Wren was my great-grandmother's maiden name. So I've always been partial to it. I love it as a fn, as is. But it could also work as a nn for
Renee /
Renata,
Karen or
Lauren /
Laurentine ("-teen") /
Laurentia ("lo-REN-shuh").
I've had the combo
Wren Victoria /
Victoria Wren in my head ever since I saw a
Christmas card. It was a Victorian painting of a wren on a snowy brick wall, pecking at a red berry on a bush. It seemed so perfect.
