Opinions on Tiffany?

So it’s quite an 80s name now, don’t think it’s in top 100 so unlikely to be another at school?

When I hear Tiffany I think either Breakfast at Tiffany or the jewellery. OH thinks of Eastenders Tiffaneeeee said in a cockney accent 😂 is it tacky and chavvy?

It's been ruined by the EE character.

tammytoby · 07/01/2019 07:32

I don't like it.

manicinsomniac · 06/01/2019 23:10

I knew a little girl called Tiffany a while ago - I think she'd be 9 now.

I'm not overly keen but I don't dislike it. I do wonder if a subconscious Eastenders association is in my head though because, in theory, it's a name I ought to really like - 3 syllables and a bit frilly!

I knew that a lot of posters on here wouldn't like it...but I like it.

Awful.

Choosinganame · 06/01/2019 17:31

I hate it when a name is slated and there's clearly someone on the thread with a child of that name.
I think it's lovely and would actually seem quite refreshing and unusual now.

SuziQ10 · 06/01/2019 17:24

No way.

dalmatianmad · 06/01/2019 17:09

Awful chavvy name. Up there with Courtney and Chelsea 🙄

weegiehere · 06/01/2019 17:01

I actually quite like it. Much better than all the Eva's and Ava's!

Peachesandcream30 · 06/01/2019 16:53

Horrible! Really horrible. Like a stripper from an American comedy film.

BackoftheAdge · 05/01/2019 23:40

It reminds me of Tiffany from Eastenders and also the local strip club round here is called Tiffany’s Grin

DianaBlythe · 05/01/2019 21:27

I’d be worried you’re setting yourself up for having to give expensive jewellery for milestone birthdays but other than that I think it’s perfectly fine to use!

RedDwarves · 05/01/2019 21:23

Really don't like it. It also seems tacky to me, and I'm not sure why as neither Breakfast at Tiffany's or Tiffany & Co are tacky.

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 05/01/2019 21:22

I love it!

BlancheM · 05/01/2019 21:14

I know a Tisiphone which is similar but 'naicer'

tryinganewname · 05/01/2019 21:11

I like it, I have a friend who's late 20s called Tiffany and she completely suits it.

MollyHuaCha · 05/01/2019 21:02

Awful name.

flumpybear · 05/01/2019 21:00

People will always make fun of names at school - I was called more constructive names like Spliff than fanny to be honest

bridgetreilly · 05/01/2019 20:58

I think we're alone now.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 05/01/2019 20:57

No, not keen.

sheldonstwin · 05/01/2019 20:56

Tiffany Trump. Nuff said.

@LaBelleSausage my OH said the same about Annabelle (bell end) 🙄 men!

You can blame DH for that!
He’s ruined loads of names by pointing things like that out. I really liked the name Isabelle and he ruined it for my by pronouncing it Is-A-Bell ever time (he’s scouse, so Bell = Bellend to him)

Santaisfastasleepatlast · 05/01/2019 20:42

Dd has gotten to 12 without any derogatory name calling!!

@LaBelleSausage 😂😂😂 I never thought about it having fanny in it!
My OH hates it anyway so it’s a no go just wondered whether people thought it was classic or tacky lol
