I've always loved this name, but rarely hear it nowadays... Is it awful?

Oops, she isn't a comedian, she's a journalist but appears on entertainment programmes like HIGNFY.

It's a pretty name. I think of Camilla Long the comedian.

I like it.
Classic

Lovely name. It's a known name, but not over-used / too popular at all. Also quite timeless, you wouldn't be able to date a Camilla to a particular decade.

Very classic

I like it

I like it, very pretty. Never met one in real life (but two Camilles.)

Lovely and unusual. But yes people will refer to CB-P but she will be long gone by the time your daughter is an adult!

I prefer camille myself.

Well I'd day it's very much associated with one lady. Up to you if that's a positive or negative

I love it!!! Wanted to use it myself (long story) but unfortunately I couldn't! I think it's a gorgeous, elegant name x
