Really? I know TONS of kids named Sara/Sarah.

As a Sarah myself, I will let you know that your kid will always be asked, “is it Sara or Sarah?”. It’s a common name. It’s fine though!

I'm a Sara and I've been happy enough with the name. I've lived all over the world and I really love that people from different cultures feel a connection to it, "beautiful name, my wife is a Sara/h!" and it is easy to spell and pronounce in different languages. It's very versatile. It was top ten when I was born in the 80s, but interestingly I was only one of two in my high school (850 kids) so I didn't experience the Sarah P, Sara K, Sara F, thing people seem to dislike.

I didn't use it for my daughters because I named my dog Claudia in my 20's thinking I might not have kids...I just love that name!

How do you pronounce Bryony?

It's Bry-o-nee. That's actually my cats name because I liked it so much and didn't have a girl!

Isn't that the awful girl from Atonement, but she spelled it Briony.

It is the same name but the y spelling Bryony is the original. Although if you read the book atonement the girl comes off much better and more complex than in the movie.

I like the name and have been toying with using it as a middle but someone pointed out that it sounds a bit like Brian-ee and that ended it for me. LOL

It doesn’t sound at all like that. You’re mispronouncing it.

So what is the name? If you can’t say it, why’d you post?

Laura is great. I say stick with it! I dont think it is popular at all. I dont know any young Lauras

What about Magdalena? You can get a lot of cute nicknames from it and I think the full name sounds pretty.
