WDYT of Prudence

Well, the title says it all really - what do you think of the name Prudence.
I think it ought to be due a revival! Yes? No?
I have a Pearl already (amongst other dc's), do the two 'P's matter?
Would love all opinions, thanks!

It wouldn't be one that I would choose, but I think it is fab wth Pearl.

Tis my mum's name. She never much liked it but I do. I think Pru is pretty.

nn Pru!!! OF COURSE!!!!! Sorry having a blond moment so forget my thoughts about nn Prude!

I don't think two Ps matter at all. Prue is a lovely nn too.

lechatnoir - we know 2 Connies already (both Constance) alhtough it is a lovely name we cant use it because of this - we want something a little bit more unusual iyswim!

Not keen tbh.

lechatnoir · 16/06/2009 13:36

I definitely don't think two 'P' matter and I think it's a really pretty name that goes well along side Pearl but my only concern would be the nn Prude . What about Constance nn Connie?
