What are people's thoughts on the name Millie? Me & husband know we are having a girl but really struggling with girls names.

At first I loved it & it's by far my favourite that we've both agreed on - others are Sophie & Isabella. I know it's our choice but just wondered generally on people's thoughts. Xxx

Millie is the word for lady bits in our house, sorry

Thanks all, I think I may be swaying towards Sophie now! I remembered my friend has a dog called Millie, gosh it's so hard!

I suppose it's OK if it's short for something, like Millicent or Romilly, but it's a bit insubstantial as a name in its own right.

I prefer your other suggestions, especially Sophie.

Sophie and Isabella are nicer. Millie is a bit cutesy.

I really ought to like this name because my favourite movie ever is Thoroughly Modern Millie and the character is brilliant, but I just don't.

There's nothing wrong with it, I've just not warmed to it.

I would use it in a heartbeat if I had another baby.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 17/06/2017 21:54

I prefer Isabella or Sophie.

I work with children and hear it all the time.

It's lovely. I really like it.

You're not in Belfast obviously! I find it very inelegant, v different to your other choices.
