Having a last minute wobble before the birth; Serena or Esme, which one is your favourite? UK based and one syllable last name. Thanks!

Esme is lovely.

Serena is lovely.

With Esme the esmee/esmay, do you put an accent on it/do you not, thing would annoy me. Plus for some reason it just sounds very meek to me.

Thank you everyone, reading all the answers, still very undecided!

I love the flow of 3 syllables with a 1 syllable surname so I would lean towards Serena of the 2 - plus it is much more timeless and elegant sounding with no spelling or pronunciation issues.

Esme is very pretty so I can see why you are torn but has spelling and pronunciation issues plus is quite trendy - it’s rare you meet any older than their twenties.

I like Serena a lot more, it's a beautiful name.
