What is your all time favourite girls name? Doesn’t need to be current or even traditional, just your favourite.

All the women I've met named Rachel, Kate or Jo have always been great women so I guess they're my top 3!

Madeleine

Loved it forever but never used it.

ComeOnGordon · 11/03/2019 19:21

Luisa (weirdly don’t like Louisa) or Vanessa. Wanted to name dd Vanessa but she was born when Vanessa Feltz was ag the height of her fame and people would have thought I was naming her after that annoying woman. I wasn’t - had a lovely Vanessa friend at school

And also Hephzibah.
