Hope or...Hazel

Girl Names
1

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] has always been a favourite of mine but I don’t want a [name_f]Hope[/name_f] and a [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. Which one does everyone prefer?

2

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. 100%

3

Anyone else??

4

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. I’m not a fan of virtue names

5

I prefer [name_f]Hope[/name_f], also like Hopie. I want to love [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] but it just makes me think of the eye color (and irises) and witch hazel.

6

[name_f]Hope[/name_f]. It’s timeless and meaningful. I like [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] but it’s super trendy at the moment and just doesn’t hold the same weight for me.

7

Definitely [name_f]Hazel[/name_f].

I find virtue names to be rather fluffy.

8

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is a favorite of mine. As for [name_f]Hope[/name_f], well virtue names are so bland and boring nowadays.

9

I prefer [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] is nice and not as trendy but it doesn’t grab me personally. [name_f]Verity[/name_f] is my fave virtue name. In fact [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f] is on my list!

10

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. Totally.

I think the Z gives it quite a bit of spunk, esp with NN Haz.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] sounds to me far too ‘little girl who can’t stand up for herself’. The only women I’ve met called [name_f]Hope[/name_f] I’ve thought deserved a name with a bit more IN it.

11

I agree with this.

12

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] is nice, but I much prefer [name_f]Hazel[/name_f].

13

My vote goes to [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. I think it’s definitely fine to have a [name_f]Hope[/name_f] and a [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] though, they’re not similar at all except for the first letter- of course if you just don’t like them together that’s a different matter. :slight_smile:

14

I prefer [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] sees rather dated now . it’s also used on soaps too much

15

[name_f]Hope[/name_f]! But I have a 7 y/o niece named [name_f]Hope[/name_f] & a great Aunt (who isn’t very nice) named [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], so I’m definitely biased here.

16

Hopping on the [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] train! It’s on my list =]

I agree about the virtue names being bland. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] is not a name to me. It’s a word.

17

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] definitely

18

I love both, but I think [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is less popular, which is a plus!

19

Thanks for the replies everyone. Anyone else?

20

I vote [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] too.
