So close to that 2, but this isn’t horseshoes or hand grenades. (1,2,5!)

Three! [boom]

NANNY → Better than I thought it’d be. Try E and common consonants
LEAST → Wow. F or B. Try…
BEAST
Lucky guess for a birdie.

I had no idea where to go after my standard opener, so I Googled “five letter words u n i e” for a list of valid words, and “ennui” and “cunei” were the only two that didn’t end with E, so I went with the one I knew the definition of.
I would’ve thought “ennui” was too obscure a word to have been in the original Wordle, but apparently in the old list of correct answers it would’ve been used on October 9th of this year. (Today’s word would’ve been “risky”, which has not yet appeared since the NYT abandoned the old list.)

Only got it due to knowing, after 3, that “E” was the first letter, and only the first letter — and that “I” was the last letter, and only the last letter — and, with the “N” in the middle, nothing else occurred to me, and maybe nothing else exists.

Happy to get a 4. I had a hard time coming up with any valid words after my third guess, finally saw ENNUI, so I put that in and got lucky. Scoredle points out that the seemingly more likely INDEX was an option, but fortunately I didn’t see it.

I thought I had it with EQUIP! It fit so perfectly. (I don’t look at the used word list, so I don’t know if it was there.)

Google voice is translating my pronunciation of ennui as on Wii, which has a certain je ne sais quois.

I thought this word might give people more trouble than it has. I was fortunate to find three letters right away, but had a hard time placing them.
But, like @The_Other_Waldo_Pepper, I knew it started with E and ended with I, with N in the middle; and indeed there was only one option left.
Band name!

ENNUI… the new PINEY.
What a bogus word (IMHO).
Never heard of it.
Though I’m certain folks around here rely on this workhorse of a word daily in their verbiage, I surely don’t.
No 3s for me lately. At least it’s not another 6!!
