There is so many not keen on Natalie and I have no idea why;( please share your thoughts. Alice seems so popular recently and I haven't heard of many Natalies lately.

I think Alice is horrid. I've never met a nice one.

I really like Natalie, I know one who is 5 but otherwise I expect many people aren't too keen on it as it was very popular in the 80s so many of us on here were probably at school with one, and with my example of Alice, knowing someone with the name can cloud your judgement.

I like both and if I had a girl they'd both be on my short list

Alice
I have one, she's 20
I really don't like Natalie, I don't like the hard t in the middle and the nickname Nat is not nice

I'm a Natalie- yes I'm an 80's child as a poster mentioned above!

For what it's worth I love my name. I don't get called Nat because I don't like it, everyone knows to use my full name. I do have a nickname but it has nothing to do with my real name.

Alice is pretty too though. Congratulations Grin

Natalie as it's less popular than Alice.

Both are lovely, but prefer Natalia to Natalie because of the 80s vibe.

Natalie. Alice is everywhere and a bit boring now. Natalie is really uncommon actually, I only know one adult one these days. It's pretty without being too girly. Talie also works as a NN

Natalie. Just lovely. 'Talie' would work well as NN.

Natalie or Natalia.

I find Alice a bit insipid.

Natalie, it might be a bit 80s but I like it, it's different and looks elegant to me.

I'm not keen on Alice, it's bland imo, I know 4 who are all teenagers alone.
