What do you think of Cressida as a girl's name?

By far my favourite girls name EVER. Wanted it for DD 1 and DD2 but DH wouldn't agree. I think that it's quite regal for an adult and also think that Cressie is a cute nickname for a baby/little girl.

She sounds like her hair should be growing out of the top of a cut-off egg shell.

I knew a Cressida a few years back. She was an uber independent, confident girl she really suited the name! I like it, unusual but not too much so! ..if that makes senseWink

I'm sorry, but I don't like it. It is a brand of suspension files (not in the UK though I don't think?).
