It's noice, it's different, it's un-ewe-sual.... :p
No seriously, it is pretty, and if it suits your little girl then you should definately use it! :thumbsup: Is it a name from Greek mythology or something ? (It rings a bell for me, but I can't think where I've heard it before)

The girl's name Ione is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "violet." Flower name.

I think it's a beautiful name...The only other girl that I know(I don't know her personally) who has that name is Ione Skye(actress)...

THAT'S where I'd heard it before, thanks guysmum!! :D
I saw that name in a Traci Harding book...The Ancient Future, I think. Fantastic name! :)
I like Hermione myself... ;)
My personal opinion I am not a fan of it! Sorry!:o
I think its a sweet name, a variation of it, Iona (eye -ow- na), was the name of a friend I met at uni. My only reservation about it, is what middle name will go with it?

I think thats a great name as long as you know that people will be pronouncing it wrong for ever. I gave my son an unusual name with unusual spelling, not realising how hard it would be for others to say - but people constantly make mistakes and I know now that later it will be annoying for him. Maybe different spelling would be worth a try :)
I don't actually like it very much sorry :o But if you like it then go for it :thumbsup: I'm sure that when you're baby comes along it will suit her and everyone who doesn't like the name will warm to it!
