  • I like it, but my brain gets a little tripped up on the pronunciation. 
  • It's cool on someone else's kid, but personally nms.

  • NMS personally, but it's a nice name.  Also uncommon which is nice.
  • This is one of those names I keep coming back to and want to love, but I just don't. I think I would be happy for someone else to use it, just not me. 
  • This is a gp name for me because I like it and think it's stunning, but I don't think I could ever use it myself. I'd love to hear someone use it though. 
  • I love Imogen.

    This exactly.

  • A lot of people on here really like this name. But you asked for honest opinions, I really don't like the name at all. It reminds me of the band Imogene Heap, and doesn't sound like a girls name to me in the slightest.

  • I don't understand the appeal of this name. Makes me think of the word emoji, or imaging, and just doesn't sound like a name at all.

  • I want to like it, but for some reason I just can't. It's not terrible, offensive or made up so you've got that going for you.

    Imogen Heap isn't a bad, it's the name of the singer who is a woman.

    I really like it as long as it's pronounced im-oh-jen.  Pretty :)
  • I really like Imogen, but it's definitely not a name that was on our list.
  • I'm with pp that it seems like a lot of people on this board love this name, but I just don't. There's nothing wrong with it, I just find it unappealing.

    Imogen Heap is the artist's name.

  • How do you say this name? I don't like the way it looks. Like em-o-gen ?? 
  • I don't like it and I don't know why.

  • I think it sounds harsh.  It doesn't feel feminine in the least.

  • This was on my list but DH vetoed it. It wasn't one of my top 3 choices but I do like the name enough to have considered it for DD. If you love it, go for it. 
  • This might be weird, but all I hear is imagin' which is how people in the South pronounce "imaging." I worked near an imaging department so that might be why.
  • I like the name and have a positive association - as a child I loved the book The Best Christmas Pageant Ever and the character Imogen from that story. I haven't read it since I was a kid so not sure how it stands the test of time but it's what I thought of upon hearing the name. Good luck!

    My honest opinion? I can't, for the life of me, understand this name's appeal. It sounds atrocious. It makes me think: emoji or imagine. And it just sounds so awkward and....yuck. Just no.
