[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there,

Currently hesitating between [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] and [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] as a first name. What do you think?

[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
or
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]

Thanks!

Both such lovely choices! I think works either way so maybe choose based on your preferred nickname? I love [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] for [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

If popularity bothers you, [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] doesn’t even rank in the US and is in the 900s in the U.K. - whereas [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] is in the 900s in the US and the top 100 in the U.K. so the more unusual choice would be [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f].

Thanks everyone!
I think I also like [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] better but I can’t think of a nickname for it. [name_f]Rosie[/name_f]? [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]? Not the same “o” sound though… and I’m not a fan of [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] or [name_f]Roz[/name_f].

Another vote for [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]. I knew a [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] who went by [name_f]Rox[/name_f] and [name_f]Roxie[/name_f], if you like those better than [name_f]Roz[/name_f]. But also I think [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] is a perfectly reasonable nickname for [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] too

I think I prefer [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]. Both charming.

Tricky! I think [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] flows better but I prefer [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] as a name. I think it’s the [name_f]Roz[/name_f] sound that I’m not super keen on. But [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] is very sweet. Otherwise [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] perhaps.

16

Hard to pick but [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] does it!

17

I love both names, but [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] flows best and [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] is such a cute NN! :heart_eyes:

[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] has my vote for sure! Sohnds lovely
