Which do you prefer?

I also have a George and a Matilda.

Erin. Sweet name.

SummaLuvin · 18/10/2022 15:42

Zara

StrychnineInTheSandwiches · 18/10/2022 15:43

I prefer Zara.

Erin will always be a brand of powdered soup to me.

Watchthesunrise · 18/10/2022 15:44

Either. Both nice. Leaning toward Erin.

TeenDivided · 18/10/2022 15:45

Both nice.
Anything ordered alphabetically by first name a Zara will always be last unless there is a Zebedee, Zian or Zoe in the group.

Zara

There are Erins all over the place

lennylion · 18/10/2022 15:45

Zara.

Anon778833 · 18/10/2022 15:46

Zara

Nap1983 · 18/10/2022 15:47

I really like them both!

mathanxiety · 18/10/2022 15:48

Zara goes much better with George and Matilda.

Erin is a brand of soup.

Iguanainanigloo · 18/10/2022 15:51

Zara! Erin, just doesn't have a nice sound to me. Plus I know a.... "difficult", not very nice 7 year old madam with that name, so probably tainted my view on it slightly!

pimlicoanna · 18/10/2022 15:55

I much prefer Erin

Spanielsarepainless · 18/10/2022 15:56

Zara.

Roselilly36 · 18/10/2022 16:09

both gorgeous names.

watermelonwizard · 18/10/2022 16:10

thank you all! I'm loving the soup comments - I never knew! 😂

Zara

Yourstory · 18/10/2022 16:11

I like both. I actually think Erin goes better with the sibling names but she will be a person of her own one day so I wouldn't let that sway you.

Luredbyapomegranate · 18/10/2022 18:23

Zara, Erin is v 90s / dated and a bit low rent.

Zara goes better, but they are both very different to George and Matilda though, which are much more distinguished with long histories.

JamSandle · 18/10/2022 18:48

Erin

S25 · 18/10/2022 18:53

Zara, gorgoeus!

DeeDeeDaisy · 18/10/2022 19:02

Both were on my list for DD. Never heard of the soup brand but you could also say Zara is a clothes shop...who cares haha!

Leaning towards Zara but I love both

Samzzz · 19/10/2022 07:12

Zara is a gorgeous name!
Erin is a bit meh and too popular

watermelonwizard · 19/10/2022 09:15

Thank you all, most appreciated! Seems Zara is most popular, and I think my fave too.

@DeeDeeDaisy out of interest, as we must have similar tastes, what did you end up calling your DD? You're right about the clothes shop, which my son has too with clothes from ASDA and my daughter Matilda with the book/film. Although powdered soup may be the least appealing of those 😂

It is good powdered soup if that helps 🙂

I really like Erin, but I am Irish and possibly biased.
