Frankie or Brynn for our baby girl?

Frankie or Brynn for baby girl?

I prefer Frankie but my concern is it's more popular. We like uncommon names.
Brynn is very uncommon in our country.

The one and only 😆

Gwen is better. Just don't add any extra letters.

Anything but Brynn.

Or...people do things differently in different countries, and that's OK. I'm quite sure we've bastardised a few things of our own.

Neither

But people are "being kind" to your daughter.

On MN, we don't have a Topic for "please all agree with me and say how wonderful my thinking is".
If you ask 'the internet' their opinion on names, then people will give honest opinions - which is surely helpful ?
If you have already decided, then why post ?

I'm with everyone else.
I think it is very unkind to give a girl, a boy's name, so don't like either. Even if you spelt Bryn correctly.

I agree.

I spend a lot of time on name threads because I think it is one place where the honesty of anonymity is genuinely useful to the op.

We all know we gulp and try to smile when people IRL tell us they are naming their baby Murgatroyd because it's an old family name.

Brynn is awful for a girl. Very like Bryan.

Frankie is a popular boys and dogs name where I live but it would work as a shortening for Francesca.

You could have Briony or Brianne.

Or Brianna?

OP, I much prefer Frankie, but you’ve had some really mean replies!

I’ve just seen an account on IG and her name is Brynne.

That's terrible.

I prefer spring water myself…

😆😆

There was a Brynn on dance moms. I’m Welsh so it threw me but i really like it for w Girl!

I’m surprised that so many see Frankie as a boy name, I’m from the era that associates it strongly with Frankie from the Saturdays 😅

To be fair she didn’t ask for opinions on the names, she asked which name people preferred, you can say which you prefer even if you like neither

Me too! I don’t think of Frankie as a boys name at all! Frank obviously but not Frankie, I’ve never known a boy called Frankie (and I did go to school with a frank)

If you are dead set on Brynn, how about a hyphenated name? Brynn May sounds nice, in a familiar sort of way..

Yass queen! Love it 😃
