What are people’s thoughts/opinions on this name please? 🤔 Any suggestions on this or similar names would be fantastic or names that would go with it (middle names etc)
Thankyou any help is appreciated.

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I love it.

Beautiful. I know a constance / Connie. She's a teenager. She's the only one I've heard of irl I think.

LadySlipper · 12/03/2021 19:14

Love it.

Beautiful. I've known two Constances, would happily name my daughter after either of them.

JayAlfredPrufrock · 12/03/2021 19:12

I like it.

Clemency could be an alternative

DollyParton2 · 12/03/2021 19:10

Really like it

thelegohooverer · 12/03/2021 18:58

I love it. I feel like it should feel old and fusty but I can’t help really liking it.

thenonsensepotter · 12/03/2021 18:54

Personally I think it's very fusty and frumpy.
And Connie as a nickname is a bit meh.

Was on my choice for the girls many years ago but chose something else in the end. We have an auntie Constance but didn't like the name being shortened to Con.

Like the name but not the nickname.

I don't have a recommendation for a middle name but perhaps something with one syllable e.g. Constance Jane.

slowtik · 12/03/2021 18:47

Absolutely love it!

MrPanks · 12/03/2021 18:46

Lovely. I have a Spanish friend called Constanza- Connie for short. I love Constance. It's timeless.

savvy7 · 12/03/2021 18:46

I like it too - a good combination of a classy name but still uncommon. Go for it!

Druidlookingidiot · 12/03/2021 18:44

I love it. It's classical and lovely. Connie is a nickname is also lovely.
