@Krumblina , it's a nice name, but you'd probably get a lot of comments about the BP dog from those old enough to remember her.

Most people probably don't remember now!!! My children wouldn't have a clue!

I used to work with a Petrina. I thought that was nice.

Not sure about the names with moan in them negative connotations and negative vibe.

Petra is nice and the only Frida I know is a friend of dds who is very beautiful and good at sport so would go with that.

Frida from Abba?

Ramona
Mona
Petra
Frida

I find them all a bit depressing, Bob Dylan songs or dogs' names. I like the PP's suggestion of Pandora.

Mona = moaner

Frida is nice and so is Petra but I'm old enough to remember Blue Peter pets.
