Frankie is awful. Petra is a German Shepherd Dog from the 70's. There's nice names out there. Choose one of those.

Tigger you're remembering the Blue Peter dog! I decided not to mention it, but it was my first thought too. We must be of the same vintage.

We must, Drama, but it was very popular off the tv as well. I knew a few.

I like Peta rather than Petra.

I think Petra is nice. To me sounds like a Petra would be intelligent and sophisticated x

Frankie OK if a nickname for Francesca or Frances (which is one of my favourite names). I don't like it as a girls name in its own right.

I do think Blue Peter when I hear Petra but it is a nice name.
