What do you think of these names? I think they are v unusual but I quite like them after meeting people with both these names recently.

Perhaps, though I reckon tis the name and most schools have one! Not biased or traumatised by the Audra experience at all! I'm sure she grew up to be lovely!

Fimbo · 20/07/2009 15:27

Maybe she moved!

sugarpop · 20/07/2009 15:21

Ah nope Yorkshire!

Sugarpop - are you from Scotland by chance?

sugarpop · 20/07/2009 15:19

Hm me too Fimbo maybe we were at the same school!

I was at school with an Audra, she was a huge pita.

That alone puts me off the name.

Audrey is a lot nicer.

I'm a bit obsessed with the name Audra, but not sure if I have the guts to call new dd that ...
I met one once who was lovely, and the name flicks up when I'm watching Private Practice and taunts me!

Know 2 Audras both are fowl! Afraid it has put me off the name for life. Audrey old ladyish Adeline nicer!

MamaHobgoblin · 20/07/2009 13:12

Is Audra made-up? Because if it is, it's the only name I've liked that isn't a 'proper' name! It's very dignified. I like.

(Unless...isn't it what the Speaker in The Commons has to shout? )

Audra and Audrey are nice. Don't like Adeline.

What about Ada or Phedra?

magbags · 19/07/2009 09:00

Prefer Audra.

Scorpette · 18/07/2009 19:49

Audra is very nice.

bellissima · 18/07/2009 18:57

Prefer good old Audrey. Audra sounds like you got confused between (my baby has an) Aura and Audrey.

Adeline okay.
