Saskia. I don't like the pronounciation or spelling of Esmae.

Smallonesaremorejuicy · 22/10/2022 00:05

Saskia

DramaAlpaca · 22/10/2022 00:16

Saskia, by a long way.

I don't like that spelling or pronunciation of Esme, but Saskia is nicer anyway.

Cats23 · 22/10/2022 00:18

saskia

CormoranStrike · 22/10/2022 00:19

Saskia

Joolsin · 22/10/2022 00:19

Saskia. Esmae is horrendous.

Luredbyapomegranate · 22/10/2022 00:54

Saskia - great name

Esme is way overdone and giving it a younique spelling makes it worse not better, she’ll spend the rest of her life spelling it. She will not thank you.

Esme (not Esmae...or Saskia, sorry)

Exactly this

EdgeOfACoin · 22/10/2022 07:51

I prefer Esmé to Saskia

I prefer Saskia to Esmae

KangarooKenny · 22/10/2022 07:53

Esme, not the other two.

Vinylloving · 22/10/2022 07:59

Saskia, or even better Sasha

Potatomashed · 22/10/2022 08:00

Saskia. Cool girl name. Esme is a bit soft

sopeas · 22/10/2022 08:39

Saskia! - haven’t heard it in a long time! sounds really fun and spritely to me

FairytaleofNewHampshire · 22/10/2022 08:46

Definitely Saskia.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 22/10/2022 08:48

i dont like esmae
esme is quite nice
saskia is harmless

ChillysWaterBottle · 22/10/2022 08:59

I think esmé and saskia. Unsure about the other spelling x

FennelAndOnions · 22/10/2022 09:07

Saskia.

Esme is way too popular and I really dislike it anyway.

OhNoOhDearOh · 22/10/2022 09:12

Esmé has become a very popular name now so for that reason I’d choose Saskia.

sageandbasil · 22/10/2022 14:42

Saskia!

DuchessOfSausage · 22/10/2022 14:44

Saskia by a mile. Esmae is awful.

ofwarren · 22/10/2022 14:45

Saskia
