Love Saskia


My DS asked me if I like the name Ginger this morning…weird. My answer was not particularly…sounds like a cats name. But then told him about Ginger Rogers.

Ginger - cute for a pet
Alexis - Dynasty
Pandora - Don't want to open that box
Christobelle - LOVE but only if spelled Christabel
Arabella - Much prefer Araminta. Arabella strikes me as a name on the rise with the masses.
Coco - Cute but NMS. I prefer Nina, which has the same carefree, delicate sound but is more elegant IMHO.
Marnie - Nope
Antigone - Great name, but half the world won't know how to pronounce it.
Saskia - Stunning, especially if pronounced SAH-skia
Willow - Very pretty but seems to be getting more and more popular
Olympia - I like it! I also like Octavia
Allegra - Love it

Top picks would be Christabel, Saskia & Allegra.

Good luck with your decision!
