Re: Opinions on these names?
in reply to a message by Rose-Berry
Davina - McCall. Although this association wouldn't nearly be as strong when you go outside of the UK. Other than that, the actual name sounds ok.
India - although I don't really like places as names, this one is actually really pretty.
Louisa - very nice, I like it.
Tamsyn - I prefer Tamsin. The name itself isn't bad though.
Fern - don't like it.
Bryony - i want to like it but I don't, because I can't get over the 'Bryan' sound. Plus, I used to know a girl with this name who wasnt very nice.
Freya - it is pretty, but it doesn't exactly sound new to me in Britain (I've only known 2 though)
Rosa/Rosanna - I like both names. If Rosa is a nn for Rosanna, well, normally I don't like using established names as nns but this one isn't so bad.
Sienna - Sienna > Sierra. But I don't really like either.

Davina McCall bothers me too. And I realise Tamsyn is less popular than Tamsin. I just prefer the Tamsyn spelling as I think it looks prettier and reminds me of a character from one of my favourite childhood books.
The Bryan part of Bryony used to bother me too but doesn't any more. I think I'm gradually going off Freya so not sure I'd ever use it for real. Thanks for your feedback.
Btw, I hadn't realised you were in Britain. I just assumed you were American.
