The response was not good. I was named after a song from the seventies.

nope - although apparently my name is the most 'miserable in Britain' www.dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/91618 so I dont need to hear about how rubbish the name is too

I like the name Valerie, I like Bridge-chic names though! Belinda, Vivien, Marianne Susan, Valerie, Margot.. My mum has friends called this. Weird, but I think they are what would stand out now.

All very positve for mine.
It's a classic apparently, not unusual but not over-used.

My name, and yes I have looked it up a little too much, is a feminised version of a male name starting with s, and everyone says it is either dull, dull, too common or too 70s/80s.

Mine comes up quite often. It seems to be classic, beautiful and boring. It was not at all common when I was a child, but it does seem that about 1 in 10 little girls has it now.

Most people seem to like my name. It was the most popular girls' name a few years back. I like it very much, although the common nickname (which I don't use) is ugly, IMO.

Mine is a dated Scottish name that is due for revival apparently
