Oh well done @throwcushions you must be right 🙂

throwcushions · 09/06/2018 19:55

I think it fits everything (centre drawn out - elicit, completely happy is name meaning, cool beverage is the nickname Fizz and swish is the nickname Flick? Just can't figure out invoiced! Fee??)

Thank you Scotstar for the brilliant thread! But also curse you because I am so addicted I can't stop checking it!!

throwcushions · 09/06/2018 19:51

Felicity?

finallychangedmyusername · 09/06/2018 16:32

Sorry @Bexter801, it's not Regina.

Bexter801 · 09/06/2018 15:53

Regina? (I'm getting desperate! Not got one right in ages)

finallychangedmyusername · 09/06/2018 14:48

Nope sorry

Bexter801 · 09/06/2018 13:42

Giniveve?

finallychangedmyusername · 09/06/2018 13:21

Not Gemima sorry

Bexter801 · 09/06/2018 13:07

Gemima?

FintyTin · 08/06/2018 22:07

@finallychangedmyusername - I have been singing it all day Grin.

@Scotstar - thank you for starting it all off!

Scotstar · 08/06/2018 21:36

A 3rd thread! I thought it had died a death! You are all far too clever for me lol

finallychangedmyusername · 08/06/2018 21:19

Yay, thank you @FintyTin! I got the busy bee clue quite early (hence my guess of Beatrice) but struggled to take that any further until inspiration finally hit me. Good clues!

(Is anyone else singing "Your name was Deborah, Deb-o-rah. It never suited ya.."?! Showing my age possibly!)

Anyway, next name:

She can have her centre drawn out, yet is completely happy. To her friends she's a cool beverage, over in a quick swish and invoiced.

FintyTin · 08/06/2018 21:07

It could indeed, @finallychangedmyusername - you nailed it the clues.

I was going for a double meaning on the ‘fairness’ - Deborah Harry (Blondie) as well as the Biblical reference. My last clue alluded to ‘the lovely Debbie McGee’.

Well done, and over to you Grin.

finallychangedmyusername · 08/06/2018 11:25

Ah, could it be Deborah? (Book of Judges = fairness, Dragon's Den Deborah Meaden = fiery, busy as a bee)

finallychangedmyusername · 08/06/2018 09:57

Joan?

FintyTin · 07/06/2018 23:07

Another owner of the name is known for being lovely.

LadyGAgain · 07/06/2018 22:44

Yes please!

FintyTin · 07/06/2018 19:44

No, sorry.

Another clue?

finallychangedmyusername · 07/06/2018 18:04

Beatrice?

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 07/06/2018 10:42

Elizabeth (diminutives)?

throwcushions · 07/06/2018 09:18

Isolde?

FintyTin · 07/06/2018 09:12

Not Justine or Judy, I'm afraid.

Bexter801 · 06/06/2018 22:41

Judy?

finallychangedmyusername · 06/06/2018 18:53

Justine?

FintyTin · 06/06/2018 09:23

😄 I had to really dredge my memory for Punky Brewster!! Excellent clues, @throwcushions.

This lady is always busy. She’s known for her fairness, but can be rather fiery.
