Brooke or Astrid?

Ready... and go....

 (MN Margot after DH's grandma)

Hmm. I like both of these.

I think Brooke Margot flows better, but both are really good choices.

Brooke! So pretty!

Astrid makes me think of The Office where Michael keeps calling her "as-TURD"

lol

Neither. But I will go with Brooke since I don't have a choice other wise (Don't hate it, just prefer something less blah)

Brooke... not a fan of Astrid.

Astrid is awful, IMO and it reminds me of Astro from The Jetsons.

I have a Brooke, so I'll go with that! However, I don't think that Brooke Margot flows that well together.. .

Astrid is a guilty pleasure name of mine, I love it!

This.  Brooke is a bit of a redneck name where I live, but I like it batter than Astrid.

Thanks!

I've considered this, but we don't really plan on calling her her FN-MN really.  So, it's more of a honor thing.  And it would be Brooke M.  Lastname.

Wow!  This is like the fastest I've ever had any responses to any of my post on TK, TN, TB, ever.  (then again I don't post that often)

Thanks for the input.  It's funny the things that conjur up memories for ppl.  I've never seen that ep of The Office.  Going to try to youtube it.

I love Brooke

Please no on the Astrid. I also think of the office and so will everyone else for the next 10 years. I like Brooke much better

Razz08

I like Brooke more, but like Astrid paired with Margot more. I choose Brooke.

LaComtesse

Astrid by a million miles. To me, Brooke is a dated, cheerleader-y name. Astrid is spunky and lovely at the same time.

THIS! It absolutely ruined the name for me. However, I still think it's very pretty.

I vote for Brooke

100% agree

I don't see the appeal of Astrid, at all.

Brooke Margot is nms but nice.

YES! And then when Michael meets up with Jan years afterward and Jan calls her "Assie"

I liked the name until then.

I was thinking the exact same thing!  Ha! 

CactusGirl

I don't really like Astrid, but yes, The Office did make it that much worse by calling it Assturd. And later Jan calls her Assy once as a nickname and for me that just isn't a serious name anymore. Brooke 100%.

DEF Brooke!

 Astrid just does not sound like a real name to me... and Astrid Margot doesn't flow well together.

Moneypenny424

I used to really like Astrid, but the more I say it, the more I think it is very harsh sounding.  I think Brooke Margot sounds better--though to be honest, Margot is my favorite name of the group.

KtB0605

Astrid!

BLPL101

Brooke is beautiful. Astrid....is not.

Haley.Beth

I like Astrid, and it sounds better with Margot. However, I am also into the origins and meanings of names...Astrid originates from an old Norse name derived from the words meaning "god" and "beautiful." Brooke originates from an English surname denoting "one who lives near a brook."

What about Astrid Brooke? I love both! 

alliejo725

I like both, but prefer Astrid.

I suppose Brooke is less likely to get made fun of, but it seems to be having a resurgence lately. I like that Astrid is (considerably) less popular.
