Oh don't let it put you off probably about 99% of people pronounce it correctly and my Talia will definitely let them know if they don't!

Idony.

Emphasis is on the o. She was a Norse deity of some kind. Not to everyone's taste but I liked it. DS#2 wasn't a girl so DH didn't have to leave home

Idony is lovely. If we didn't have a surname that would sound barmy with it, I'd be putting that on a list for future use right now.

wilson is very unusual sounding for a girl

Perdy short for Perdita

misdee · 27/06/2008 17:34

ok

my dd's names currently in use are Nicole Louise, Lauren Jade, Serena Dixie. I adore the name Dixie, and some people are very surprised when they learn its not made up and actually an old name.

For this one, if its a girl, the only name we both like is Sinead.

but i havent yet gone through all of the baby names book so it could change.

Romilly - I always put Romilly on these threads as it was to have been DS's name had he been a DD
