Guessing game V!

Merry twixmas! Xmas Grin

We have reached thread 5(!) of the baby names Guessing Game.

This was the (brilliant) brain child of @scotstar back in March 2018. Smile

All are welcome, rules of this game are pretty straightforward - someone describes a name. Whoever solves the clues is then in charge of describing the next name. Simple! Make the clues as fiendish or straightforward as you like. Grin

Laura?

ThatshallotBaby · 13/05/2022 14:31

Frances?

ThatshallotBaby · 13/05/2022 11:19

Ok I’ll think some more

finallychangedmyusername · 13/05/2022 10:34

Neither Beatrice nor Beatrix, sorry.

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 13/05/2022 06:40

Sorry Beatrix?

ThatshallotBaby · 13/05/2022 06:40

Beatrice?

finallychangedmyusername · 12/05/2022 22:18

Thanks @ThatshallotBaby!

Here's another:

Will this lady attired in a quinessentially English-style, give you some time, perhaps to narrate a tale of a meadow and small home?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 12/05/2022 20:46

Yes!!!
Brilliant

finallychangedmyusername · 12/05/2022 09:56

Evangeline? (Kelly McDonald's character in Nanny McPhee)?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 12/05/2022 06:40

Nope
She helped look after lots of children after their mum died, and ended up marrying their dad
She is very kind

finallychangedmyusername · 11/05/2022 21:49

Phoebe?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 09/05/2022 06:30

Nope
she had a fairytale wedding in the snow

finallychangedmyusername · 08/05/2022 22:40

Abigail?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 05/05/2022 09:10

Loves children and helps their carer. Also might like a spot of jelly.

finallychangedmyusername · 04/05/2022 15:57

Well played @ThatshallotBaby and over to you!

OP posts:
Ellmau · 03/05/2022 22:28

Yes!

Diana Princess of Wales said she wanted to be queen in people's hearts; Roman goddess of teh moon; Diana Mitford/Mosley was a Bright Young Thing in the 20s, and poor marriage choices might relate to either her or the Princess.

ThatshallotBaby · 29/04/2022 06:27

Diana?

Ellmau · 28/04/2022 21:39

No.

More classical.

finallychangedmyusername · 28/04/2022 19:57

Miranda?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 27/04/2022 22:15

No.

finallychangedmyusername · 27/04/2022 21:29

Helena?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 27/04/2022 20:37

Queen of hearts. Lady of the moon. A bright young thing. Made poor marriage choices.

finallychangedmyusername · 27/04/2022 19:41

Haha, yes, too easy obviously!

"I'm just mad about Saffron" references Donovan's "Mellow Yellow".

"Fabulous" is Absolutely Fabulous, Saffron/Saffy Monsoon.

Spicy - saffron is a yellow spice

Back to you @Ellmau !

OP posts:
Ellmau · 27/04/2022 18:59

Saffron?

finallychangedmyusername · 27/04/2022 18:11

I do like the name Christopher. 😍

I'm just mad about this next fabulous and spicy name.
