I love [name_u]Haven[/name_u] as a girl’s name and I am wondering how well this name would age? [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the sound it makes - calm, peaceful, soft, a little enchanting and mysterious to me as well. This name is on my short list. Any opinions/comments are appreciated. Thank you.

It sounds like a name that wouldn’t age overly well. However, I have a slight bias against word names, so I guess my opinion might not be the best!

I actually rather love [name_u]Haven[/name_u], by sound and by meaning, for any gender.

For aging, I’d pair it with a more established middle name like [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Georgiana[/name_f], [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], something like that; I think a good combo could really ground and make this name.

I’ve always really liked [name_u]Haven[/name_u]

I also really like it, oddly. It’s just sweet and soft but not too floppy.

6

I think it’s very pretty. It has a artsy/bohemian vibe. I think it will age just fine.

I like the sound, but something about it puts me off, and I can’t say what.

I like [name_u]Haven[/name_u] for a child, but I don’t see it aging extremely well. The image you describes is nice for a young person but I think it’s a bit too ‘airy’ for an adult. [name_m]Just[/name_m] my personal opinion! Good luck!

I think it’s pretty. It’ll age fine.

[name_u]Haven[/name_u] is one of my all time favorite names! :smiley: I think it would be perfect for a child or a woman. <3

12

I really like [name_u]Haven[/name_u]. It’s a strong name and evokes comfort and compassion. Like someone said above, I would pair it with a more classic middle name. I can completely see it on a compentant and caring adult woman. It certainly will age much better in my personal opinion than some trendier names like [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and [name_f]Maisie[/name_f].

[name_u]Haven[/name_u] is unusable for both women and men in my opinion.

14

I totally agree with all of this! The very first name I thought of was [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. I have [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] on my own list.

15

[name_u]Love[/name_u], love, love it! :smiley:

I know a young woman, who is in her mid-20s, named [name_u]Haven[/name_u]. I just don’t really know how to feel about the name. On one hand, it sort of sounds pretty. On the other hand, it just evokes a mopey, angsty, dramatic YA novel feel. That right there definitely makes me not want to ever use it myself.

17

I think it’s okay…

18

I love it! It reminds me of [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u], another peaceful name, but I like [name_u]Haven[/name_u] better :slight_smile:

I completely agree with you! Thanks!

Thanks so much everyone. I agree to pairing the name [name_u]Haven[/name_u] with a more established middle name. Lately I am really liking the combination [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]. I am attracted to the meaning behind the name [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f], and have no family ties to it. I am open to any middle name suggestions!
