... for a girl. Too out there or nice and unique?

Its not an attractive name if I’m honest.

AwfulBeryl · 04/03/2023 22:31

Does it rhyme with vagina ?

inappropriateraspberry · 04/03/2023 22:31

Sounds like a car. The new Vauxhall Dagnia!

cocksstrideintheevening · 04/03/2023 22:31

Awful

JamSandle · 04/03/2023 22:32

I like it!

Hercisback · 04/03/2023 22:32

Dag nee ah or Dag n eye ah?

Either way it's not great.

kitsuneghost · 04/03/2023 22:33

Is it pronounced danya?

MissBattleaxe · 04/03/2023 22:33

It sounds like a form of backache

I agree. A Hyundai, perhaps?

Trying really hard but can't see any way for it to rhyme with vagina. Have you missread it?

LunchBoxTeeth · 04/03/2023 22:35

Vagina was the first thing I thought when I saw that name. Although the back ache comment made me laugh!

MolkosTeenageAngst · 04/03/2023 22:39

Personally I’d lose the Dag and just go for Nia.

Coffeellama · 04/03/2023 22:40

It’s not even that it’s too out there, it just doesn’t sound like a very nice name for a person.

MrsMitford3 · 04/03/2023 22:41

oh dear.
100% no.
awful

Pantsomime · 04/03/2023 22:41

It sounds like something contagious or a disease

RebeccaCloud9 · 04/03/2023 22:42

Daggy vagina

AnotherSpare · 04/03/2023 22:45

If you have nordic or northeastern Europe roots then you can use it well. It's a lovely name, which means new day. I know it more as Dagny or Dagnija.
If you don't have those roots then I think it's different to pull off.
You won't get a popular response on this site.

fancyfrogs · 04/03/2023 22:45

Absolutely not. I get that it doesn't read like it rhymes with vagina, but that's instantly what it made me think of

It's Yooneek rather than unique (and not nice)

Highlandflingbling · 04/03/2023 22:46

Used to work with a dagmara, I think she was polish. We called her daggy

SageRosemary · 04/03/2023 22:48

It's probably best left to the Norwegians, do you have Nordic roots?

MrsWojadobakowsky · 04/03/2023 22:49

A town in Romania or somewhere?

ourflagmeansdeath · 04/03/2023 22:49

Oh god I dislike this. Not even sure how to pronounce but it's so so awful. Can you imagine a little girl, teenager, adult with this name?? Terrible, I'm sorry. But I do like Nia if that helps which could be a nickname for Dagnia.

sanityisamyth · 04/03/2023 22:50

Awful.

Annabananna1 · 04/03/2023 22:52

It's Eastern European I think?

Dag-nee-ah.

Nice enough it you have a connection to that part of the work. I quite like it actually it's strong.
