Imogen, Esther or Winter?

[Orangestarfish]

A bit stuck for names for DD3. Opinions on the following please -

Imogen
Esther
Winter

Or other suggestions. Thanks.

Esther.
Imogen is nice but it will be Immy
Winter is bleak

Summer !

I think Winter is a beautiful name

Love Esther.

On similar lines, do you like Ingrid or Elspeth?

@fortifiedwithtea

Why is Winter ridiculous? When Spring or Summer are acceptable.

Personally I like Winter , gives me Game of Throne vibes. Imogen and Ester are lovely too.

In fairness, I can't imagine people who dislike the name Winter would be fans of the name Spring either

OP, personally I vote Esther

Imogen and Esther are fine classic names.

Winter is really awful - sorry.

I have a 16 year old Winter ❤️

Imogen tops that list by a mile. Quite a way behind is Winter and right at the bottom behind almost every other girls name that exists comes Esther.

Imogen is classic, though always seems to end up as Immie.
Esther is fine but I prefer Elspeth.

Winter is a bleak season or a surname. What's wrong with normal names these days?! Completely different to your first two and not in a good way. She'd probably be Winnie in no time.

I like Winter but I think Esther is more universally acceptable.

Well, lots of food for thought! Most people seem to love Imogen, hate Winter, and Esther seems like a bit of a marmite name... Thanks all.

@Orangestarfish I love winter! Plenty of autumn and summers out there! People pulled a name at my choice, but now she is her name!!! X

Pulled a face

Also Winnie as a nickname 🥺😍

I love Winter...it's sweet

Cannot stand Imogen...such a frumpy, clunky name

@AnxiousAnnie86

Also Winnie as a nickname 🥺😍

Winnie is such a sweet nickname!

Imogen at a push. Esther only if you are Jewish. Winter? Sorry but no.

I love the name Winter. I wouldn’t have chosen it for my own children because it would sound very silly with our surname, but with the right surname it would be lovely. My favourite time of year too.

Winter’s out there but fine for a nov/dec/jan/feb baby.
I am secretly at an ex colleague’s June born DGC given the name though,

Esther is lovely, I possibly wouldn’t use it unless fairly religious, Imogen is another generally nice name.

IMO, Esther is fab. Imogen is "meh" and Winter is a bit daft.

Imogen at a push. Esther only if you are Jewish. Winter? Sorry but no.

@Tiramiwho I've never really seen the name Esther as being particularly Jewish, although it obviously has Hebrew origins. I wonder whether you wouldfeel the same about names like Naomi or Abigail? I can see how using a more unusual name which is not from your cultural or religious background might be a bit odd, but Esther is a pretty well-known name now, so I don't see it as an issue.

Esther or Imogen

If you live in the UK, winter is no longer the white, sparkly season portrayed on Victorian-inspired Christmas cards. It is muddy, wet and rainy.

Calling someone Winter would be like calling them 'Mud'.

Imogen.

Esther is a bit old lady and Winter is just as ridiculous as Summer, Autumn, April, May, June, Robin, River, Wren and Willow.

I really like Winter ❤️
