Hi! Can you list the poshest girls names that you know? thank you. Have a great day!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Has no-one mentioned Nigella?

Re the telegraph announcements, not only do you have to choose posh names,but your child has to have at least 2 names (a bit amateur), 3 names (learning fast) or 4 (full on posh), as well as their surname.

Agree with a pp.

The posh people I know (in their twenties and thirties) are called either things like Poppy, Anna, Georgia, Laura, Katherine, Emily, Jane

or

Mariella, Cosima, Cressida, Clementine, Arabella, Olympia.

There is no in between!

Ooh, hats off to the PP who suggested Telegraph birth announcements

...a son, Barney Bear, a brother for Tiggy and Effie

Slightly off topic but does anyone know why so many of the DT announcements have random surnames (not the mother’s maiden name) as a middle name? Eg the top one has Livingstone, further down you’ve got Fisher, Tillman and Osgood. I’ve never figured out if it is eg the grandparent’s maiden name or some strange trend 😅 maybe that’s the key to a posh name!

I like the person who's maiden name was 'Baker Baker'

amlie8 · 23/08/2023 17:39

Something classic, but with a nickname like Muffy or Biffy. The sillier, the better.

ChocolateCinderToffee · 23/08/2023 17:34

Family name.

Kayla
Madison

CapEBarra · 23/08/2023 17:10

Just look at the royals

Catherine
Elizabeth
Beatrice
Eugenie
Sarah
Diana
Sophie
Charlotte
Anne
Mary
Margaret

The ‘proper’ royals tend on the whole to have relatively plain names - they don’t distract, they’re not quirky, they’re appropriate in any setting. They’re also not that interesting or exciting but I don’t think that’s a bad thing - you can’t really go wrong with them.

StrictlyAFemaleFemale · 23/08/2023 16:47

DDs name has been mentioned 😁

I've always thought Beatrice and Eugenie sounded posher than William and Harry.

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 23/08/2023 16:47

Poshest person I knew was called Margarita with the nickname Binky.

Others have equally absurd nicknames such as Bunny or Pidge.

There was also a Carola.
