I'd think that in 30 yrs time the number of people who knew who Esther Williams was would be limited... unless your unborn DD turns out to a new swimming sensation

Esther is one of my favourite names although Madonna has it as her kabballah name if that bothers you

I'd wonder how ell she swam and if she grinned a lot!

(P.S. To clarify, I love the name Esther but would inwardly snurk at the movie star connection)

Do you mean as in the name Esther, which I really like, or the fact it's the name of a Hollywood star/swimmer from the 1950s?

I like esther a lot.
I know Esther Williams is obvioulsy the name of that swimmer - movie star, but I wouldn't laugh at all.

I like the name Esther BUT unless she is a stunner as a teen/young woman it might be a bit frumpish iyswim.

Thank you and bum...I know my DH is going to veto that one!

I absolutely love Lily, but think it sounds stupid with Williams!

Hey ho, I'll keep reading!

Not LOL, but inwardly snurk, I'm afraid.
