I can't decide! Any opinions to help sway me one way or another.

Bridie / Connie as the preferred nicknames though I would try to use the longer version when possible.

Thanks

Definitely Constance. DH has a cousin who is called 'Connie' and we love the name but obviously can't have it!

Connie is lovely. Bridie is very very old fashioned and not in a good way.

I like them both but I think Bridget is absolutely beautiful! I love Bridie and also had a Great Aunt Bridgey.

I adore Constance, so that would be my choice.

Bridget is OK, but I can't bear Bridie.

Bridget is unique but Constance is likewise a beautiful name. Can't make up which one. Just flip a coin i guess :)

**Farrar, your DH having a cousin with this name doesn't preclude you Kai.g it!
