Horatia or Harriet?

[RishiRich]

I think Horatia is dashing, Harriet is pretty. I prefer Horatia but it's a bit of a brave choice.

No not Horatia
It's awful
Harriet is sweet but will become Hattie.

I absolutely LOVE the name Horatia.

Horatia is just wonderful.

Strong, classic, unusual. I love it.

It will be divisive though and remember the reactions you'll get here will be different to those when there's a lovely girl and it's her name.

they'll always be a 'gosh' reaction as it is unusual but over time it will be her wonderful strong name which belongs to hear.

I'd love to be called Horatia.

Harriet is nice.

Oh dear lord, don’t do that to a child, Horatia is horrendous!!

Harriet is nice. Horatia is absolutely horrendous.

Horatia is a glorious name, full of verve, I love it!
In comparison, Harriet is nice if a little dull.

Harriet - and I don’t even like Harriet.

Horatia and Harriet are so different I'm surprised it's a choice between those 2 names. Surely there's something less horsey than Horatia and less 'standard' than Harriet

Horatia sounds like a medical condition.

Everyone hated Horace when I floated that too and suggested Horatio 🤷🏼‍♀️

High 5 to the fellow likers of Horatia! It definitely doesn't start with 'whore'. It's HO-ray-SHE-ah. The Horatia in GH had a black monobrow and gambled a lot. I liked her!

Horatia!

Strong, beautiful, interesting.

I know lots of little Harriets currently!

You realise babies grow right.

I quite like it.

Much better than Harriet.

I believe in GH she was known as Horry?

I don't like Horatia, not keen on Harriet either. I do, however, like Hortensia.

I also thought miss trunchbull!!

Horatia sounds like someone Bertie Wooster would get engaged to by accident.

I really dislike Harriet - sounds so harsh.

Helena, Hortencia and even Horatia are nicer imo.

Harriet. X

Horatia just makes me think of Hiroshima. Horrid horatia.

Yes, this.

Harriet is a bit dull though. How about Henrietta, Helena, Hermione or Hera?

I don't hate Horatia, it's just.. a lot.

That’s Honoria, which is a fabulous name.

Oops missed off the quote in my post, Bertie gets accidentally engaged to Honoria. Which is a great name could work as a middle ground op?

Horatia is fab. Harriet is a bit tweedy.

I like Horatia but prefer Harriet. I also like Hermia.
