Nimue

When I was reading the King Arthur stories, I thought this name seemed strange, and didn't know how to pronounce it. Now that I know how it's said, it's not that bad, maybe even pretty.

Never heard of this name before. It's very unique and rather pretty.

Very lyrical and soft. It reminds me of Sophie because it has a sweet sound and reminds me of a posh girl. But it can be on different types of girls and I feel it has potential. I love Arthurian names such as, well obviously Arthur, this one, and Guinevere. They are interesting names and ultimately names like Sophia and Emma at one point before the 90s or 80s were considered old lady names and unusable. Just imagine a sweet baby girl with this name and it won't feel odd or etc.

This was one of my cats' names. I adore it. The name Nimue evokes a sense of innocence for me. While I'd love to see it used, I'm not sure if it would age well. It's a very child-like sounding name in my opinion.

There is just something very magical about this name: seductive. Yet also innocent.

I've only very recently come to enjoy the name after seeing "Nim's Island" and being reminded of the beautiful sounding Nimue. Such a soft and whimsical little gem that I am fast falling in love with!

Some pronounce it, nee-moo, which I think is not so pretty and too close to Nemo, but the pronunciation, nih-moo-way is sweet. I like the combination Elora Nimue -- VERY magical!

So pretty!

I think that Nimue is a beautiful name, I liked the name so much that I gave it to my daughter.

I love this name! It's so beautiful. The sound of it is so gentle and soft and it simply just flows off the tongue. Just lovely.

I love this name's mythical, medieval quality. It's rare and beautiful, like most Arthurian names.
