Astrid

Esmé - very pretty

Astrid always makes me think of the word 'astride'
Cindi is too doll-like and Cynthia is too fussy.

Astrid

That said, if you’re down to 3 wait for baby to be born. One might just stand out for her more.

momtoboys · 30/06/2023 14:44

Esme

Cynthia. It looks and sounds beautiful and has a tantalising mid-century chic. I can see Cynthia nestled in the conversation pit, cocktail in one hand, Françoise Sagan novel in the other, listening to something groovy on the hi--fi.

She doesn't have to be Cyndi for short. I know one who goes by Cyd.

AlbertaWildRose · 30/06/2023 15:03

Esmé and Astrid are both lovely. Personally I don't like Cynthia, it sounds dated, but you should choose whatever name you want!

Astrid.

The others a hard no - Cynthia is the best of the others but reminds me of Angelica’s scary doll in Rugrats

Astrid - like
Esmé/Esmae - Esme is ok, Esmae not ok, Ezmay/Ezmae -awful
Cindi/Cynthia - Cindy is ok. Not keen Cynthia, Cindi is bad

Mumofgirls2017 · 30/06/2023 17:07

Esme

YukoandHiro · 30/06/2023 19:11

Esme

PickledScrump · 30/06/2023 20:00

definitely astrid

Esme you will always have pronounciation issues.

TaylorSwifting · 30/06/2023 20:03

Cynthia

SneezyEvie · 30/06/2023 20:04

Astrid! I loved it but husband vetoed. Use it for me!!

TrueScrumptious · 30/06/2023 20:07

Astrid.

Esme -spelled like that, no accent, is fine. Definitely neither spelling you used.

Not Cindi or Cynthia.

yikesanotherbooboo · 30/06/2023 20:12

Astrid is my favourite
I'm over Esme and don't like the 'May' pronounciation
Cynthia is pretty ; not convinced by Cindy.

KnickerlessParsons · 30/06/2023 20:21

If you're going to put an accent on Esme then it should be Esmée as she's a girl.

shoopshoopdedoo · 30/06/2023 20:56

Love Esme (not Esmae)
Cynthia is OK
Really dislike Astrid

marshamarshmallow · 30/06/2023 21:04

Always loved Astrid.

Have a soft spot for Cindy too - my best friend's name - she was named after Yogi Bear's girlfriend!

LulooLemon · 30/06/2023 21:09
  1. Astrid
  1. Esme, no accent & pronounced Ez-mee
PickledMuffin · 30/06/2023 22:06

No, it doesn’t. Nothing to do with stars.

veryfluffyfluff · 30/06/2023 22:27

Cynthia

PickledMuffin · 30/06/2023 22:42
