Imogen or Astrid?

Both are terrible especially with complicated last name(s).

I don’t understand this. Astrid is really easy to pronounce no matter what the last name. I agree though Imogen is not so obvious which is a potential issue with the name.

Tough crowd. I think they are both beautiful names. Astrid made the short list for my daughter. I actually know 3 Astrid’s. I think imogen is pretty too but I would be annoyed if people called her gene as a nickname which you can’t really control.

Awful, back to the drawing board.

Neither. They are both horrible!

Astrid is lovely. I also like Imogen, but it feels a little too Shakespeare heroine-y. FWIW, Linnea was the Swedish choice on my short list of names for DD.

Love them both!

They sound like prescription medications

I love Astrid. It's known but not common, it's easy to spell and is pronounceable in English and many other languages.
