I have just received a phone call from a friend's DP. She's just had a healthy girl of 7lb and, after seeing the baby, has decided on the name Gloria.

I was like Confused 'sorry did you say Glorious?'. 'No', he said, 'Gloria'.

I can't help but feel this is an absolutely horrendous name for a newborn girl. What do other people think? And do I say something to this effect before they register it?

No, say nothing. It's a name.

The only comment I had about Gloria, before I opened the thread and found you plotting to change a baby's name, was that it reminded me of one of the later baddies in the Buffy/Angel ouvre. Not an insurmountable problem, really.
