Re: Pearl and Rhiannon
in reply to a message by HeatherAnna
In the UK, Pearl is predominately used for older women, although I have seen it recently for a baby girl - jewel names i.e. Ruby, Amber etc are popular at the moment, so it may well be the beginning of a revival for this name!
Rhiannon is a very popular name in the UK, especially amongst Welsh people, at the moment. I love it, and its alternate form Rhianna. I would pronounce it as ree-ann-en

Agree with this
Just to add that Rhiannon has decreased in popularity over the last couple of years as it's no longer in the Top 100 but I think it's probably used more in Wales. I really like it and Rhianna.
I'm seeing Pearl being used a lot more as middle names. I can't say it appeals to me, maybe because I think of it as an older woman's name.
