I prefer DC's being the only one with their name in their classes (sorry to be one of them!Confused) it's just a personal preference.

I've really took a liking to the name Hazel but I've heard it numerous times in films, books etc. But I've never heard of one in real life.

So, do you know any? Do you think it's a fairly popular name? Do you like it/have any negative connotations? Grin

I know an 18 year old Hazel and she is SUPER cool and just started at Harvard, if that helps?! I don't think it's ever going to be the kind of name that takes over the world but it is a really nice name.

Not personally. Julia Roberts daughter is called Hazel.

One of our dogs...because she's a little brown nut! Wished I'd saved it for a d's though.

I'm a Hazel in my 30s. I love my name! I have met a couple of little Hazels, a few old lady Hazels and one in her late 40s but I would still say its pretty rare. I love that it can't really be shortened ( don't dare call me Haze though! Go for it!
