and it always makes me smile...

Mysa74 · 10/08/2021 12:52

How about Clara as an alternative if you really need one Grin

Aorh · 10/08/2021 12:54

I love it!

fluffedup · 10/08/2021 12:58

I like it too, and Heidi Elizabeth goes well together.

Velvetbee · 10/08/2021 12:59

Love it.

Awful

I like Heidi and think of it as Austrian/German/Swiss. I knew a lovely Heidi which definitely changed my view of the name.
Think if I hadn’t I would not like it interestingly. Feels ‘thin’ with so many condiments if I really think about it. Also seems a very ‘young’ name.
But I like it because of great woman.

HeronLanyon · 10/08/2021 13:18

Consonants not condiments ffs (quite a good auto correct there). More to the point I meant ‘vowels’ anyway !

Monkeytapper I have a Heidi Elizabeth too Grin she's the only one in her very large secondary and was always the only one in primary. There is another Heidi living in our village she's 50

I'm biased but Heidi is a beautiful name

Warmduscher · 10/08/2021 13:24

I love it Smile

Love it

BigMamaFratelli · 10/08/2021 13:28

Love it

Greenmarmalade · 10/08/2021 13:29

Lovely. Increasingly popular, but not overly so. I know 3 (all lovely!)

noblegreenk · 10/08/2021 13:51

Love it! I wanted to call dd Heidi but unfortunately dh wasn't keen.

DramaAlpaca · 10/08/2021 14:21

I dislike it. It's harsh and twee all at the same time. A big no.

TheWayTheLightFalls · 10/08/2021 14:22

Yodel-ay-hee-hoo

hanahsaunt · 10/08/2021 14:23

I love it :)

TempsPerdu · 10/08/2021 14:41

It’s OK. A bit cutesy for me but I see it as a ‘happy’ name and it’s simple, straightforward, not excessively common etc.

Could never use it myself as I have a Greta and the pair of them would sound like they’d escaped from a Grimm’s fairytale! Grin

valleyplaza · 10/08/2021 14:53

I like it, and I think of Ingrid and Imogen as being along the same lines.

CatMuffin · 11/08/2021 10:04

I love it

DazzlingCreature · 11/08/2021 10:09

Nope, I think that Heidi should be milking goats with her grandfather.

iamdashi · 11/08/2021 13:41

I love it. It's interesting there are all these Heidi Elizabeths - it's a lovely combination, but strange coincidence nonetheless.

I agree with PP that Clara is a lovely name too, and thematically similar.
