Farrah

[blitzthehouse]

What do you think of the name Farra for a girl?

Farrah

Fawcett

No.

Horrible. Also sounds like Farah, the clothing brand, which is also horrible.

Just my opinion though

I like unusual names generally, but I can't get my head round it because it makes me think of the awful trousers.

I know only one Farrah, she is from Iraq originally & obviously it suits her.

Old MAn Polyester Trousers.

no,it's not very nice,F Fawcett Majors and vile polyster slacks

fI think you could get away with it if you were quite posh, other wise, NO.

oh lord, no. Too hair flicky with bell bottoms.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my ds goes to school with a Farrah Mai who goes by Mai
They are quite chav

What about Freya? Thats what i have called my dd

Freya is much prettier!

My DP is a professor in electrical engineering and I wanted to call baby girl Faraday (after Michael).

But - friends/family and dp thought it was too like Farrah (and therefore to chavvy) - luckily we had a boy. Still like Faraday though - but not Farrah. Sorry.

Faraday Ohm

gotta ring to it

nuh uh

I quite like it
Agree though, you would have to be posh to pull it off

Farah - quite popular muslim girl's name - I rather like it in that context. Less keen on spelling of Farrah for some reason. Everybody will say Fawcett won't they? Or "slacks"

i am called jessica but my dad wanted to call me farrah apparently

although i am one of the thousands that are called jessica i am so glad i was not a farrah

so so glad

Love it.

It's not a posh name. Might be a wannabe posh name. It's probably lovely in the language it came from, but I don't think it travels well. What other names are on your shortlist?

I like it - but I'm a bit biased since it IS my name! Spelled Farah. I'm not Iranian and I don't think I'm particularly chavvy I will say people have a hard time getting their heads' around it no matter how much I spell it for them so that I usually have to resort to "like Farrah Fawcett" But once people do get it, I often get lovely compliments on it.

I agree not a posh name at all, almost the opposite. Very masculine too!
