A sister for Lucy.... Mina? What do you think? Please be truthful (but in a nice way!)

It seems like a bit of a name to me. OK as a shortening of Wilhelmina or something, but not on it's own.

I have a friend with a daughter called Nina and I really like that.

Saw the thread title and thought of Dracula/ Sadie Frost etc. Doesn't mean they are not nice names though.

What pronunciation are you thinking of? Meena is great as the real Asian name it is. But I know of a woman in her 50s who pronounces it 'My-nah' and it is just ugly. A gorgeous LO called Mynah? Forget it.

A friend of mine called her DD 'Mirren' which is just gorgeous. It's softer with Lucy - Lucy and Mirren sounds lovely to me.

Lovely names, but my immediate thought was fangs! Could you use it as a middle name, and call her it as a nickname, prehaps?
