Still TTC but we really love the names Bridget and Tiffany for a girl. What are your opinions on these names? We don't know if they are too dated? Do any of you have kids with older fashioned names? Thanks

Hey thank you all so far!
And no, we are in the UK

OP are you in the States? The country might make a difference.

I quite like Bridget but you sometimes you need to meet (well see) your baby to see if a name will suit them - if that makes sense.

Wow, those are two very different names, completely at opposite ends of the spectrum for me. That seems very surprising to me that someone would love both.

I really dislike Tiffanny, particularly with the renewed Trump angle. I think it is very dated. I would imagine virtually all Tiffannys were born in or very near the 1980s.

I quite like Bridget spelled Brigid, not so much spelled the way you have chosen. It is definitely old-fashioned rather than dated I think, and I could easily see it regaining a certain popularity. I would expect most Brigids I would meet to have an Irish family connection somewhere.

Tiffany sounds very "big hair", "daddy's credit card".

Bridget sounds "pudding bowl haircut" and sensible shoes.

Very different connotations but neither of them great, to me.

What else is on your list?

Not a fan of Tiffany, just isn't to my taste.
Love Bridget.
My DD's have "older" names.
