Thoughts on Winifred?

[ScarletOak]

I really like it, which Winnie as a nickname.

What do you think?

[theagedparent]

I love it

[diplodoris]

Not keen, sorry

[emmyloo2]

I love Winnie as a nick name but not sure about Winifred tbh...

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Sorry - don't like it.

[Magalyxyz]

I love Winnie, but not Winifred.

Winnie Mandela is unfortunate I suppose, but I still like it.

[Hedwig3]

LOVE it and all the nicknames

[boodleboot]

its fab. just fab x

[BertieBasset]

I'd be worried about winnie the pooh - kids and poo jokes

[JackieNo]

I don't think I like it - it says Winnie the pooh, or Winnie the Witch to me, or Winston Churchill.

[differentID]

I love Winifred, with Freda as a nickname.

[Rockbird]

Hideous. Not all old lady names should be revived.

[jellybeans]

old lady

[LetThereBeRock]

Horrid.

[NiceCuppaT]

Winnie is sweet, but Winifred is just mean!!

[MissTFied]

Ugly

[marriednotdead]

Noooooooo. Agree with rockbird.

'T'was my gran's name. She hated it. She would have been 98 yesterday. I was going to give it to DD as a middle name, but Mum and Gran both talked me out of it!

[riojaguzzler]

Sorry- don't like it!! It screams 'old lady' and agree with the Pooh jokes

[LifeOfKate]

I like it. My grandmother was called Winefred and if we ever have a DD, it will be her middle name

[EricNorthmansmistress]

Don't do it. My mum is Winifred - it was old fashioned when she was a girl and she hated it. She got called Fred and Winnie the Pooh and still doesn't like it much (though she goes by Wini - I prefer it to Winnie if you really must)

[LiquoriceLila]

Awful sorry

[seenyertoeslately]

Really don't like it, sorry.

[belledechocolatefluffybunny]

Don't like it, there's too much scope for bullying (weener etc)
