Something that is ageless, elegant and beautiful.

I have an Ottilie which I think is all of these, what are peoples suggestions along a similar line?

Ottilie has always been a very special name to me SimplyNigella, it was my Great Grandmothers name, due to divorce and deed poll changes our last name was no longer the same as my Grandfather's. I promised him at the age of 10! That should I ever have a daughter I would name her Ottilie after his Mother and our family would once again share at least one name... So I did, I'm just very lucky Ottilie seems to have come into fashion recently. I do like Jemima it's not that common.

Its interesting that people's views on elegant and timeless is slightly different. That's not meant to be snide, just an observation Smile
