Jodie

[Pantstootight]

The more I say it, the more I like it.
I think it's lovely and I like it as it's not in the top 200, some opinions when I've sounded it out have been quite negative, Jodie Marsh, chavy etc..

Mn opinions please...

[smartyclogs]

Love it.
You're right it's not high in the popularity charts, makes it more unique.
It's nice to have a name that it's shared by half the class or school or area where you live.
Not weird, not too posh... thumbs up from me!

[squoosh]

I quite like it. It's one of those names I thought was impossibly glamorous when I was about 10 years old.

I much prefer it to all that Harriet/Florence malarkey that's everywhere at the moment.

[GotToBeInItToWinIt]

Sorry I don't like it. It was quite a common name in my year at school (im 30) and I grew up in a place where they pronounce it 'jodeh' so that's all I think about when I hear it!

[CaptainAnkles]

I think it's rather sweet and not at all common nowadays.

[KoalaDownUnder]

No. Jodie is pure 70s/80s to me, and not in a good way. Sisters would be Tammy and Kelly.

[callamia]

I knew a few in the 80s too - I think of it as quite an 80s name. It is quite sweet, but I'm not sure it's quite ready for a return yet. Having said that, Jodie Kidd wears it well - so maybe I'm talking nonsense.

[cupofsneeze]

I really like it but i'm another one who thinks names like Margaret/Mabel and Ethel are awful even though they are very popular locally.

[EeekNumber4]

I know lots of Jodie's in their mid thirties so it's a very 70's/80's name to me.

[EmpressOfJurisfiction]

Jodie Foster! Yes, great name.

[DramaAlpaca]

I was at school with one I couldn't stand so it has negative connotations for me. That aside, it's quite a nice name.

[Jeggie]

Great name!

[Sophronia]

It's my cousin's name, she's 14. I'm not particularly keen on it but it's very sweet on her.

[Mintyy]

I think it's a lovely name and I immediately thought of the wonderful Jodie Foster (not Jodie Marsh) when I saw it in your thread title.

[johendy]

I really like it. What about Jody?

[manicinsomniac]

I like it. And I don't know any younger than mid 20s so it will be nice and original.

[flowerbum]

My best pal at school was jodie, a beautiful person inside and out. I think it's due a revival!

[Pixa]

I like it, but then I would.

[Penguito]

DS has 2 Jodie's in his nursery class!

[rockinrobintweet]

haven't heard of a Jodie since school. gorgeous name- go for it!

[Violettatrump]

Not keen on Jodie but Josie is lovely and short for Josephine.

[Violettatrump]

It's of an era like Joanne.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

It's terribly dated.

[shakemysilliesout]

I'd rather a Jodie/ Kelly revival than a Pamela and Barbara revival. Because jodie is 80s it seems more fun to me than Ethel and Mavis.

[maggiethemagpie]

My friend called her baby Jodie. I can't say I was that keen on it. It does sound a bit dated to my ears.

[GotToBeInItToWinIt]

Ooh no shake Kelly is awful.
