Re: Wren
in reply to a message by Tuesday
I love it. It's a family surname for me, so I've actually considered using it, either as a name in its own right, or as a nn for Renata. It's refreshingly simple and the mental image of a tiny bird is very sweet.
Wren Laura is nice. For me, Wren brings to mind a Victorian Christmas card I saw once with a chubby little wren in the snow near a brick wall and a holly bush. So the combination Wren Victoria is the first thing to pop into my head. Others you might like (sorry for any repeats):
Wren Olivia
Wren Aurelia
Wren Dulcinea (= a sweet wren)
Wren Isidora [but not if your ln is Bull. Wren Isadora Bull sounds like wren is adorable. :-)]
Wren Ophelia
Wren Camilla / Camille
Wren Larissa ("lar-EE-sa")
Wren Dorothea
Wren Althea
Wren Olympia
Wren Ariadne
Wren Elizabeth (not imaginative, but it looks so well balanced)
Wren Arabella
Wren Isolde
Wren Astrid
Wren Evelina
Wren Louisa
Wren Susannah
Wren Ailsa
Wren Beatrix / Betrys
Wren Aisling ("ASH-ling")
Wren Glynis
Wren Myfanwy ("mi-VAWN-wee," = my lady)
Wren Letitia
Wren Damaris
Wren Fidelis / Fidelia (= a faithful wren)
Good luck and be sure to let us know if you like anyone's suggestions (i.e., mine). ;-)

What a fortunate family surname to have! Hey, now that you mention it, a nice family name I have is Flannery. Wren Flannery doesn't sound half bad...
Out of your list, I love:
Wren Olivia
Wren Isidora - Hehe, my surname isn't Bull (yet, at least!)
Wren Ophelia
Wren Larissa
Wren Elizabeth
Wren Evelina
Wren Susannah
Wren Betrys - I've never heard of this spelling, but I really like it!
Wren Aisling
Wren Fidelia - awesome meaning :)
Thanks so much! I have a lot to think about. :-)
