Sorry to those to those who don't like the posh/chav threads, but I really need to know honestly.
Araminta has been tentatively on my list for a while now, surely in this day and age it is safe for non upper class people to use?
would appreciate your thoughts.

I don't like it much, prefer Arabella which is also quite posh IMO.

Yes. Far too pompous, imho.

Never heard of it. I think it's quite pretty.

Sorry didn't even know it was a name - posh or otherwise. I have heard of Amarantha, the Greek name though.
