Full disclosure: the babies we are naming are hens, not humans, so no need to worry about school bullying or job applications

Obviously Henrietta is on the list, open to any and all suggestions

Camilĺa is fairly posh I think. Don't suppose there's many working class ones. Also Persephone which is dire. Can't believe any body would call a child that. Camilla is quite a nice name though.

I know a working class Camilla. She’d be around 22 now. I remember thinking it was an odd choice of name.

Agapantha
Bunty
Cressida
Philomena
Theodora

If you had five of them, I think you could do far worse than having one Bunty and four Marys Grin

Caggie obviously!

Show quote history

To me, Caggie sounds far too similar to claggy - which means that something is caked in mud; or, in my part of the country, something similar-looking but considerably less pleasant than mud!
