Georgia, Chloe or Abigail?

What would you say is the 'vibe' of each name and which do you prefer?

I like all three names. Probably slightly prefer Georgina to Georgia, but Georgia is still good.

I would say Chloe is my favourite overall. I know it was used a lot about 20/30 years ago, but it's still a very pretty classic name.

Georgia by far the nicest. Only ever known one irl
Chloe is a bit bland /dull for me and I have met so many over the years
Abigail just has a harsh sound to my ears, although I do like Abby.

The parents pronounced it 'jaw ja' and spelt it jorja. The girl still give me nightmares after all these years. Absolute little terror 😲🤯
Apologies to mum if she is on mn though

I'm not sure about a character description for each one, but I love both Abigail and Georgia, while I find Chloe over-used and as a result a bit bland these days.

One of those is my name and it's very interesting reading assumptions about me based on my name Grin

Chocmallows · 14/05/2019 23:54

Abby, then Chloe.

llamawearingasombrero · 14/05/2019 23:50

Flame me if you must but I've known kids with all three names and only the Abigails have been polite and well behaved . The others have been little terrors and some with families having social problems.

DramaAlpaca · 14/05/2019 23:43

Abigail is Biblical so I suppose the most classic. I'm not mad on it, but it's the best of the three.

I don't much like the 'Chl' sound in Chloe, and it's dated, too.

I really don't like Georgia, it's a clunky feminine form of George that doesn't sound nice to me.

DulcieRay · 14/05/2019 23:12
  1. Chloe
  2. Georgia
  3. Abigail
Sophronia · 14/05/2019 23:06

They’re all a bit 90s, but Abigail is more of a classic than the other two.

Frazzled2207 · 14/05/2019 23:04

I teach and both the Abigails I know are very studious academic types.

Chloe is so common that it doesn't really have a "type".

Not come across any Georgias locally (NW).

TurquoiseDress · 14/05/2019 23:00

Out of those 3 I prefer Chloe

I had initially wanted it for DC2 but DH really wasn't keen so we went with something else

We know two Chloes, both under 7- one has French parents so they pronounce the name with such a lovely accent

PlatypusLeague · 14/05/2019 20:30

Georgia - either a horsey Sloane or Essex party girl
Chloe - likely to be arty and bright, otherwise more of a brash Z-list type with a fitness video
Abigail - intelligent, academic, kind, shy, pretty, willowy, good at tennis

Hanab · 14/05/2019 19:35

Georgia ❤️

All the Abbys I know are really lary Grin
Chloe - quiet
Georgia - could be anything

I once worked in a nursery up north and 'jor-ja' was an absolute nightmare. We literally threw a party when she moved onto primary school.

Expressedways · 14/05/2019 18:27

Honestly I’m not wild about any of them, they’re all a bit 1990s Essex (I’ve never seen TOWIE but I knew lots of girls with these names growing up in the 90s in Essex). If I had to pick one then definitely Abigail.

llamawearingasombrero · 14/05/2019 18:21

'Clo -eh' sounds terrible as does 'jaw- jah ' Abigail sounds neutral to me

Pepperdino · 14/05/2019 17:24

I think all three names have featured on Towie at some point Grin

Rainandwine · 14/05/2019 17:22

Just seen the comment before mine Grin
I haven’t actually watched TOWIE so I’m probably wrong.

Rainandwine · 14/05/2019 17:21

I think Abigail & Georgia are TOWIE sounding
Chloe I think is more a name for anyone

flameycakes · 14/05/2019 17:09

Love Abigail, Chloe and Georgia are very Towie x

DiscoZebra · 14/05/2019 16:59

Have to say Abigail (I may be slightly biased - definitely not shy or quiet though). Lots of nn options too, Abby, Abi, Abbie etc

llamawearingasombrero · 14/05/2019 16:51

Abiagail. The other names are now very 'common '. Abigail still sounds a bit 'upper' ( if that makes sense)
