What do we think of Saffron for a baby with mixed English and Arab heritage? Too Ab Fab still?

I would like Yasmin but DH isn’t keen.

I really like it, it's a pretty name. I've never watched AbFab so no idea if that would be what others think of though.

I love it. Had a friend at school called that. She was lovely. If I'd not had a boy I'd have loved it. Strong name too

I love it and was on my list but my friend got there before me! She is now a lovely teenager but calls herself Saffi

Vey nice but too Ab Fab for me.

Oddly enough just before I saw this thread, I was just thinking about the name Persis which I really like, and would suit British/Arab heritage.

It’s a nice name but expect it to be shortened to Saff by friends.

I love it, my daughter has a similar name and it is shortened to 'saggy' which I love.
