Well, obviously OP disagrees with you and likes names that sound like this. To my ear, they are so much better than Kacey or Bella or the piffle that passes for girls’ names these days. These are strong names, for grown women.

Everyone has an opinion. This is a crowd source. Obviously she can name her baby whatever she wants to.

It sounds like posters here are bored and want to be mean.

I think Astrid and Imogen are beautiful names.

I am Swedish and don't like either name. I would go with Ingrid.

Astrid is one of the cousins in Crazy Rich Asians.


She is the elegant cousin who is as kind as she is beautiful.

Astrid is beautiful (and not that foreign to Americans, please.) but it does have ass and turd in it. It is so unfortunate.

I don’t like either. Astrid is harsh. Imogen ( my spell check went nuts with it) is also somewhat harsh. Can you look at other Swedish names ?

I love Astrid! My co-worker's daughter has that name. His family is Swedish.

Imogen sounds like some kind of pill- a trashy medicine like for losing weight or something- not even a real medicine.

This.

What’s your name, op? If it’s something traditional like Emily or Claire, then do you think it’s fair to saddle your kid with such an unusual name?

In addition to Assturd, there’s Asteroid.


DP. I resent having a top 10 name.

Astrid isn’t “Pilot Inspektor”
