Hello,
We're having our first baby in January and thought we'd already got ourselves sorted with two possible girl's names that we absolutely love: Ethel and Maude.
But absolutely everyone I've mentioned these names to has either gone 'ugh!' or 'what?'. I don't want her getting a negative/non-plussed reaction every time she tells someone her name!
Are they really that bad?
I also like Dora, Elsie, Violet and Dinah. My boyfriend is quite keen on Amelia with Milly as a nickname.
What do you think of these, and could you suggest any other similar names we could consider?
Thanks very much x
