Bertha sounds like a 'fat' name. If you have even any tendency in your family to being overweight please dont call your daughter this!! ( I am overweight btw so not being judgemental just protective over teasing in the future!)

I like Gertrude - but none of the others. They all sound like my mums mates.
Sorry.

I quite like Gertie actually. Gertrude Grace.

pinkteddy · 20/01/2012 13:15

Another vote for Grace.

Bertha is lovely or why not simply grace? Thats is very nice.

LouMacca · 20/01/2012 13:12

From your list Paula Grace. Don't like any of the others.

Shirley Grace is cute. I think Shirley is going to have a revival. Isn't it Anne Shirley in Anne of Green Gables? Love that!

I also like Paulina.

evamummy · 20/01/2012 12:58

I like Paula and Shirley best.

RillaBlythe · 20/01/2012 12:52

Shirley. I actually really like Shirley.

Ohnanawhatsmynickname · 20/01/2012 12:47

Faverolles · 20/01/2012 12:46
