I like more traditional names - Emily, Georgina, Grace, Rose, Madeleine, Olivia. Although having said that, if I were lucky enough to have a daughter, I always fancied Annie-Catherine.
O prefer old fashioned names as well Barmaid -I even like my middle name Helen.My daughters name was old fashioned 19yrs ago but not now -bit of a blow but at least she's one of the older ones with that name -thankfully my sons is still traditional isnt it Cru lol!!
BTW-ignore LT -it will be off by Monday -no social skills at all.Dont bother with my punctiation etc Lt -I just prefer to post this way.
LUCY why is it, if someone chooses a different name for there children then they get judged for it. it is only a name and does not make them a bad mother.
I've been told who LT is but cant say on here -but youre not far wrong jugglering -just ignore it -it will be removed by Monday -thats why I couldnt give a tinkers cuss -tee hee !!
I also liked Rosalind -for my son but obviously he was a boy lol
My friends daughter is Miriam -lovely name.
I love all the Irish names as well -would have to get a dictionery to spell them but love the pronunciation.
I suppose it depends on your age -with me being older I prefer the traditional but whose to say that the ones nowadays which some find chav wont be traditional in years to come -after all in 80yrs time there will be a little old lady called Paige and no-one will bat an eyelid and they will speak of those new fangled names like Elizabeth lol
look, whatever our individual preducices are, we are all free to call our children whatever, but experience has shown that we do actually judge people by their nomiker.If you call your daughter Lola, No one expects her to be a brain surgeon. I know that isn't fair but I think it is a sad fact of life
