Cressida is lovely, very Shakespearean. It also reminds me of watercress, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I do like it. It sounds kind of villainous to me so it is the name of a villain in a book I’m writing.

I love it very much!

Pity about the cars: as a human name it's good. Pity also about the Trojan War character - not a role model!

Fun and sparkly, golden and bubbling, like champagne.

It's ok

I adore it! It's a twinkly treasure with gravitas.

This was one of the names I considred for myself, once upon a time. I think it's very pretty but just a bit awkward. That Cress- part, hmm. Also, I want to say it kres-EE-dah; but is that even right? Is it more like KRES-ih-dah? That pronunciation seems so unnatural to me, like I'm pretending to be a posh Brit.

I like in on paper, but in reality it just doesn't work for me. I'd love to meet one, though.
