Sorry, but yuck. Don't like it at all. It sounds really twee.

Jbck · 01/11/2008 14:19

Lovely if she was teeny & cute or very willowy in teenage years but what (not that your dd will be I'm sure) if she's a big bessie bunter

belgo · 01/11/2008 14:22

I don't like it.

What did you call her in the end?

nappyaddict · 01/11/2008 14:22

I like it. My friend's middle name is Fawn.

Fawn = not good.

Eva is a million times better.

Littlefish · 01/11/2008 14:40

Oh, that's so much nicer. A lovely name.

belgo · 01/11/2008 14:48

Eva is lovely.

DippyDora · 01/11/2008 17:41

Looks like dh was right then (for a change )

I'm with your partner on this.

MrsMattie · 02/11/2008 12:51

I'm really sorry, but you did ask - absolutely HIDEOUS.

pointydog · 02/11/2008 12:57

agree with your dp

Nancy66 · 02/11/2008 13:08

thank god your husband vetoed it...Eva is lovely

peanutbutterkid · 02/11/2008 14:08

Fawn sounds a little like a porn star, tbh. (Sorry).
I like Fern, which is similar (think Charlotte's web).
