Names !

[lucxxx]

Hey guys. So I have completely changed my mind on baby girls name! I have three in mind which are -

Robyn (my favourite)
Imogen
Sienna

I am due on Boxing Day! What do you guys think?

Robyn is my favourite, and I like Imogen too.

Imogen

Love Robyn - gorgeous

Imogen out of those.
Then Sienna.
I don’t like Robyn spelled like that. I’d use Robin.

I love Robin
Sienna seems like a celebrity baby name to me. Siena/Sienna - don't dislike it but there's something too trendy about it. It will date horribly.

Imogen is ok too but I think she'd end up being immy which sounds a lot like a lot of other names that have been popular for years. So, definitely Robin!

1. Robyn
2. Sienna
3. Imogen

Definitely Robyn, not keen on the others.

Imogen

Definitely Robyn. Especially given the time of year. Minor point , I prefer the " Robin" spelling personally, ( I have one ) , but either way it's a fabulous name. Adult DD loves and has always loved being called Robin.

Robyn, Sienna and then Imogen.

i always thought Robyn with a Y was the girls version and Robin with the i was for a boy. The Robyn’s I know are all girls and my friend has an uncle Robin.

I love Robyn. Might be slightly put off giving it to a Boxing Day baby because there could be years of comments but think I'd still do it. Would stick with the the y spelling for that reason too (plus, in the UK, it's always been Robyn for a girl and Robin for a boy. I don't think other countries have that distinction so it might be fading out here too, idk)

I like Imogen too. Sienna is ok.

Imogen or Robyn. Like Imogen best.

There are plenty of female Robins - Robin Curtis the actress comes to mind, and Robin in the Strike books although admittedly she is fictional! I prefer it without the y, but either way, I think Robin is a lovely name for a Boxing Day child. I also really like Imogen.

Congratulations

love Robin (no need for the y spelling IMO, it’s a weird 70s invention. Robin is unisex eg actress Robin Wright)

Imogen is OK

Not keen on Sienna - Serena, Sabrina, Selina, Sanchia, Susannah, Shoshanna, are all nicer alternatives I think

plus, in the UK, it's always been Robyn for a girl and Robin for a boy

I don’t think this is true, I had several books when I was young with female Robins

I think the Robyn spelling for a girl is new-ish (60s, 70s)

I know two elderly female UK Robins - one just Robin the other short for Roberta

I don’t think the y spelling is used for girls anywhere else - in the US it’s deffo just Robin. I think it’s fussy.

I would have thought Robyn in America and Robin in England, Ireland, Wales Scotland.

Also, I think that Robin has pretty much fallen out of use for boys so if I heard of a baby Robin born 2022 I would still assume girl. I mean, I wouldn't bet my house on it, but I would think Robin is a girl.

Love Imogen- classy and elegant
Like Sienna - boho chic
Not a fan of Robyn (or Robin)- dated and American.

I also thought that Robyn was the female version! I will definitely keep that in mind! I was more worried about Sienna being American and dated, such a hard choice as I don’t want to chose a name to then regret not choosing another name in the future.

I love Robyn especially for a Winter baby. However I'd spell it Robin.

Imogen!

Imogen

Of the three, Imogen.
Robyn/Robin as a middle name would be a nice nod to the time of year. Boxing Day birthday is not the best birthday.
Good luck

Aww Robin is gorgeous for a Christmas baby. Do you think she'll get Bobbie? Reminds me of the railway children. Although she was a Roberta. Imogen is timeless. I know it's fairly trendy but it was the name Enid Blyton chose for her daughter in the thirties.

Sienna just feels a bit Brit pop and of it's time. Like Brittany or India.

I think Bobbie is cute for a nickname! But I personally probably won’t shorten her name.
